Mayrhofen in the Zillertal is a favourite among paragliders thanks to its excellent thermals. In winter, you can take off from Penken and glide silently over the spectacular snowy panorama of the Zillertal Alps.
A dinner at over 3,000 metres above sea level, surrounded by a spectacular world of ice and rock and, after sunset, a starry sky that seems close enough to touch. In the ice Q restaurant - the legendary James Bond "Spectre" location - you can look forward to selected gourmet creations in an unrivalled ambience.
The blackest and therefore most difficult piste in Austria has recently been added to the Kaunertal Glacier. With a gradient of 41.3° or 87.85 %, it is even steeper than the famous "Streif" Ski World Cup piste. Anyone who masters this Black Ibex can count themselves among the champions.
You’ve probably never had breakfast like this before: in a panoramic gondola at the Hintertux Glacier ski area. Whether you prefer a classic or Bavarian breakfast, there’s no rush – simply take as many laps as you like and enjoy a cosy, completely relaxed start to the day.
Descend a few metres, and you’re ready for take-off. Now you can lean back, relax, and enjoy the breathtaking view high above Lake Achensee. In winter, a paragliding tandem flight from Maurach is also possible with skis.

The highest architectural highlight in Tyrol, Café 3440, is located at the summit of the Hinterer Brunnkogel. Thanks to state-of-the-art cable car technology, it is easy to reach and you can enjoy exceptional culinary delights in the face of Tyrol's highest mountain - the Wildspitze in the middle of the Ötztal Alps.
The Crystal Cube is not only THE address for gourmets in the Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis ski area, the architecturally unique building with its all-round glazing also offers a fantastic 360° view at 2,600 metres above sea level.
Have you ever wondered how a ski resort actually works? How do the gondolas get on the cable, where are they parked in the evening, what technology is behind the snowmaking? All these questions are answered by the employees of the mountain railway company on the "Behind the scenes" tour of the Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis ski area.
The Tyrolean ski resorts offer skiing at its best, as well as many other extraordinary winter experiences on and off the slopes. You can experience the Alps from above on a tandem paragliding flight over Maurach, paragliding in Mayrhofen, a gondola breakfast on the Hintertux Glacier or a visit to the world's largest summit cross in Pillerseetal. Glide over very special pistes on a piste bully in the Kaunertal, on the longest ski circuit in the world between the KitzSki and SkiWelt Wilder Kaiser-Brixental ski areas and on the most difficult piste in Austria on the Kaunertal Glacier. Culinary summit experiences, on the other hand, are promised by a canopy dinner at over 3,000 metres above sea level in Sölden, Austria's highest coffee house on the Pitztal Glacier or an exclusive lunch in the Crystal Cube in Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis. Have you always wondered what it's like behind the scenes of a ski resort? You will find the answer during a guided tour in Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis.
You can find more information about the extraordinary piste experiences in the Tyrolean mountains on the websites of the individual ski resorts. There you can also pre-register for the various winter activities and make a binding booking.
