Mayrhofen in the Ziller Valley:

Mayrhofen is a charming little town in the Austrian Alps, with a population of less than 4,000. Its picturesque location in Austria’s famous Ziller Valley, approximately one hour from Innsbruck, attracts visitors from all over Europe throughout the year.

The town was first mentioned at the start of the 13th century and initially developed into a popular summer destination. With the construction of the Penken cable car in the 1950s and the Ahorn cable car in the late 1960s, Mayrhofen later also gained recognition on the tourism map as a popular winter sports resort.

Our hotel is in the centre of Mayrhofen at the end of the pretty high street, dotted with restaurants, bars, cafés, and boutiques. Characterised by beautiful Alpine buildings, the resort has retained its charming character and is popular with German, Austrian, and British holidaymakers. The region is frequented by many sports enthusiasts because of the variety of activities on offer, from climbing, train running, hiking, cycling, and paragliding. Families love the relaxed atmosphere of the town and the family-friendly activities on offer.

This is our first summer trip to Mayrhofen, but by no means our first stay at the Hotel Neue Post. To give you an idea, how we run our single parent activity holidays in Austria, we have selected some testimonials from our trips to Ramsau and Kitzbühel in the summer of 2025.

"Thank you to SPOH & Daniela for a wonderful holiday. The range of activities on offer were fantastic - so many of which I wouldn’t have done if it was just me and my child away on our own."
- Lucy & Finlay (7) - single parent activity holiday in Austria (Ramsau) in August 2025
"What a wonderful experience. Kids had a ball. Adults relaxed and socialised. The accommodation and activities were amazing. "
- Sarah, Jacob (11) & Jodie (7) - single parent activity holiday in Austria (Kitzbühel) in August 2025
"The group were like a family from the moment the holiday began."
- Thomas & Emily (9) - single parent activity holiday in Austria (Kitzbühel) in August 2025
"I absolutely loved our SPOH break in Reith with my 7 year old. The hotel was really brilliant – great rooms, great service, amazing and huge buffet, which was all inclusive and we spent a lot of time at the pool.
Lisi World (the kids area) was wonderful as it was a huge play barn where the kids could run around supervised for hours if adults wanted a break or to chat after dinner. There were also other on site activities such as Mountain Drop and a climbing tower and tennis courts.
Daniela hosted wonderfully and we had some great days out which had a range of options so you could pick what suited your child's age and appetite for adventure. Great group of families as always, and we made lovely new friends. If you are on the fence, give it a go – we've been on two SPOH holidays now and loved them both."
