Ski area Ski- und Gletscherwelt Zillertal 3000

With the "Zillertaler Superskipass" you can choose from 542 kilometres of piste in the Zillertal Arena, by the Mayrhofen lifts, in the Ski and Gletscherwelt Zillertal 3000, in the ski area Hochzillertal – Hochfügen – Spieljoch, as well as the Wildkogel-Arena at Bramberg. The ski areas are all excellently linked to one another by a free train and bus shuttle (see ski region). Since a few years, the Zillertal Arena offers free-of-charge Wi-Fi in all of its ski areas! In other words, not only can you enjoy the white bliss and the sun, but also share your latest experiences and highlights directly with your loved ones at home.

The "Ski- und Gletscherwelt Zillertal 3000" ski and glacier world combines the ski areas around Ahorn, Penken, Rastkogel, Eggalm and the Hintertuxer Gletscher. The entire area offers 202 km of piste and has 65 lifts between 630 - 3,250 m.

With the "Hintertuxer Gletscher" lift pass, you can ski along 60 km of piste. The Hintertux Glacier is even especially snow-sure in summer and offers varied runs. Whether you take on the long run from the Gefrorene Wand (frozen wall), test the buckle pistes at Olperer or prefer to enjoy the deep snow area at Kaserer, there is no lack of options! A further highlight is the "Gletscherrunde", where you can conquer 15,000 meters in altitude and 60 km of runs. Please note that for bookings for the low season (October - November) only the "Hintertuxer Gletscher" lift pass is included.

The pistes at Eggalm offer a beautiful view of the Tux Valley and the Penken and Horberg ski area is also reachable over the Rastkogel, whose lifts have recently started providing weather covers and seat warmers. In addition to the legendary Harakiri piste, you will also find the first-rate "Penken Funpark".

Without direct connection to Tux, only reachable over Mayrhofen, a small but fine beginner's area with Austria's largest pendulum cableway awaits you at the Ahorn.

The ski area Tux/Hintertux Glacier was voted the best ski area 2014 in the category "Guaranteed Snow". The glacier ski area offers winter sports fun on 365 days a year.

The 10 person lift Finkenberg I, has been in service since the 2017/18 winter season. It has replaced the 4 person cabin lift at the valley station in Finkenberg, and it has been transporting 2,400 people per hour in its 56 cabins from the valley to the mountain. Factors such as shorter transportation times, heated seats and Wi-Fi help give passengers a comfortable experience.

Snowpark: Snowpark Betterpark & Van Penken Park Tux

On the Hintertux glacier there are two fun parks that open one after the other, so that park fans can find a playground in the snow all year round. The Betterpark (snow park) on the Olperer (3,476 m) is open from April to July and from September to December. The fine fun park at 3,200 m can be reached via the Olperer T-bar lift and is one of the highest and most snow-sure parks in the Alpine region. Freestylers can expect great jumps and a constantly changing jib setup here. In addition, the Betterpark is the first snowpark in Europe to open at the beginning of October with a big opening event. This location simply makes every freestyle heart beat faster.

The Familypark (Funslope) on the Sommerberg promises fun for young and old. The park is open from December to April and thus replaces the Betterpark over the winter months. Here, at an altitude of 2,100 m, you ride through sweeping steep curves, over obstacles and wave tracks as well as through two giant snails. For the adventurous descent, there are different variants to try out. The 4-seater Tuxerjoch chairlift quickly brings you back to the funslope start! For the youngest there is also the Kid's Slope and the Flea Park on the "Schwarze Pfanne" valley run.

In Mayrhofen, fun sport and creativity lovers will discover a very special highlight: the "Vans Penken Park", which was voted best snowpark in Europe in 2010! The park is divided into four different areas. Here you can use the Fun Area, the Medium Area, the Advanced Area or the Pr Area for practising on your skills. This is even a great place to practise for the youngest freestyle beginners. In the KIDS park there are kickers and butter boxes just waiting to be discovered. For all bigger freestylers, there are boxes, kickers, rails, tubes, jibs, butter boxes and 2 specials - an end section and a multi-jib "Beastbox" in the Pro Area.

The entrance to the park is located at an altitude of 1,800 m between the Rastkogel and Horberg at 2,000 m. Furthermore, the park comprises its own 4-person chair lift, the "Sunjet", which operates directly above the Pro Line, so that you can observe the pros from above. Special events and contest offering a great time for freestylers, skiers, and winter sports fans, take place in regular intervals.
