Where to stay in Mayrhofen
Mayrhofen centre
- skiing
- first-time visitors
- walking
The village centre sits between two mountains: the Penken, which Wikipedia notes has Austria's steepest piste, named Harakiri, and the Ahorn, which has mainly easy and intermediate runs. The Penkenbahn and Ahornbahn cable cars both start close to the village. It is the best base for being near the lifts and the railway.

Hippach is one of the villages in the Mayrhofen-Hippach holiday region, down the valley from Mayrhofen. The Zillertalbahn runs along the valley, and Wikipedia says its intermediate stations provide access to many of the valley's ski areas. It suits visitors who prefer a smaller village.
Finkenberg
- skiers
- Hintertux access
- village stays
Finkenberg is a neighbouring village that Wikipedia says is connected to the Penken by lifts. The Hintertux glacier, which Wikipedia says reaches 3,250 metres and allows skiing all year round, is also reached from the valley.
Getting around Mayrhofen
The Zillertalbahn, a narrow-gauge railway, runs between Jenbach and Mayrhofen and is the valley's main public transport operator according to Wikipedia. Wikivoyage describes travelling from Munich by direct train to Jenbach and changing onto the Zillertalbahn, which runs about every 30 minutes. Innsbruck is the nearest major city.
Wikivoyage says ski buses take you everywhere, mostly for free, including to the lifts of nearby villages and the Hintertux glacier. You can therefore stay without a car in winter. Lift operating dates change by season, so check them for your visit.
Living in Mayrhofen for longer
Mayrhofen is a seasonal resort, and a longer stay works best in winter or in the summer hiking months. A kitchen helps if you are cooking for a group, and the official tourism site also promotes autumn for hiking, biking, climbing and trail running.
Wikivoyage says lodging is often sold in weekly packs, Saturday afternoon to the following Saturday morning, so apartments may have fixed changeover days in peak weeks. Ask about this when you book.
When to visit Mayrhofen
Winter dominates the calendar: the official tourism site describes 142 kilometres of slopes and 61 lifts across Mountopolis, run by Mayrhofner Bergbahnen. Hintertux offers skiing all year, according to Wikipedia.
Summer and autumn bring hiking, biking, climbing and trail running, according to the official site. Because lifts and cable cars run to seasonal schedules, check opening dates before you travel.
The Mayrhofen-Hippach holiday region is made up of several villages, so the choice of base matters. The Austria hub lists other Alpine resorts, including Innsbruck, the usual gateway.
