Mayrhofen Reviews & Ratings

Single male snowboarer aged 53 , had a 19yr gap from when I last went and just got back into it . Mayrhoren has a vast amount of terrain that caters for all levels , I consider myself Intermediate to Advanced and using the super ski pass gave me plenty of variety of slopes to explore . The public transport by bus, coach or train to nearby resorts is really good and efficient and is covered free with your ski pass so you can explore different areas and alway have something new each day. For me my highlight was the Hintertux glacier that has mainly big wide red and blue open runs so you can really test out your board and let it go, but there's still lots of technical parts to keep you alert . Mayrhofen itself is a lovely town with plenty of good eating places and decent bars for apres at good value prices . I have been twice in a row now and won't count out another visit very soon . I'd say if you haven't been go for it, you'll love it .

Mayrhofen was great overall. The slopes are mostly well groomed although they do get carved up quite a bit throughout the day. Red runs do have snow piles though sometimes doing a quick turn would result in you dead stop due to the thick snow piles. However overall, the resort is really good, the blue runs are excellent which is what are most popular.

The resort is fairly big with ample selection of ski runs (some longer and shorter). They seem to be ok groomed and the slopes were fairly busy.
The apre was in full swing with quote a few restaurants although repetitive food options- burgers pizza etc.
The town itself is lovely, quaint with lots of accommodation options.
The ski lifts were always working and efficient.
The views at the top are some of the best!
Nothing really to complain about.

Mayrhofen was so much fun! Amazing resort with wicked apres-ski, quality restaurants and bars. Fantastic ski - we went for the snowbombing festival and even at its busiest, the runs were all pisted and it was plenty big enough to not be too crowded. The hintertux glacier is incredible - great selection of blues and reds, snowpark and amazing views.

Loved my trip to Mayrhofen. Mostly Red runs up the mountain, great varied pistes, loved the food - you have to try a currywurst! Apres ski scene is amazing and the have Snowbombing festival there every april.

As skiing gor the first time I found Mayrhofen extremely good for a complete beginner. The instructors were all very patient and encouraging. The nursery slopes were of a good mix size to build confidence. You have 2 mountains to shi The Penkin and The Aahorn. The later been very beginner friendly as well as offering something for the more expert skier. Apres ski kicks of in The Ice Bar a very vibrant stop off. You are spoilt for choice of food in the town but I must recommend the butchers opposite the penkin gondola. It's sooooo good.

The slopes were well groomed considering the lack of fresh snow at the time we visited. The snow park in Penken was great for some - and the bar at the bottom is fun for those like myself who don't ski park!

First time skiing and can see why people love it. Unreal views unreal vibes. Definitely built my confidence up over the 5 days and will be booking to come skiing again

First time on a Ski Holiday with family & it was fabulous!! The facilities, the locals, ski school, apres ski the views & the Altitude Comedy Show was the icing on the cake !

Awesome place. Loved everything about our friends trip. From the airport at Innsbruck, transfers, hotel, ski hire, the lifts, I mean wow!! The lifts, slopes, bars, people, food, connection between areas, just fantastic - I want more. Thank you Austria, first time but not the last

Fantastic resort. Great town. Great vibe. Good prices. Great ski great lifts. Brilliant friendly vibe

We had a fantastic family holiday in Mayrhofen.

It’s a small town but has plenty of options for food and drink. I especially recommend Brasserie Q.

The resort felt so high tech, most lifts are 6-8 person, with heated seats and wind covers. The resort staff were so helpful, always stepping in to make sure our 5-year-old was safe. As a snowboarder I can say not one lift I got off was difficult! And it’s such a fun and varied resort with lots for kids on both sides.

We utilised the lockers at the top of the gondola, which meant we could walk back to our accommodation without having to carry lots of equipment and with comfortable shoes on.

There are plenty of places to eat and drink in the mountain, Bergrast and Granatalm were especially good but do get busy.

Overall we loved it!

We had such a lovely snowboarding trip overall, honestly one of the better ones we’ve had in a long time. Normally when we go skiing, we always seem to have some issue with either the food or the accommodation… it’s usually overpriced and a bit underwhelming if I’m being honest. But this time was completely different.

We stayed at Elisabeth Hotel Mayrhofen, really close to the lift, and I have to say it’s one of the nicest hotels we’ve stayed in on a ski trip. The food was amazing — like properly good quality, not your usual ski resort food — and actually reasonably priced which made such a difference. The set menu especially really impressed us. And having the spa included was just perfect after a full day on the slopes.

We hired skis and a snowboard there as well, all very easy, no stress. Après ski was really good fun too, nice atmosphere without feeling too chaotic.

Mayrhofen itself is such a beautiful place, really charming, and the snow conditions were great while we were there. It is a bit on the expensive side, but I think you do get what you pay for here. One of the absolute highlights for me was the glacier — honestly amazing. I did an ice climb for charity from the town up to the glacier, which was no joke… about 7 hours of proper ice and rock climbing, really tough but such an incredible experience. We even visited the ice cave and the only marble cave in Europe while we were up there, which was just unreal. And then snowboarding all the way back down after that — I can’t even describe it, it made the whole challenge worth it.

If I compare it to other trips we’ve done — Andorra and Italy have always been great for food — but Austria, Switzerland, France… we’ve usually been a bit disappointed. This time though, it completely changed that for us.

We’d definitely come back again, no question.

Mayrhofen is a great resort with two ski areas offering a variety of runs to suit all abilities.
The town offers lively night life and great options to eat out.

Excellent ski resort with excellent options to eat out (even for veggies!). Apres ski was excellent, starting on the mountain until the last lift down and continued down in the town.
Lots of ski schools with options for individual or group lessons. I had morning individual ski lessons as I was a complete beginner with a group of experienced skiers. I booked online with Snowsports Mayrhofen. My instructor got me to the point of being confident with blue slopes by the end of the holiday.

Amazing resort, would highly recommend! Quiet slopes but still a good vibe, with cheap drinks and fun apres ski. We would happily come back and it’s our favourite resort we’ve been to!

Fantastic snow, so many varied and connected runs, great ski school and fantastic food and drink in the town.

Great resort, amazing choice for restaurants and nightclubs. Great choice of slopes and also has
Hintertux for all year skiing

Top tier lifts. Great runs, well groomed. Excellent village and very accessible. Would very much recommend to anyone

Great lifts, minimal queueing and fantastic groomed pistes. Great for my whole family with good ski schools and all facilities needed.
