Winter Holidays in the Zillertal ...
Ski Slopes – Relaxing or Thrilling
Just five minutes (by car or ski bus) from Haus Waldruh, you’ll find one of the liveliest and most varied ski areas in the Zillertal: Mayrhofen’s Penken-Ahorn.
From Mayrhofen, there are two ways to paradise:
The Ahorn-Pendelbahn takes you up to the Ahorn in just 6.5 minutes. From there, you can enjoy fabulous views of the Zillergrund and Brandberg and carve out leisurely turns to your heart’s content on the wide, sunny slopes.
The runs are ideal for carving and cruising. The Ahorn is also the perfect choice for beginners and families who appreciate its clear layout and gentle slopes.
The Penkenbahn lift is just 200 m from the Ahorn base station. This takes you up into a realm of new possibilities on the Penken, which is famous for its action.
The Penken offers plenty of challenges for everyone. Beginners and experts alike will find a huge variety of slopes. The Harakiri run is a true test of character, plunging downhill at a 78% gradient.
You can also enjoy fabulous off-piste options with fun powder runs – but only if you take the right equipment or go with a mountain guide!
The Penken has become the place to be, especially for young, dedicated snowboarders and freestylers, and the Penken Park lives up to its reputation.
