Area Profile
One of Austria's top resorts and the third largest community in the Tyrol, but it has managed to retain the ambience and architectural integrity of a traditional Tyrolean village. The skiing takes place on two separate mountains, the larger of which is reached by the impressive Penken cable car. The local ski area is extensive, but the Super Zillertal pass increases the maximum to more than 500km.
Known to snowboarders as 'Big M', Mayrhofen is very snowboard-friendly, even bravely claiming to speak the language of 'snowboardish'.
