    Superb area - something for everyone

    Set in the beautiful Ziller valley, Mayrhofen offers fantastic skiing and excellent après ski and is a huge favourite with families too. The wonderful skiing in Mayrhofen takes place on two separate, sunny plateaux - the Penken and the Ahorn. The Ahorn cable car is located just 200m from the Penken gondola in the village centre. Connected by a free bus service to the huge Zillertal ski area including Hintertux Glacier, Mayrhofen is a great holiday base for all levels of skier.

    Ski information

    Beginners

    Mayrhofen is a particularly good choice if this is your first time on skis. Patient instructors and gentle nursery slopes will ensure you get the most out of your first ski trip and there are a variety of gentle beginner slopes at over 1800m at the top of the Penken mountain.

    Intermediates

    The Penken, Mayrhofen's intermediate mountain offers red runs galore. The lift pass also covers the blue motorways of Kaltenbach and the scenic tree lined reds of Zell am Ziller, not to mention the Hintertux Glacier. All areas are linked by ski buses or the valley train.

    Advanced

    There are tricky routes down the Penken Mountains to Schwendau and through the trees from the Ahorn. The Horberg ski area also offers a number of exciting long runs like the challenging Schafskopf mogul run. Don't miss a run down 'Harakiri' - the steepest pisted black run in Austria.
