Zillertal. Holiday with Heart.
Welcome to Zillertal! Where sun, snow and well-being become the meaning of life and where great freedom tempts you to let go.
Located in the federal province Tyrol, the Zillertal branches off from the Inn Valley about 40km east of Innsbruck. It is the broadest southern side valley of the Inn Valley and extends in a length of 32km from Strass in the Zillertal to Mayrhofen, where it branches out into four side valleys: Zillergrund, Zemmgrund, Stilluptal and Tuxertal. The Gerlos Valley branches off from Zillertal towards the east at the village Zell am Ziller. In contrast to other Tyrolean side valleys, the Zillertal does not overcome any so-called “valley step” and only rises slightly from Strass (523m) to Mayrhofen (633m).
