Action Tips

Action!

Of course you will always have a great time skiing across perfectly groomed pistes in the sunshine. But in Zillertal you can find even more. Whether it‘s on the longest downhills or over the steepest slopes, in gullies or in the mountain air, in a freestyle paradise or in the snow park – get your adrenaline pumping, get a rush! If you‘re looking for action, you‘ll find action. And in the end you‘ll hear your body shouting: Just don‘t stop! www.zillertal.at/action/en

Harakiri Steep Slopes

Mayrhofen-Hippach. Even the toughest person will let out a "Wow!". Black, blacker, harakiri. The 400-metre stretch on Actionberg Penken has long been a legend. The steepest section of the two kilometre descent through Horbergtal has a 78 per cent incline. We recommend starting with the not so extreme Devil‘s Run first. As a warm-up.

Canyon of Joy The Powder Paradise

Fügen-Kaltenbach. Where the bold make their mark. To the left a mountain wall, to the right a mountain wall - and in between a 500 metre long gully with deep snow. In the naturally formed canyon at 2,000 metres at the Hochfügen ski hill, 100 vertical metres can be covered in full speed or slope style.

Black Attack An Action Film for Home

Mayrhofen-Hippach. Attaaack!!! On the vicious number 16 black piste at the Möslbahn in the Penken skiing area, the Skimovie Course attracts all those who dare to test their skills. How good, safe and fast are you really on your skis? As a cool souvenir to take home, you can film your own turns and even get your time recorded.

Betterpark On the Line

Fügen-Kaltenbach. Welcome to the snowpark! Betterpark, with a total length of 320 metres, is located below the exit of the 8-person chairlift Schnee-Express in Hochzillertal and has something for all levels. You can choose between Beginner Line, Medium Line, Pro Line, Jib Line and XL Kicker Line.

Gletscherrunde 15.000 Vertical Metres

Tux-Finkenberg. A special experience. If you didn‘t get through this highlight, you weren‘t even there. The ultimate skiing adventure with over 60 kilometres of downhill pistes offering all levels of difficulty. Anyone who masters the glacier round in the Ski & Glacier World Zillertal 3000 will have more than 15,000 metres of vertical in their legs at the end of the day.

Snowpark Ready for Fun-Run

Zell-Gerlos. A definite hotspot in the Zillertal Arena. The park area at the Vorkogellift in Gerlos covers an area of 30,000 m². A fun run with steep turns and integrated obstacles is sure to make all freestylers‘ hearts beat faster. To provide the right atmosphere, a sound system is located in the relaxing chill area near the park container.

Schwarze Pfanne From the Saddle to the Valley

Tux-Finkenberg. Where wonder has a name. Because of its unique scenery, the descent down the Hintertux glacier is one of the most impressive sights for many skiers. With the mighty Olperer at your back, the route runs from the Tuxer Joch right up to the Hintertux village centre. From the highest point all the way to the turnaround, ski adventurers cover 1,750 vertical metres.

Höhenfresser-Tour Ten Kilometres Nonstop

Zell-Gerlos. Enjoy one of the longest descents in Austria. From the highest point of the Zillertal Arena – the Übergangsjoch at 2,500 meters – you can cover a total of 1,930 vertical metres and ten kilometres of pistes before reaching the end in the valley. The descent down into the valley in Zell am Ziller truly lives up to its name as the "HöhenfresserTour" – literally the "Height Devouring Tour".

Tricks and Crowns

Snowboard action for all ages: With four stops, the Zillertal Välley Rälleyis going on tour for the 8th time. Applause, medals and great prizes are waiting – plus a coronation.

This event will make the hearts of freestylers beat faster for the eighth time. The name VÄLLEY RÄLLEY has long been considered a call for young action heroes. Over four weekends, Zillertal will be hosting a great snowboard amateur series at four ski hills. The first day is extremely exciting right from the start: For example, freestyle coaching is offered free of charge, where the big and small can learn to jump over obstacles and slide rails. There are also open competitions, free board tests, the popular LimboRide-Fun-Session – and a prize is awarded for the best trick. Then on the second day comes the popular and demanding slopestyle competition. Girls and boys, amateurs and experts, who compete in four age groups (under 13, under 16, under 18, and over 18 years old) will be judged. A jury led by professionals from the Aesthetics Crew scrutinises the young athletes closely. With so much skilled attention, it‘s time to dig deep into your bag of tricks to impress the judges and spectators. Medals, prize money and all kinds of non-cash prizes await the winners of the day. And yeah, we know: The winners of the overall tour will be crowned the Queens and Kings of the VÄLLEY during the last tour stop at the Hintertux Glacier in front of a big gathering.
