We had a beautiful day at hintertuxer glacier last season the views were undeniably breathtaking. I was very impressed with the lift and gondola infrastructure the lodges were beautiful unfortunately we missed the good snow conditions by a week or so but the grooming was top notch and the amount of area to explore was amazing.

Hintertux is just a wonder of the world that each skier has to experience at least once in a lifetime. Each time you're up there, there's a peace of time automatically set. Apres skis are very cozy, food is grear and staff is very helpful and quick. Cable cars work extremely well and there are no ques.

Awesome thrill and a huge resort. 3 gondolas are required to reach the top. Would recommend a acclimatising yourself before going right to the top! Awesome views on a clear day and a phenomenal run down right to the bottom if there is plenty snow.

Ski lifts were fast and big, the ski piste were not as hard I thought the snow was to heavy to properly carv. But the piste are wide and long. Not many bars avaliable to go to, ther eisnonly one bar that has apres ski parties.

Hintertuxer Gletscher is a glacier and therefore is a particular beast in the skiing world - it has snow all year and so is a good option for early and late season skiing when the other lower resorts have closed or not yet opened. The lifts from the base station are very quick, holding around 30 people and the slopes are well maintained although the fact that it is a glacier means there is often a covering of snow on sheet ice!

Excellent resort for early season skiing and lessons with good snow in late November.
Lunch is available at a reasonable price.
Small number of fantastic hotels nearby.
Good atmosphere in the apres ski bars.

Hintertux is a good quality resort, with a reasonable price. There are a lot of slopes for different levels and a few nice school options for beginners. The resort is huge, so you can ski on different slopes for probably about a week. However, it feels like it takes forever when travelling up to the peak, as the mountain is very high and the main gondolas are relatively slow. Overall though, it's a nice resort that every Austrian skier should visit at least once.

Hintertux is a glacier resort in Austria. This allows all year skiing.
The late and early season snow is great and so provides a good option for extra ski trips in the year. The altitude also brings powder when other resorts may be grass.
There is a good variety of blue and red runs which are great for learning new skills on, with a few blacks when you want a challenge.
The heated bubble chairs are great and the gondolas are speedy. However being a glacier the majority of lifts are t bars.
Hintertux is not a massive apres seen and is a relatively small village, however 20 minutes down the valley is mayrhofen. There are shuttle busses included with ski passes so anyone looking for a party should stay in hof and use bus up to the ski zones in the morning.
