Skiing & glacier world -
Zillertal 3000
6 ski areas come together to create one great entity: Eggalm, Rastkogel, Finkenberg, Penken/Mayrhofen and Ahorn. From December to April there are a total of 196 kilometres of pistes, natural snow and mogul slopes, as well as deep snow slopes to enjoy. 62 state-of-the-art lift facilities convey you up to 3250 metres.
Enjoy challenging piste descents, some of which take you to the centre of Lanersbach and Vorderlanersbach. Start out direct from Pension Jakober on foot and head to the Rastkogel cable car, which is 200 metres away, whisking you off and up into sunshine skiing. Depending on the snow conditions, you can ski down from the Eggalm to the front door of your accommodation in the Zillertal.
Even more: take the free electric ski bus (100% green) 20 metres from your accommodation to the nearby Hintertux Glacier (every 10 minutes from Christmas to Easter, every 20 minutes in the early and late season). The options for your ski holiday in the Zillertal couldn't be any closer.
Hintertux Glacier
Terrain on which you get to wedel ‘one level higher’. 365 days a year you can look forward to 100 percent snow-assuredness. At any rate, the 60 kilometres of very well-tended powder snow pistes heading up to 3250 metres altitude are a paradise for ski enthusiasts.
As Austria’s only year-round ski area, the Hintertux Glacier has been named the best glacier ski area in the world. And not without reason. After all, superbly tended ski routes, an extensive gastronomic selection and last but not least, a fascinating experience in the natural surroundings awaits winter sports fans.
Anyone who prefers to experience the glacier without a set of skis on their feet can enjoy optimum conditions for hiking in the snow in the Tux ski area. Enjoy the sight of the “Natural ice palace”, the inspiring crevasses and the magical views to the impressive mountain from your accommodation in the valley.
