Prévisions de Neige pour Mayrhofen

I have read varied reports on Mayrhofen, but overall, I feel it does what it says on the tin.../it ban be wild, sedate or family fun, offering something for everyone. 1st, its a very quick transfer from Munich or Innsbruck (the latter airport can be tricky weather wise and flight cost) by car or train. 2nd, The new Penkenbahn gondola has by and large removed the congestion at peak times up and down. 3rd, The town offers a great mix of restaurants, bars and cafe's, good apres-ski at various points, Ice bar, Bruck and Stadl (typical Austrian fayre) and other quieter but nonetheless good fun. The 4th, Zillertell pass will at minimum connect you to Zell am Ziller, Hintertux and the main areas of Ahorn and Penken. For families you'll find the ski schools operating at the Penken and this means that parents can ski quite widely and always get back to the school area for lunch/meeting up etc, which is quite a bonus and reassuring. The pistes are a mix of blue crusing and red a little more challenging (yes, the piste ratings aren't as aggressive as France), but the blacks are genuinely achievable for a good/intermediate skier and the Harakiri brilliantly positioned for the adventurous and fun on fresh snow and deeply challenging in compact/ice conditions. Best viewed from a chairlift that passes up the side of the piste! So, it gets a big tick from me. Brits have been coming here for years for a reason. You should put this on your calendar, along with St Anton, 3 valleys, Morzine/Avoriaz, Zermatt, Dolomites, Espace Killy and Otzal valley (obergurgl, Hochgurgl, Solden) So naysayers, back in the box and try Mayrhofen. The deli at the bottom of the Penken is great fun and good value, Brasserie Q, Mr Lei's, Mo's Diner and Pane Vino great places to eat to name a few.
