Special features of camping in the Zillertal

Around 40 kilometres east of the Tyrolean capital of Innsbruck, the Zillertal branches off as a side valley of the mighty River Inn. Between the Tux and Kitzbühel Alps, there are idyllic campsites in the Zillertal, which stretches from Strass to beyond Mayrhofen. Some of the campsites are located in the immediate vicinity of the mountain railways, which provide easy access to the Austrian peaks.

Other courses are located directly on the banks of the river of the same name. The flat, family-friendly Zillertal cycle path runs along here. There are even pitches for caravans and motorhomes in the heart of the Zillertal Alps Nature Park. The nature reserve stretches from the mighty Reichspitze in the east over the main Alpine ridge in the south to the 3,470 metre-high Olperer in the west.

The versatile camping options in the Alpine paradise of Zillertal guarantee travellers numerous advantages. Wonderful pitches with a mountain panorama are naturally included at Erlebnis Comfort Camping Aufenfeld, Camping Mayrhofen, Campingdorf Hofer and Camping Hochzillertal in Kaltenbach. Decide for yourself: Bathing fun or winter camping, hiking or wellness - the campsites in the valley fulfil a wide range of requirements.

Weather

The climate in the Zillertal is characterised by large temperature differences. While temperatures of up to 30 degrees Celsius are measured in the beautiful outdoor pools or at the Schlitters bathing lake in summer, it is freezing cold in winter. The warmest month is July with an average maximum temperature of around 24 degrees Celsius.

Due to the inner-Alpine climate, short periods of rainfall can occur at any time in summer. On average, it rains every other day in June, July and August. It is worth taking waterproof clothing with you when camping in the Zillertal. In the sunniest months from April to September, the sun shines from the sky for 6 to 7 hours a day.
