Your Hotel for a Vacation on the Hintertux Glacier
365 Days of Snow Fun
Austria’s only year-round ski resort offers 365 days of fun in the snow at altitudes of up to 3,250 meters. With 62 kilometers of perfectly groomed slopes, high-alpine panoramic views, and glacial ice that’s thousands of years old, winter here feels completely natural no matter the season.
The world’s highest double-circumferential cable car, the Gletscherbus 3, takes you up into the high-alpine mountain world. Even the ascent – passing rugged rock faces, snowfields, and sweeping views – makes the journey to the glacier an experience in itself. As a hotel near the Hintertux Glacier, the Tuxerhof is ideal for a vacation with guaranteed snow – and, above all, for relaxation afterward.
Early-Season Skiing on the Hintertux Glacier
Ahead of Winter
While elsewhere the wait for the ski season seems to last forever, the Hintertux Glacier brings the first fresh snow in the fall. The high-alpine mountain landscape transforms once again into wide slopes, and the freestyle season kicks off with the opening of the Betterpark.
In winter, the Hintertux Glacier connects with Eggalm, Rastkogel, Finkenberg, Penken/Mayrhofen, and Ahorn to form the Zillertal 3000 Ski and Glacier World—one of Tyrol’s most diverse ski areas, with 202 kilometers of slopes and countless opportunities for families, leisure skiers, and ambitious winter sports enthusiasts.
At the Tuxerhof, you’ll not only find the perfect starting point right next to the Rastkogelbahn, but also personalized tips for the most beautiful runs, mountain huts, and winter experiences around Tux.
It's rare to get such a great winter experience with just a single ski pass: 202 kilometers of slopes with guaranteed snow included.

Is the Hintertux Glacier not enough? In addition to the Zillertal 3000 Ski & Glacier World, ambitious skiers can also use the Zillertal Superski Pass to explore the slopes of the Zillertal Arena, the Hochzillertal-Hochfügen-Spieljoch ski area, and the Mayrhofner Bergbahnen. 548 kilometers of slopes await. When will you start
The glacier is open for you in the spring and summer, too
Oh, there was something else!
From powder to firn, you’ll experience the best snow conditions throughout the Zillertal spring, with plenty of sunshine. Summer in the Tux Valley then combines, so to speak, four seasons at once.
Ski enthusiasts can cruise leisurely down the glacier’s slopes even during the summer months, while others opt for a hike up to the alpine pastures or a mountain bike tour. For families, the summer mountain becomes a little adventure paradise in the heart of the Tyrolean Alps, featuring a glacier flea safari, marble runs, and exciting activities centered around the mascot Luis.
