Zillertal Alps Natural Park

Welcome to a recognised paradise. Since 1991 the untouched mountain landscape of the Zillertal Alps have been under protection, and in 2001 it received the title of "Natural Park".

This internationally known category of protection officially distinguishes this beautiful area between green valleys and white glacier giants as a place to protect!



The Zillertal Alps Natural Park reaches over all central alpine altitude levels from 1,000 m to 3,510 m and so is a true high mountains park. The total area of the park is 377 km² - and should you want to walk through the whole park, you would be on the road for a whole seven days!

Experience the Zillertal Alps Natural Park and its alpine wildlife and flora whilst walking, climbing, mountain climbing or biking in summer, and cross-country skiing or skiing in winter. Discover the fascination of nature on a holiday in Zillertal:

Deep ravines next to incredible pastures, precious cultural landscapes beside rough mountain faces, glacial rocks of the Zillertal divide and the unique flora and fauna …
