The Tuxertal is a valley in Tyrol, Austria, a side valley of the Zillertal from which it branches at Mayrhofen. About 13 kilometers long and accessible via the Tuxer Strasse, it runs from Mayrhofen to Hintertux, the village that gives the valley its name, with a height difference of roughly 850 meters. The valley ends at Hintertux and the Hintertux Glacier, and is drained by the Tuxbach, which rises near Hintertux and flows to Mayrhofen where it joins the River Ziller.
