General presentation
Innsbruck and Tyrol
Alpine town by the Inn, between old town, Nordkette, Tyrolean valleys, accessible resorts and hikes.
Little Golden Roof, Nordkette and Stubai give the most telling landmarks of Innsbruck and Tyrol. Together, they form a destination where urban life, mountain reliefs, heritage and natural spaces meet, with atmospheres that change over the course of the stages rather than just one uniform decor.
See all
For a stay of 3 to 7 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: altitude and weather to be checked and influx in ski/hiking seasons. The trip can be organised without a car if the drop point and local connections are selected in advance. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be checked step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Town or village
Vieille ville d'Innsbruck
In the old town of Innsbruck, the painted facades and the tight arcades hold in a very close mountain setting. The Little Golden Roof, the Maria-Theresien-Strasse and the bell towers are discovered on foot, with the Nordkette in the background almost every escape between the streets.
Mountain
Nordkette
The Nordkette gives to Innsbruck Its strongest contrast: you leave the city to quickly reach an Alpine balcony. The views of the Inn Valley are spectacular in clear weather.
Mountain
Glacier de Stubai
The Stubai glacier turns Innsbruck's stay to the high mountain, with cable cars, snow possible for a long time in the year and open gazebos on the Tyrol Alps. The exit takes time and a clear weather, because clouds and wind quickly change the atmosphere up there.
