An evaluation of the background due to atmospheric muons in the ANTARES high
energy neutrino telescope is presented. Two different codes for atmospheric
shower simulation have been used. Results from comparisons between these codes
at sea level and detector level are presented. The first results on the
capability of ANTARES to reject this class of background are given.
