Mayrhofen partying is a mix of the traditional Austrian and the traditional British – but it’s all completely bonkers. The traditional Austrian après ski is handled nicely by the Ice Bar, which is directly next to the bottom of the Penkenbahn. This place is already rammed by 4pm with plenty of Austrian, German and Dutch revellers, all fuelled on jagermeister and euro-pop, or the even dodgier schlager music. By 4.15, someone’s usually dancing on a table in their ski-boots singing “Oi oi oi!” If you’ve been on the Ahorn then at the bottom of that area the Brück’n Stadl has a similar après ski arrangement.

The English pub, the Scotland Yard, provides a good respite from this Austrian madness and is open until 2am. It’s usually the choice of the locals and seasonnaires.

Just out of town back towards the Ahornbahn is the Gasthoff Zillertal, a youth hostel mainly serving the young and the rowdy with cheap beer, all night food and live music. Many young loves and broken hearts have been made here as the locals, the Dutch, German, Swedish and British all culminate in one sweaty dancehall.
