Beautiful villages make up the series of resorts along the valley offering different terrain and experiences. Quiet and friendly. Resort and up mountain prices very fair. Plenty of varied pistes and enough off piste to keep you happy for a week.

I really like Mayrhofen. It's big enough to explore different areas on different days and get away from the crowds.
Good variety of slopes, lots of side piste, good parks, decent lift system so your day on the hill is sorted.
The apres is great if that's your thing.
It's a popular resort though so it can get crowded.

I visited this Austrian ski resort for a snowboarding/music festival in 2024, and it was absolutely unforgettable. The views were beyond stunningeverywhere you looked, there were snow-covered mountains and breathtaking scenery. The runs themselves were incredible, offering something for every skill level, and the snowboarding conditions were perfect.
The music at the festival was on point, creating the ideal vibe for après-ski fun, and it was so easy to get lost in the energy of it all. What truly made the experience special, though, were the workers. Everyone I interacted with was so warm, friendly, and welcomingit really added to the overall positive experience.
I genuinely have nothing bad to say about this resort. From the slopes to the staff to the music, everything was perfect. I wholeheartedly believe that everyone should visit this resort at least once in their life!

Found the town quite dark and felt quite removed from the ski area as only one black run down to it so cant sit and watch skiers unless you are staying in the few on mountain hotels.
Nice shopping in the town.
Get the train to some of the neighboring ski areas. Great day out on the train.

Great place for skiers of all abilities great although the season 14 Blue is a great slope for learners and improvers.

Great resort with a ton of variety. Pretty icy when we were there as it hadnt snowed in a while, but still great quality runs. Some very funny blues where the snow cannons were left on, creating snow drifts that were an immediate fall zone, but overall great stuff
Food on the resort wasnt overly expensive and good quality with a range of options for different dietary restrictions (being vegetarian in Austria can be tough!)

Fabulous family friendly resort with great skiing, brilliant hotels and food and fun apres! Take a day trip to Hintertux for glacier skiing or ride the train to a different resort

I have skied 5 times in Mayhofen over the years, and have always had a great holiday.

Excellent skiing in whole Ziller Valley. Not all linked up but theres very good buses if you need them. Zell Am Ziller was superb.
Some challenging Blacks in Mayrhofen including the Harikiri.
Good vibe in the village.

Good selection of hotels and eateries apres bars extremely busy and you struggle to get served. We stayed hotel Strass right next door to Penkenbahn I would advice requesting a room away from the attached Icebar if you like piece and quiet
The Penken lift first thing is a nightmare so get there early, first few chairs are also busy along with slopes, being a town with high cliffs all around you are limited to this one lift or Ahornbahn a ten minute walk away but pistes a limited at Ahorn (good black to resort) a couple of trips to the Hintertux glacier is well the effort as is a trip do to Zell Ziller lots of skiing there but just make sure your on Zillertal side of valley before lifts close or I guess it would be expensive taxi back
All in all a very busy resort I wouldnt rush back but I would go back at some point
