WE LIKE

  • One of the best glaciers in the world and lots of great reds to keep you busy
  • Linked to other large ski areas of Zillertal and has a 12k run from the Gefrorene Wand to the bottom
  • Excellent off-piste opportunities and great snow quality and conditions

WE DON'T LIKE

  • Few shops and very quiet après-ski - not a party town
  • Not ideal for beginners as few easy runs
  • Glacier can be cold and bleak in mid winter - plus no tree-lined skiing!
