Autumn skiing on the Hintertux glacier
Free transfer to the cable car
In early autumn, fresh new snow, fantastically wide slopes, and Europe’s first snowpark opening await you on the Hintertux Glacier. While the golden autumn in the valley around Mayrhofen invites you to go hiking, you can already enjoy snow-sure runs up on the glacier. With the free autumn ski bus from Mayrhofen, you can comfortably reach the cable car directly.
