Description
For guaranteed snow, Hintertux is quite undeniably one of the best places to go. Hintertux is the main base within the Tux valley. Set at the end of the valley with access to the year round glacier. Vorderlanesbach and Lanersbach are two quieter non glacier resorts as an alternative to consider, only an easy 20 minute access to Hintertux.
The glacier provides challenging skiing with good off piste opportunities. So if what your looking for is unspoiled traditional villages covered by a snow sure glacier with and extensive lift pass coverage then Hintertux is a good choice
