Hintertux Glacier Ski Area offers the most diverse early-season
glacier skiing experience in all of Europe. Set in a spectacular area
of Tyrol, the Alps of the Hohe Tauern rising to the east and the Italian
border just to the south, skiing at Hintertux truly is a unique experience.
Facilities at this modern resort are second to none, offering same day ski
or snowboard tuning, professionaly groomed runs, first-rate food choices,
modern lifts and gondolas, and a plethora of off slope activities to keep
the whole family entertained.
At this time of the year (early Nov), only the upper slopes on the
mountain will be open. These runs, however, account for all skill
levels and even include one of the biggest and best ski and snowboard
terrain parks in Austria. If you haven't been to Hintertux, this is a
'must do' trip! Speaking from personal experience, I must say that
this is one of my prefered resorts in Austria and I've never had a bad time
skiing the glacier at Hintetux!
