The Hintertux Glacier is the only remaining resort offering skiing 365 days a year in Europe, and it's easy to get here from Mayrhofen and the rest of the Zillertal Valley.
Sitting at the end of the Tux Valley, an offshoot from the Zillertal, the Hintertux Glacier offers up some of the world’s most snowsure skiing. The slopes extend from 1500m in the valley to an elevation of 3250m on the iconic Gefrorene Wand and cover 60km – most of which are either on the glacier itself or are covered by a comprehensive snowmaking system. Much of the terrain suits intermediates, but there are some steeper challenges and once the snow cover has built up during the winter, there are some good off piste options too and the Better Park is one of the best around
Although most visitors come for the day up from the Zillertal Valley at resorts such as Mayrhofen, Zell am Ziller and Finkenberg, there is accommodation at the foot of the lifts or a kilometre down the valley in the small village of Hintertux. Both are quiet options, but its possible to ski back down to both at the end of the day (in the winter months at least).
As mentioned, there’s skiing up here all year round, making this one of the most popular summer ski areas in the Alps. Numerous race teams, the world’s best freestyle athletes and skiers keen to polish their technique ahead of the upcoming season flock here during the summer months. Unlike many other glacier resorts, the slopes at Hintertux have struggled less in recent years and decent skiing can usually be found in August and September when other places are closed.

Updated 03/02
A tale of two halves over Austria this week, with western and eastern regions seeing different forecasts. Western areas will see steady flurries of snowfall through the middle of this week before fine, dry and bright conditions dominate on Thursday. The freezing will steadily decline over this period, starting at 2,000m and, with a few bumps along the way, float down to 500m on the weekend.
More snowfall will then come in over higher ground as the weekend begins, with 10cm expected down over Friday night and into Saturday. Things settle down, albeit remain cold and cloudy with more snowfall threatened in the new week.
Eastern areas will be far snowier through the middle of this week, with the potential for 20cm of snow down over Wednesday and Thursday. The freezing line will be higher, however, sitting around 2,000m for this period meaning snow will be limited to upper slopes. Things then cool off as the freezing line drops to 500m but things turn drier into the weekend and new week.
