About the area

Mayrhofen Hippach covers 107.96 km of piste served by 54 lifts, and the mix leans easy to middling: 48.75 km blue, 44.71 km red and just 0.64 km green, with 46% of the pistes (49 km) rated green or blue. Beginners get 9 magic carpets for first steps and 47 short easy runs next to a lift base. Families benefit from 10 gondola and cable-car lifts, so no chairlift loading with small children. Experts should temper expectations: 13.86 km is black or freeride terrain, 13% of the total, though one run drops 772 m.

Mayrhofen is the base to use, with the lifts 488 m away on foot. The area runs from 615 m up to 2468 m, and the longest descent measures 3348 m, so plan the lower sections around conditions. Cross-country skiers have 11.52 km of trails.
