Logo It’s been way too long, Penken Park!

2020 is coming to an end. And even though no one will miss this year, the end of it brings something amazing: snow! The mountains of Mayrhofen in the Zillertal have been covered in white gold over and over again in the last few weeks and left us dreaming of an early start of the season in the Penken Park.

This could be by far the best season yet – best meaning by 1.5 meters away from each other. Sorry for the trashy pun, but of course you also have to follow some safety rules in the Penken Park this season., You can find these on the website of the Mayrhofner Bergbahnen. The reason is obvious but enough about this topic, social distancing should not be a problem on the massive kicker line in the Penken Park. And of course, it's coming back this winter. A job for park groomer Steff Morocutti, who was already the mastermind behind the enormous jumps the past seasons. Park designer Norbert Benauer is responsible for the entire masterpiece. The playground in Mayrhofen has been bearing Norbert's signature for several years now and will be creative and beastly again in 2020/21.

Never change a sending team
Not only the Shape Crew works on the highest level in Mayrhofen, also the Penken Park Team keeps impressing. Werni Stock, Tom Tramnitz, Alex Walch, Mario Wanger and Simo Peltola are once again sending in the name of the Penken Park - as we all know, that's what they do best. On the @penkenpark Instagram channel you can find a bunch of proof for that.
