Geocaching

Geocaching connects nature with hiking fun. It is ideal for families and those who don't like walking because it includes solving puzzles, completing tasks and searching for hidden treasure. The list below shows which 'treasures' are hidden in Innsbruck and the surrounding area. 

 

Period: spring – autumn

This multicache in and around Silz shows you the varied landscape of the holiday destination in the Mieminger Plateau & Inntal area. The tour leads you through the centre of the town as well as the surrounding forest. You should plan around three hours for your entire walk to the treasure.
