The best area to stay in Hintertux is directly in Hintertux village or the nearby village of Vorderlanersbach.Hintertux village is at the end of the Zillertal valley and is home to the valley's only glacier ski resort. It's a small, compact village centred around the main road leading to the glacier lifts. This area is ideal for those whose primary focus is skiing or snowboarding, as it offers direct access to the Hintertux Glacier cable cars, meaning you can be on the slopes very quickly.For families, Vorderlanersbach, located a short drive down the valley from Hintertux, offers a more relaxed setting. It's a slightly larger village with a good selection of family-friendly hotels and guesthouses. This village provides convenient access to the Rastkogelbahn gondola, which connects to the larger Ski Zillertal 3000 area.
