Tours to Mayrhofen
This ski resort tops the list of the oldest and best on the Austrian list, and therefore tours to Mayrhofen are always popular with fans of active pastime during the winter holidays..
History with geography
The alpine village, on the site of which the Mayrhofen ski resort appeared, was once nestled between the slopes of Ahorn and Penken. It is here that guests will find breathtakingly beautiful mountain landscapes and slopes overgrown with fir trees, along which it is so pleasant to sweep with the breeze or walk on a footpath in search of harmony with oneself lost in the bustling city.
There are three main ski regions for the participants of the Mayrhofen tours: the Hintertux glacier - for the most experienced and advanced, Ahorn - for the "green" penguins and Penken - for those who see skis not for the first time and quite confidently hold on to them on the mountain slope. By the way, the eternal ice of Hintertux allows skiing in the middle of July, and it was here in 1968 that the first summer ski resort in Tyrol was opened..
