    Mountains around Innsbruck: LANDSCAPES
  • Tip Rating:
  • This is another nice photo taken in Alps mountains around the city of Innsbruck.Another nice place to see very close to the town is the beautiful Ambras Palace, (Schloss Ambras).I didn't had the chance to go there but our local guide told us that is another nice and interesting place to visit with time enough and located just outside Innsbruck.

  • Tip Rating:
  • 'climbing path' above innsbruck; you can get an impression of climbing (but you need a little experience and the right equipment!!)

  • Tip Rating:
  • Hugerberg, Seegrube and Hafelekar

    Walking North along the river bank for maybe 15 minutes. you will come to the Hungerburgbahn terminus. This is a funicular railway that begins the three stage ascent of this mountain.

    Mountains around Innsbruck: After you get off at...
  • Tip Rating:
  • After you get off at Hungerburg you get a cable car up to Seegrube and then from there can continue up to Hafelekar, which is about 2300m. No doubt the views from there are fantastic, but we didn't go the whole way up (Susan hates cable cars and it takes all her courage to go even a little way in one).

  • Tip Rating:
  • Escape the crowds and ascend the Nordkette mountains the quickest way by the Hungerburg funicular Bahn which leaves from the station at end of Rennweg (tram lines No. 1 and No. 6). The Hungerburg plateau provides a good base for hiking or if you're feeling lazy then cable cars (Nordkettenbahn) also continue from here to just below the summit - Bergstation Hafelekar. Either way admire the views of the River Inn Valley and surrounding peaks.

    Mountains around Innsbruck: Bob Bahn Starting Gate
  • Tip Rating:
  • This is a picture of the women's starting gate of the Bob Bhan. If you hike up far enough you'll first reach the woman's gate and a bit further up the run and you'll find yourself at the men's gate. It's a pretty impressive course espically since I have never seen one in person.

    Mountains around Innsbruck: Bob Bahn
  • Tip Rating:
  • bob bahn - Found in the hills just outside of Innsbruck this bobslead course was used for two olympic games that were hosted by Innsbruck. In the winter it is still used and in the summer it makes for an interesting hike. The size of some of the turns are amazing reaching upards of 10 to 20 feet.

  • Tip Rating:
  • ~Why all of the sudden such an interest in the toy hamster? hehe~ When I was visiting Innsbruck, we went hiking near Tulfes. It's so beautiful!!! The hiking is moderately difficult, but then, of course, I'm not in shape, but I did get up. There are local maps with the hiking trail numbers. THe first 'pitstop' is Rinn Alm. It's just a little restaurant. We were the only ones there at that time. But you can get a light snack. The views are incredible. This is one of the first spectacular views. It's looking out to the city of Innsbruck. The item in front is just a toy hamster-(don't ask!!)
