An atmospheric town with lively nightlife and great terrain
Mayrhofen is a pretty town in the Ziller valley that's been popular with Brits since the 1970s for its lively atmosphere and large amount of terrain, including the Hintertux glacier. Today, the area has 620km of pistes and making it the biggest resort in the valley. Thanks partly to 'Snowbombing' every April – a week-long party-cum-ski holiday with live music – Mayrhofen attracts a young, boisterous crowd.
- If you’re young and looking to party, Mayrhofen is the place for you.
- Accommodation and dining is affordable and good quality.
- Off-piste terrain is excellent and barely touched.

- Après-ski action can be a bit too lively at times.
- Occasional peak season queues to download at the end of the day.
- Although the Ziller pass gives access to a lot of terrain, you do have to travel to reach it.
