Tobogganing – or rodelbahn – is almost a national sport in Austria. Take a stroll to the Wiesenhof, have a warming Jagertee (hunter’s tea), which is a kind of herbal schnapps version of tea, then go for gold! If a wooden toboggan doesn’t do it for you, there’s also snow tubing.
Other activities in Mayrhofen include cross-country skiing, snow-shoeing and off the snow there’s a strong tradition of saunas (German rules - no swimmers), loads of great places to eat and a lively nightlife to say the least, where you can enjoy traditional Austrian pub games such as hammering nails into a block of wood.
