Tux Alps

The Tux Alps, named after the village of Tux in a side valley of the Zillertal valley, are exclusively located in Tyrol and stretch from Innsbruck (Patscherkofel mountain) via the Zillertal valley to the area of Schwaz (Kellerjoch mountain). In the Tux Alps, there are several skiing areas such as Hochfügen-Hochzillertal, Glungezer, Kellerjoch and Patscherkofel.

In the north the Tux Alps border on the Karwendel mountain chain, in the north east on the Rofan mountains, in the east on the Kitzbühel Alps and in the west on the Stubai Alps. In the south the Tux Alps border on the Zillertal Alps, the Tuxer Joch saddle connects these two mountain ranges.
