Mountains, Freedom and outdoor adventures on a summer vacation in the Zillertal

This is your summer vacation in Tux

Between the Ahornspitze and the Hintertux Glacier lies a valley that offers little time to pause in summer: hiking trails, summits, alpine meadows, mountain herbs, and a mountain that holds snow year-round. And right in the middle is the Tuxerhof, which makes a good day even better.

The Tux Valley in summer

Being outside

Hiking along lush green alpine trails, biking through the Zillertal, paragliding over Finkenberg, playing golf with mountain views, rafting on the Ziller, or simply standing up there and marveling at the scenery. In the summer, the Tux Valley offers more than a single vacation can hold. It’s a good thing you can come back.

Rafting

Rapids, paddles, spray. The rafting tours starting from Mayrhofen are truly memorable. For beginners and adventure seekers alike.

Canyoning

Through the Zemmschlucht gorge to the pools, ending with a final leap into the ice-cold mountain water. Not for the faint of heart.

Hochseilgarten

Climb, balance, and don't look down at the Zillertal-Kaltenbach Adventure Park.

Paragliden

Take off and experience the Tux Valley from a whole new perspective with tandem paragliding.
