Zillertal
Surrounded by the Zillertal and Tux Alps, there are some well-known holiday resorts such as Gerlos, Mayrhofen and Tux.
The holiday area Zillertal, located about 40 km from Innsbruck, extends from Strass in the Zillertal valley to Mayrhofen, where it branches out into the Tuxertal valley, Zamser Grund, Stillupgrund and Zillergrund. This valley has not only become popular thanks to the wonderful world of mountains with the Tux Alps, the Zillertal Alps and its nature park, but also due to a local folk music group called “Schuerzenjaeger”, which is known far beyond borders.
The range of offers for your summer holidays in this area is manifold, ranging from the highest-located thermal baths of Europe at Tux to a ride on the Gerlos alpine road offering a splendid view, and lama trekking. In winter months, however, the ski resort “Ski Zillertal 3000″ offers more than 160 km of well-groomed ski slopes, as well as opportunities to do cross-coutnry skiing, snowshoeing and ice skating. Have fun!
