    Ski lifts at the ski resort Hintertux Glacier (Hintertuxer Gletscher)

    From the base station in Hintertux, you go up to the highest point on the glacier in three sections with modern funitels (Gletscherbus 1-3). The Gletscherbus 3 is also the highest funitel in the world. You can also get up to the glacier quickly from the Tuxer Fernerhaus with the 10-person Gefrorene Wand gondola lift. Since the 2015/2016 season, the new 6-person Lärmstange chairlift with weather protectors and seat heaters provides access to the slopes on the Kaserer. The slopes on the glacier are accessed with a total of 6 tow lifts. A 6-person chairlift brings winter sports fans back to the Sommerbergalm.
