Mayrhofen

"157 kilometres of piste, 28 huts and restaurants, 49 lifts and 100 hectares of piste (with snow machines) - the greater "Zillertal 3000" ski region is extended from Mayrhofen by the Penkenbahn and from Schwendau by the Horbergbahn. 
The other ski area of Mayrofen, the Ahorn ski region, is well suited for families. It can also offers ideal practice slopes for beginners and children. The 5,5 kilometres -long valley descent (with snow machines) will appeal to very good skiers. One special feature is Ahorn Kinderland, a large childrens playground at an altitude of 2000 metres - somewhere for children to really let off steam in the snow."

The old Penkenbahn 2 stage cable car has been replaced with an express bubble but there were still queue. On the last day, we got on the train and went to Kaltenbach down the valley, only to be met with a bigger queue.
On the plus side the Rastkogel area has now been linked in with a 150 person cable car to the main area.
