Discover the valleys of the Zillertal

The Mayrhofen/Hippach Holiday Region lies in the basin of the upper Ziller Valley, before the fascinating backdrop of the Zillertal Alps Nature Park. The landscape here fans out into four subsidiary valleys, also known as "Gründe". Mayrhofen nestles below high mountain ranges at the end of the Ziller Valley, but do not be deceived - as far as hiking is concerned - this is only the beginning. Pack your rucksack, tie your shoe laces tightly and set off to the mountains of the upper Zillertal Valley. Rare plants and animals, crystal clear mountain streams and a surreal tranquility are here and waiting to be discovered by you! Those not wanting to miss out on creature comforts can of course enjoy the special Tyrolean charm and great traditional cuisine whilst taking a leisurely break with friends. Mountain lodges and huts offering welcome refreshments can be found in abundance. OPENING TIMES OF THE ALPINE ROADS 2025:
