New fun-park opens on the Hintertux glacier providing all-year-round freestyling!

Posted by Amigo on 24 November 2014

From the beginning of December 2015 the new Winterpark Hintertux at Sommerberg will open which, in addition to the Betterpark Hintertux at Olperer, now offers freestyling fun at the Hintertux Glacier (located in the Zillertal valley of Tyrol) almost all-year-round.

Whilst the Betterpark Hintertux at Olperer offers the world’s freestyle elite optimum training conditions from April through to December (closing only for a short time in August), the Winterpark is dedicated to newcomers on the freestyle scene. The 3-4 lines with a total of 18 jumps are shaped daily and convenient lift access is provided by the 4 seater Tuxerjoch with bubble canopy where you can watch the park folk from above, or check out air dog antics at the kicker.
