Hintertux Glacier

Hintertux stands apart as Austria's only year-round ski resort, with skiing possible 365 days a year on its pristine glacier slopes. Rising to an impressive 3,250 meters, the resort encompasses 60 kilometers of expertly maintained runs. The combination of high-altitude glacier skiing and lower mountain terrain creates a diverse ski area that attracts both serious athletes seeking summer training and winter sports enthusiasts looking for guaranteed snow conditions.

The glacier's sophisticated lift system features modern gondolas and chairlifts that efficiently transport skiers from the valley at 1,500m to the summit at 3,250m. A network of 21 lifts includes the advanced Glacier Bus 3, which carries skiers to the highest point in just 12 minutes. The system handles 17,500 skiers per hour, with three primary gondolas providing comfortable access to different skiing zones while offering spectacular panoramic views of the surrounding peaks.
