Things to do in Mayrhofen

At 3,250 metres this is the highest point you can get to on the lifts and, as you can imagine, the views are amazing from up here. The Nature's Ice Palace is a fascinating day out, exploring the depths of the Hintertux Glacier from within the ice where you'll find sparkling ice crystals, stalactites and even a glacial lake.

Ahorn Genussplatz Mayrhofen Copyright Frank Bauer Www.Frankbauer.Com Www.Mayhofen.At

Stride the stepping stones, dip your feet into the Ahornsee lake and wander the family-friendly leisure trail on the Ahorn mountain. Most of the paths on this mountain are pushchair-friendly, and there’s plenty of spots to relax and enjoy the view while the children splash, climb and play. Young adventurers can also tick off their first summit at the Filzenkogel, which is around one hour from the top of the Ahorn lift.

Penken Bike Park Copyright Frank Bauer Www.Frankbauer.Com Www.Mayhofen.At

As well as all the family-friendly walking trails you’ll find on the Penken mountain (many of which are pushchair-friendly) you can take bikes on the lift, and there’s plenty of trails to explore. You can also try mountain scooting or discover one of the mountain play areas – one of them at Penkenjoch has an eight-metre-tall wooden bear.

Mayrhofen Zillertal Cycle Trail Copyright Zillertal Tourismus Heiko Mandl

With 1,300 kilometres of routes, the Zillertal is heaven for biking, whether on gravel, bumpy single-track trails or quiet mountain roads. Hire an e-bike and ride up into the Stilluptal to enjoy this picture-perfect private valley, or head to the more challenging single-track trails for some adrenaline-packed downhill action. The Penken Mountain’s FunSportStation is made for young thrill-seekers. There’s a bike park with mini electric motorcycles to play around on. If the children are into scooters, here’s where you can step it up a level by trying out the ‘mountain scooter’ that handles trickier terrain more like a mountain bike. The whole family can head out onto the trails on mountain scooters (once everyone’s got to grips with it).

Mayrhofen Via Ferrata Adobestock 329602381

The most popular via ferrata are the routes to the Zimmereben Hut. There are different routes to suit all ability levels and some are a real challenge. You'll be rewarded with incredible views on your climb and you can tuck into a strudel and a coffee or beer at the hut when you reach the top. If the Zimmereben routes whet your appetite and you're keen for more, the route on the Gerlosteinwand is longer and lots of fun, with equally spectacular views - remember to take your own treats for the top though.

Mayrhofen Playground Penken Finkenberg Adobestock 384417002

There’s playparks and adventure spots at all over the place in Mayrhofen and the Zillertal, which is great news for families with active young explorers. In the forest around Waldfestplatz there’s various wooden play areas and you can try crazy golf. Then head up the Ahorn or Penken mountains for more family adventures.

At the bottom of the Rosenalm lift in Zell am Ziller, there’s a big playground and summer toboggan, and at the top a huge wooden castle and adventure park. You could also try the high ropes course near Mayrhofen to test your head for heights and balance.
