Start skiing earlier. Enjoy it for longer.

Why your start to the season in Tux-Finkenberg is special:

• An early start to winter – whilst autumn still reigns in the valley, the skiing fun is already underway on the Hintertux Glacier. Perfect for anyone who can’t wait for the new ski season to begin.
• High up at 3,250 m – wide slopes, breathtaking views and that special feeling of freedom above the clouds: on the Hintertux Glacier, even the very first run is an experience.
• Ski for longer – From autumn well into spring, the high altitude extends the skiing season. So you can enjoy winter when it’s still a long way off elsewhere – or has already come to an end.
• Action at the Betterpark Hintertux – Freestylers also get the season off to an early start. At around 3,200 metres, kickers, rails and varied lines await your first tricks of the winter.
• Winter fun for young and old – Family ski days, ski schools and a variety of experiences make the start of the glacier season a special break for families too.
• Adventures in the eternal ice – Discover the glacier off the slopes too: at the Natur Eis Palast, in the Spannagel Cave or on the panoramic terrace, a fascinating world of ice, rock and high-alpine nature awaits.

Autumn in the valley. Winter on the mountain.

It is precisely this contrast that makes skiing on the Tux-Finkenberg glacier so special. Down below, you can enjoy golden autumn days; up above, you’re already carving turns through the snow.

It is particularly in autumn that the Hintertux Glacier makes the most of its high altitude, allowing you to enjoy days on the slopes whilst elsewhere the winter season is still a long way off.
