Some chalets offer comfort. Some offer access. Chalet Zillertal Arena 3 offers both—and adds something rarer: a view that stops you in the doorway every single morning. From the chalet 3, the Zillertal Arena ski slopes are just 500 meters from the front door, with panoramic mountain views from every terrace. This 125 m² semi-detached chalet for up to 10 guests is the kind of place that people return to year after year for their free time.

What Makes Chalet 3 Different
Three Edelweisshaus chalets sit in Hochkrimml—all excellent, all with saunas and slope access. So what sets Chalet 3 apart? Yes, two things stand out immediately.
First, the views: the terrace and balcony face the Zillertal Arena mountain range directly, giving guests an uninterrupted panorama from sunrise to alpenglow.
Second, the atmosphere: the wood-burning stove in the living area creates a crackling warmth that no gas fire or electric heater can replicate—guests light it on the first evening, and people rarely want to leave.
The open-plan kitchen and living area encourages exactly the kind of relaxed, sociable holiday this chalet was designed for—cooking together, planning the next day, and unwinding with a board game while the stove does the work.
Three bedrooms sleep up to 10 guests comfortably, with flexible configurations that suit families, couples traveling together, and multi-type groups equally well.

Interiors—Warmth, Views & Austrian Alpine Comfort
Every detail inside Chalet Zillertal Arena 3 has been chosen with care. The living room is centered on a comfortable seating area and a large dining table for the whole group, with the wood-burning stove as the natural focal point of the room. Natural materials, warm tones, and an open layout mean the space feels welcoming the moment you arrive, not sterile or generic.
Kitchen: The fully equipped kitchen makes self-catering genuinely enjoyable. It is fitted with a dishwasher, a filter coffee machine, a Nespresso, an oven, a microwave, an electric kettle, and a large fridge-freezer. The open-plan connection to the dining area means the cook is never cut off from the group.
Private Sauna: The sauna is private for every client, included in the rental price, and housed in its own bathroom with a separate shower. After a full day on the slopes or a long summer hike, this is where the evening begins properly.
Terrace & Balcony: This is where Chalet 3 earns its reputation. The terrace and balcony face the Zillertal Arena mountains, offering views that shift with the light from dawn to dusk. In winter, it is where guests come with coffee before the slopes. In summer, it is where the day ends.
Winter—Skiing, Snowboarding
In winter, Chalet Zillertal Arena 3 sits 500 meters from the Filzsteinalm lifts—part of the Zillertal Arena network, one of Austria's most reliable snow-sure ski destinations. Skiing is possible from early December through to late April, with slopes ranging from gentle blue runs for beginners to challenging red and black terrain for good experienced skiers.
Ski Schools in Hochkrimml: Two qualified schools operate minutes near the chalet-3, both with programs for all ages and abilities.
