Gerlos is a high Zillertal village strung along the road to the pass; many hotels sit by the lifts on the snow-front for easy ski-in/ski-out.
Gerlos sits high on the road to the Gerlos pass, the central village of the Zillertal Arena, which links with Zell am Ziller and Königsleiten for 143 km of sunny, varied piste. At 1250 m it holds snow well, and the broad, well-groomed runs suit families and intermediates, with the whole Zillertal Superskipass on the doorstep. Quieter and snowier than the valley-floor resorts, it is a smart base for skiing the wider Zillertal.
Hotels and apartments around the lifts. Compare prices on Booking, Expedia and Hotels.com.
Gerlos offers 143 km of pistes across 51 lifts, from 1,250 m to 2,500 m. Whether it suits beginners depends on the dedicated learner zones at the base of the slopes, so check the local ski-school options for green and blue run access.
The season runs from Dec 1 to Apr 21, with a snow score of 82/100. The best conditions are usually from late January through February, while spring skiing in March and April brings longer days and softer afternoons.
