Experience Alpine fun and skiing fun on the same day
The days are getting shorter and winter is setting in at 3,250 metres (10,662.73 feet). The nights get colder and the conditions on the mountain improve from day to day. Come along in autumn and experience the snowiest ski area in Austria. Nowhere else is skiing as varied and enjoyable as in the Tyrolean Zillertal: the Hintertux Glacier offers fun on the snow and slopes, great food and fascinating nature experiences at up to 3,250 metres (10,662.73 feet) above sea level!
The ski season simply starts earlier on the Hintertux Glacier at 3,250 metres (10,662.73 feet) above sea level. Especially in early autumn, the Hintertux Glacier already offers skiing fun and breathtaking views over snow-covered peaks and green valleys thanks to its altitude.
