Although the 139km of local slopes might sound slightly limited, there is excellent variety and fast lifts at every corner – there’s been 26 new lifts here since 2000.

On the Slopes
The town itself has something for everyone, including families and those looking to party. Try and stay as close to the Penkenbahn as possible for the easiest access to the slopes, but don’t worry if you’re further out as the bus system in the valley is very good.
The 139km of local slopes are best suited to intermediates, but there are some good challenges above Finkenberg and in the Harakari, Mayrhofen claims to have the steepest groomed slope in Austria. There are some good beginner areas, both at the top of the Penkenbahn and on the Penken summit itself. Add in the rest of the Zillertal resorts – including Fügen, Kaltenbach, Zell am Ziller and the Hintertux Glacier – and the ski area becomes even more impressive.
For Beginners
You do have to ride up the mountain to access the beginner areas, but this does mean that they are snowsure as the resort itself is at a lowly altitude of 630m. Once up the mountain however and there are some fantastic beginner areas – including Pepis Kinderland on the Penken summit, the Übungsland Penken at the top of the Penkenbahn. The gentle blues on the Ahorn are also recommended for beginners and this sector is usually quieter.
For Intermediates
Most of the Penken is suitable for intermediates and there is some great cruising across the mountain. The slopes of Eggalm are also well worth exploring and here it’s possible to notch up 1000 vertical metres via piste 77.
For Advanced/Expert & Off Piste
Of course there is the 78% Harakari piste, which rightly has a reputation as a very steep and challenging run. Elsewhere the blacks are much less intimidating, but there is some great off piste in the area following fresh snowfall. Advanced skiers will want to clock up the miles by visiting as many of the other resorts in the Zillertal as possible – but note that none of the resorts offer serious challenges for experts.
In the Resort
Even as the village has grown, the buildings have stayed traditional in design and for its size it is quite attractive. The steep valley makes for impressive scenery but it does mean that in mid-winter the town is often in the shade.
Crucially the valley road bypasses the village so the centre is very quiet, albeit not completely pedestrianised.
For Families
There are some great family-friendly hotels in Mayrhofen and childcare in the resort is reportedly very good. Although the learning areas are up the hill, they are excellent, and it means you can head off skiing straight after dropping the kids off at ski school. The Erlebnisbad swimming complex is very popular on bad weather days.
For Après
Mayrhofen has a great reputation for après. It all kicks off at the top of the Penkenbahn in the Pilzbar and unlike in most resorts, the download down the gondola makes for a safe return afterwards. Revellers then pour off the gondola into Ice Bar and Bruck’n Stadl where the table dancing kicks off. We’d also recommend Mike’s Sportsbar – it is very popular with Brits and has live sport on big screens. Snowbombing, one of the biggest events in the Alps, is hosted here every spring, attracting the likes of Liam Gallagher and The Prodigy.

Austria
Updated 28/03
A steady nordstau event over Austria hits this weekend, with cooling temperatures and loads of snow hitting the region. Loads of it. Snowfall brings over two feet of snow to the Inn and Ems Valleys, with plenty of it making it over the Main Alpine Ridge to the southerly edges of the Austria Alps. Snow will begin Friday night, before around a foot falls on Saturday, followed by half a foot on Sunday and nearly another foot on Monday.
The freezing line will drop off gradually over the course of this period, starting at 2,000m but reaching 1,000m by dawn on Monday. This will ensure that much of this especially later snowfall reaches lower elevation slopes, too.
Fine, dry and steady conditions then move in for the remainder of the week and into next weekend.
