Zillertaler Alps.
Experience and protect nature – that’s the motto of the High Alps Nature Park Zillertal Alps which was named Nature Park of the Year in 2015. With over 230 themed hikes in the summer programme, you have the chance to get to know the diverse nature and culture of the region. Highlights include the trekking tours on the Berlin High Trail or along the Peter Habeler Route, where you can hike up to some of the most beautiful peaks in the region. The High Alps Nature Park Zillertaler Alps starts from the mountaineer village at Ginzling and extends upwards from here by 1,000 m, right up to the highest peak in the Zillertal Alps, the Hochfeiler, which is 3,509 m above sea level. In total, the Park covers 422 square kilometres and all of the characteristic peaks of the Zillertal Alps.

Climbing & Via Ferrata.
Climbing is one of the oldest sports practised in the Zillertal valley. So it’s no wonder that the Zillertal, and Mayrhofen in particular, made an international name for itself as a destination for mountain climbers fairly early on. Eight via ferrata routes challenge climbers of all levels. Amongst these via ferratas, you can find routes with varying degrees of difficulty, and even a dam wall, which is a challenge just waiting to be taken on. Defy the laws of gravity in the spectacular natural scenery of the Zillertal Alps and overcome your own limits. The via ferratas in Mayrhofen-Hippach are also regularly maintained and inspected, and guarantee a huge amount of climbing fun with the highest level of safety possible.
Paragliding & hang-gliding.
Fulfil your dreams of flying. Whether you are paragliding or hang-gliding, endlessly gliding over the Zillertal valley is always excellent. It’s a perfect year-round activity for free-flyers and for tandem passengers guided by an experienced pilot.
Rafting and canyoning.
Wild, untamed and thrilling – experience water and the raw power of mountain nature up close by going rafting and canyoning in Mayrhofen. Leap, abseil and slide your way through gorges with some rope, a wetsuit and a good amount of courage. Your canyoning adventure begins just two kilometres from Mayrhofen and is an experience filled with pure adrenaline. Or become part of a team in a raft and pull your weight in the gushing River Ziller. Master rapids and powerful currents, all the while using your muscle power to keep the boat balanced.
