Tips
Your perfect holiday in Gerlos during any time of the year
Hike across majestic peaks or carve your way through deep powder snow in the Zillertal ski areas. Whether it’s a summer holiday or winter getaway, Gerlos and its attractions are waiting to be explored by you.
Gerlos holidays in winter
When the first snow falls in Gerlos, the village transforms into a winter wonderland, offering a seemingly never ending variety of activities. The centrepiece is undoubtedly the ski area, stretching from Zell to Gerlos and up to Hochkrimmel. With wide slopes ranging from beginner slopes to challenging descents, every winter sports enthusiast finds their personal paradise. Need more ski terrain? Then, switch to Hochzillertal, just a 30-minute drive from the Zillertal Arena – there are plenty of slopes to explore here too.
But this region offers more than just skiing. The ice skating rink invites you to twirl around, while the Gerolstein toboggan runs provide thrilling descents. If you prefer a quieter experience, enjoy the snowy landscapes while cross-country skiing or get to know the local beer culture at the Braukunsthaus. Sports enthusiasts even have the opportunity to stay active in the tennis and squash courts, even when snowflakes are falling outside. And you can experience all of this just a few minutes’ walk from our hotels in Gerlos.
