Some useful info for a stay in the Ziller valley

How do I get there?

Zillertal is located in the centre of the Tyrolean Alps, only a short hop from Innsbruck airport (50 km), Munich airport (170 km) and Salzburg airport (150 km).

Four Seasons Travel provides a shuttle service direct to Zillertal, which you can book yourself on from the airport.

Alternatively, Zillertal is connected by rail to all major destinations through the station of Jenbach with the Zillertal Railway.

 

Any good deals on liftpasses?

So, the good news is that you can enjoy all of this on just one ski pass! You could opt for individual areas, and save a few pounds, but the Zillertal Superski Pass is excellent value for money – 649 kilometres of pistes at altitudes ranging from 630 metres to 3250 metres!

Individual ski resorts determine one to three-day pass prices, but for four days or more, the Zillertal Super Ski Pass is available.

A four-day pass will set you back £125 (£99 for under 19s and £57 for under 15s), and a six-day pass will cost £174 (£140 for under 19s and £80 for under 15s).

Children aged seven and under go free with a paying adult. Head to www.zillertal.at for a resort-by-resort breakdown on prices.
