Birgitz

Birgitz is beautifully situated on a mountain plateau at 860 metres above sea level and surrounded by beautiful meadows, southwest of Innsbruck at the foot of the Kalkkögel mountain. The beautiful landscape is ideal for hiking during a summer or active holiday in Tyrol. The old farmhouses in particular are worth seeing, as are the absolutely stunning views.

Innsbruck

The town is known as the "capital of the Alps" as it is the perfect destination for skiing and snowboarding in winter, and mountaineering and hiking in summer. The town itself offers countless sporting activities all year round, and has a beautiful town centre with historic buildings and an extremely friendly atmosphere. The town is surrounded by impressive mountains.

The old town dates back to the Middle Ages and still consists of a number of charming medieval houses. Facing the central square is the Golden Roof, built as the residence of the Tyrolean kings and queens in the 15th century. From here they could watch the tournaments in the town square without leaving their palaces. The Golden Roof itself is a balcony covered with almost 3,000 copper roof tiles.

The Imperial Palace is built in the late Gothic style and dates back to 1460. The palace consists of four wings around a gigantic hall in the middle (Riesensaal), which is beautifully painted in white and gold and is well worth a visit on a mini break or ski holiday to Austria!

Silver mine

Discover an old-fashioned mine and how copper and silver were mined 500 years ago. Back then, Tyrol became one of Europe's richest regions, as the town of Schwaz accounted for 85% of the world's silver production. The mine is called the mother of all mountain mines and you can take the mine carriage 800 metres down into the mountain and feel the special atmosphere.

Tratzberg Castle

Tratzberg Castle or Schloss Tratzberg is located in the town of Jenbach, where in the 13th century it served as a stronghold on the border with the then independent state of Bavaria.

AirRofan

AirRofan is the place to go if you want to experience the great outdoors in a different way, and if you need an adrenaline rush.

AirRofan is a sky-glider, gliding over 200 metres through the air from the Gschöllkopf mountain at 80 kilometres per hour. From the ride there is a fantastic view over the lake Achensee. If you prefer not to go on the flight, there is the Adlerhost lookout.

Ötztaler Ache

Those of you who like water can take a trip on the Ötztaler Ache, where it is possible to river raft or kayak on the 35 km long river. If you look up towards the mountain peaks, you can often see the wahogs jumping off the cliff sides and paragliding down to the valley in their parachutes, every summer the sky is filled with parachutes in the colours of the rainbow and it is impressive to see the air between the mountains, being filled by these wahogs.
