At the age of five, Anna Schaffelhuber first went on a monoski bob. In 2007 she completed a screening course with the German Paralympic ski team and was accepted into the racing team. After she made it onto the podium for the first time at the European Cup in Kühtai in December 2008, she won two slalom victories in Sollefteå, Sweden , in early February 2009 . In the overall ranking of the European Cup 2008/2009, she finished second and qualified for the World Cup of the following year. As the highlight of her first World Cup season, she finished the overall ranking of the Slalom World Cup after three second places in this discipline in second place. She was also successful in the European Cup and at the end of January 2010 she won the Super Combined and Giant Slalom in La Molina, Spain . When she first took part in the Paralympics in 2010, Schaffelhuber crowned her season with a bronze medal in the Super-G at the age of 17 . In addition, she booked two fourth places in the super combined and in the slalom.

Schaffelhuber improved again in the 2010/2011 World Cup season and achieved several podium places in European Cup and World Cup races. With victories in the last three competitions in Arta Terme , Italy , she triumphed in the overall World Cup for the first time in mid-January 2011. At the 2011 Alpine World Ski Championships for disabled athletes in Sestriere , Schaffelhuber then won three gold medals and one silver medal. She relegated Austrian Claudia Lösch to second place in the super combined, slalom and giant slalom. At the end of March 2011, together with the young athlete Anna-Lena Forster, she achieved two double victories at the European Cup finals in La Molina and, after the World Cup success, also secured the overall ranking in the European Cup.

At the 2013 World Championships, she secured the slalom title, as well as silver in the Super-G and giant slalom. In addition, she won the bronze medal in the super combined and in the downhill.

On March 8, 2014 took Schaffelhuber at the Winter Paralympics in 2014 in Sochi her first gold medal at Winter Paralympics in alpine downhill . She also won the Super-G competition two days later. Schaffelhuber was disqualified in the slalom competition because of an alleged starting error, but she was awarded her third gold medal at the Green Table. As a result, she pushed her teammate Anna-Lena Forster to second place. Schaffelhuber also won gold in the super combined and giant slalom . So she won five gold medals in five alpine skiing starts , only the Russian biathlete and cross-country skier Roman Petuschkow won one more gold medal.
