The Penken is the main artery of Mayrhofen. With a state-of-the-art cable car ferrying an incredible 3,840 passengers per hour, expect no queues, a speedy service (8 minutes to the top) and mountains of pistes to explore. The Ahorn boasts the longest artificially snow-covered downhill run in the Zillertal, descending from almost 2,000m to the valley floor – great for newbies or those looking for an easy ride. The Glacier is an out-of-town, world famous ski spot, with 230km of perfectly groomed ski runs for all levels and abilities.

Learn To Ski & Snowboard
Snowbombing is the perfect place to learn to board or ski. There are daily lessons with qualified instructors and numerous nursery slopes for newcomers to practice together. We also offer more advanced sessions for those piste-pros looking to perfect their technique.
Not for you? You don’t have to ski to enjoy Snowbombing. Every day at the festival there are parties, activities and unique mountain experiences that don’t involve strapping on a pair of skis. Grab a sled and smash the Snowlympic games, or dance the day away at our mountaintop venues – come evening, everyone enjoys the après-ski together!

The wet ’n’ wild finale to our Ride & Seek competition is a firm favourite amongst festival-goers and pro-skiers alike. Watch poolside as brave Snowbombers take on the icy challenge. Can you make it across the water?
Get Active
Take cruisy bike rides to glassy alpine lakes, paraglide to witness the breathtaking sights of Austria from a birds-eye perspective, climb a cliff face and be at one with nature, or hike through the majestic mountains to witness panoramic views of the Ziller Valley – experience endless adventure from the best vantage points the resort has to offer.
The Village
We’re very lucky to call this stunning alpine resort our home and to be hosted by such welcoming & friendly locals each April. Expect charming cultural quirks and mouth-watering cuisine from the incredible array of hotels, restaurants, bars, cafes and shops dotted around town.
Sustainability At Snowbombing
We pride ourselves on working as a community to protect our winters, save our snow and preserve the local Zillertal Alps nature park. The resort’s economical cycle is about as local as it gets – from locally sourced beer, baked goods, meats and more, we’ve swapped out festival style traders for locally sourced cuisines. We offer a range of green travel options, including coach travel from the UK, shared customer airport transfers, and our infamous Road Trip, which encourages 100 cars of festival-goers to carpool across Europe. Sustainability is at the heart of Snowbombing.
