It takes a good hour to get to Zillertal from Munich. Zillertal has 5 large ski regions. Kaltenbach/Hochzillertal - Hochfügen, Fügen-Spieljoch, Zillertal-Arena Zell-Gerlos, Zillertal 3000: from Maryhofen - Schwendau to Hintertux (Glacial ski area of the year 2006) with a total of 600 kilometres of trails and more than 174 lifts. The ski region of Hochzillertal can be reached in about 5 minutes from here with the free ski-bus. Since 2004, a merger with the ski region of Hochfügen has occurred. Thus, you now have more of a selection of trails then ever before.
Other Activities: Adventure spa with mutliple swimming pools inside/outisde, water slides, wellness area and huge ice skating rink
Ski: Hochfügen - Hochzillertal/Kaltenbach ski region (600-2501 m): An interesting alternative has developed in Zillertal due to the merger of Hochfügen with Kaltenbach. 40 lifts open up 155 trails, from these trails, 26 km are difficult, 82 km are middle and 36 km are easy. The ski region is convincing of family and children friendliness, descents of up to 10 km (departure from the valley to Kaltenbach - covered with snow and illuminated until Easter) and superb descent variations. Permanent race course. 2 x weekly - night skiing. All day care for children directly at the mountain station. New starting winter 06/07: a second gondola from Kaltenbach (no waiting!), a larger ski and depot service station, 8 person chair lift with weather protection cover & heated seats to the 'Kristallhütte'. Snowboard: wide trails and attractive deep snow descents. Funpark in Hochfügen. Snowpark directly at the 6 person 'sonnenjet' (Hochzillertal). Snowboard center with half-pipe at Marendalm.
