Altitude of the Zillertal Nature Park

The Nature Park, in which our Gletscher Aktiv Hotel Hintertux – Tux is located, extends from approx. 1,000 m above sea level to 3,509 m across all altitude levels of the Central Alps. Depending on factors such as altitude, exposure, geological conditions or the history of the respective location, you will find very different habitats, animal and plant species.

Due to the vertical extension of the high mountain nature park, the number of habitats is very large, and the flora and fauna are very diverse. Glaciers cover a considerable part of the nature park and have always shaped the landscape.

The Zillertal Nature Park and its

Natural & cultural landscape

In addition to the natural factors, people also strongly influence the current image of the natural and cultural landscape. Their ways of life and economic activities can be seen in the landscape and, especially in the Alps, make up the charm of the varied and romantically perceived mountain landscape.

The high mountain nature park at our Gletscher Aktiv Hotel in Hintertux – Tux offers you a wide range of recreational opportunities. Either sporty and active with mountain hiking, climbing, mountain biking or enjoyable, leisurely on extended walks through the beautiful and varied nature park landscape.

I had a great stay at Hotel Kossler during the May holidays! Perfect location – quiet, beautiful, and close to Hintertux Glacier, where I enjoyed amazing snowboarding. The room was clean and comfortable, breakfast was tasty and varied, and the staff were super friendly. Special thanks and warm greetings to Ms. Karina – you made the stay even better! Highly recommended – I’ll definitely be back!

Very helpful staff members. I was using only sauna and it’s unusual because in most of hotels you can’t use sauna if you’re not guest. Here cost is 5€ and sauna is open till 8:00 PM from 11:00 if I remember. Can’t say anything about rooms cause as I said I wasn’t a guest but it’s very nice bar with descent restaurant. If you don’t have a towels they will help you. There is small disadvantage like there is no hot water in this area where you’re cooling you body down. But it’s outside balcony for cooling your system inside.

Super nice hotel. Perfect location (skibus directly in front of hotel), very good food, good beds and nice room. But most of all: very friendly and attentive staff! Loved it. We were so happy, that we immediately booked again for next year.

Wir waren das dritte Mal da, allerdings nur im Restaurant, welches wir uneingeschränkt empfehlen können. Das Essen ist sehr gut und auch für die Region preislich gut.
