When the summer heat settles over Zillertal, you quickly learn how to keep cool: at the Erlebnisfreibad Finkenberg, the Erlebnisbad Mayrhofen, or right here in the rooftop outdoor pool at the Hotel Neue Post.
The sun is high in the sky, the mountain meadows glow a rich green, and a stream babbles gently in the background. Summer has arrived in Zillertal, and that means one thing: time to cool off! Luckily, you won’t have to look far – the region is home to some of Tyrol’s loveliest places to swim.
Erlebnisfreibad Finkenberg: mountain views and aquatic fun
Just three kilometres from Mayrhofen lies one of the region’s most charming outdoor pools. The Erlebnisfreibad Finkenberg is a favourite among visitors of all ages, the perfect place to swim, splash about, and unwind against the stunning mountain backdrop of Zillertal. A waterslide keeps the little ones squealing with delight while their parents soak up the sun on the generous sunbathing lawn. And even better, there’s a buffet for when you fancy a tasty break. In short: an afternoon to remember.
Erlebnisbad Mayrhofen: take a splash just around the corner
In the heart of Mayrhofen – and practically around the corner from the Hotel Neue Post – the Erlebnisbad Mayrhofen awaits water lovers big and small. With both an outdoor and an indoor pool, there’s fun to be had whatever the weather. In summer, the outdoor area opens, offering a lap pool, a slide, and a sunbathing lawn with mountain views. On rainy days, the indoor pool beckons with a giant 101-metre slide, a wild-water channel, a waterfall, and pleasantly warm water. For families especially, the Erlebnisbad Mayrhofen is a true all-rounder.
Your personal retreat: the rooftop pool
After an active summer day, perhaps the loveliest way to cool off awaits right here at the Hotel Neue Post: our rooftop outdoor pool. Slip into the pleasantly warm water, gaze across the Zillertal peaks, and let the stresses of everyday life simply melt away.
Summer in Zillertal is many things: active, colourful, unforgettable. And sometimes it’s soaking wet and gloriously cool. Pack your swimwear – the water’s calling.
