Ski Area Zillertal Arena
With the "Zillertaler Superskipass" you have a choice of 668 km of piste and 172 lifts in the 8 ski areas in the Ziller, Gerlos and Tuxer Vallies, all of which are ideally connected with a free shuttle bus. Gerlos gives you direct entrance to the Ziller Valley Arena, which is joined to Zell am Ziller and with this 166 km of excellently prepared pistes. Here in the extensive Ziller Valley ski area 49 lifts take you quickly and comfortably up to 2500 m altitude. From there you have the choice of many different descents. One of the most challenging runs is "Descent Nr. 6" in the Krummbach Valley which covers an altitude difference of 613 m. The longest descent, the 10.4 km long valley run goes from "Stoanmandl" on to "Ebenfeld" and to the "Isskogl" valley station. Powder snow and freeride fans have lots to explore, including the Arbiskogl area. Freestylers will be in their element at the "Hot Zone Snowpark" in Gerlos. The Mega-Halfpipe (100 m long and 14 m wide) guarantees fun for boarders! Children's slopes and a ski-kindergarten with special children's programme will keep the little one's entertained. A highlight whilst in the Ziller Valley is a trip to the Hintertux Glacier. Due to its size and demanding pistes, it truly is one of the best glaciers in the Alps!
