Hotel Alpenhof Hintertux – Active Holidays with Fine Dining and Glacier Views in the Zillertal
At the foot of the Hintertux Glacier – Austria's only year-round ski area – lies Hotel Alpenhof Hintertux, a 4-star superior property that the Dengg family has been running with passion for over 90 years, now in its fourth generation. That deep-rooted hospitality is felt in every detail: warm, stylish and with an unwavering commitment to quality.
Whether it's a ski tour in winter or glacier skiing in summer, a summit hike or a mountain bike ride in autumn – the Alpenhof is the ideal home base for active travelers in every season. Following its major renovation, the hotel now welcomes guests in fresh new style: modern Natur Suites and the new Natur Suite Family, featuring natural materials, loggias, and open mountain views, create spacious retreats for every generation.
Culinarily, the Alpenhof sets the bar high: head chef Maximilian Stock combines seasonal, regional ingredients with creative flair at the highest level – honoured with a Michelin star, 4 Gault & Millau toques and 95 points in the Falstaff Restaurant Guide.
Fitness, Sport & Regeneration: Staying Active – Indoors and Out
The Alpenhof sees fitness as a natural extension of the mountain experience. The expanded wellness area now spans 4,000 m² and includes a new panoramic fitness studio, a dedicated yoga room, a 20-meter sports pool, a cold-water pool and rooftop whirlpool, plus a new event sauna. A dedicated adults-only spa area guarantees peace and quiet for those seeking relaxation, while families will find their program in the 2,800 m² garden spa.
Outdoors, the region around Hintertux offers an extensive network of hiking and biking trails at altitudes between 1,250 and 3,250 metres – complemented by climbing, canyoning, rafting and paragliding. Guided hikes Monday to Friday and a weekly e-bike tour led by the Alpenhof guide take guests to the most beautiful spots in the Tux Alps. The Zillertal Aktivcard rounds off the active programme perfectly.
