Hintertux Glacier
Crazy for snow!
Autumn offers at the Hintertux Glacier, Eggalm Bahnen and Finkenberger Almbahnen include adventure playgrounds for children as well as hikes and bike tours.
Hintertux Glacier stands for snow fun all year round and has the longest skiing season in Austria. Now in autumn the whole mountain starts to dress up in white and entices people to take their skies out of the cellar and prepare to carve into winter.
From December, the Hintertux Glacier unites with the Eggalm Bahnen, Rastkogel Bahnen, Finkenberger Almbahnen, Penken/Mayrhofen and Ahorn to form the snow-sure Ski- & Glacier World Zillertal 3000.
Away from the slopes, the Panorama Terrace and two unique natural gems, the Nature’s Ice Palace and the Spannagel Cave are among the best Highlights in the Zillertal all year round.

Skiing at
Hintertux Glacier
As Hintertux Glacier is the most snowsure ski resort in Austria, Skiing and snowboarding on Hintertux Glacier just starts earlier than in other places. Especially now in autumn, when the season elsewhere hasn’t even started, skiing fun at Hintertux Glacier increases with every day. Breathtaking views are always included.
One of the best
snow parks in the alps
The Betterpark Hintertux is the highest and snowiest freestyle spot of Austria and rated as one of the best snow parks of the alps. As a freestyle-enthusiast, you can expect perfect jumps and an ever-changing jib setup from the beginning of Oktober. Come by and celebrate the start of the park season with us at the Hintertux Park Opening.
The perfect view
from the Panorama Terrace
Breathtaking views can be enjoyed all over the mountain, but the Panorama Terrace, which can be reached by our cable car Gletscherbus 3, is a very special place. At
3,250 m you are at the highest point of the Zillertal that can be reached via cable car. You are above most surrounding mountain peaks and have a view that last from the Dolomites to the Zugspitze.
Discover the Inside
of Glacier and Mountain
At Hintertux Glacier, you have the unique opportunity to see how the glacier and the mountain look from the inside. At the Nature's Ice Palace, you see huge ice formations build by natural forces over centuries. You can even go on a boat ride 30 m below the ski slope. The biggest cave and only marble cave in the central alps, the Spannagel Cave, is located near the Tuxer
Fernerhaus (2,660 m) and is just one cable car ride away. Here you can see how natural forces of water and geological processes formed the cave system which you can visit today. Don't miss it.
