Europe’s highest Botanical Garden is located at 2000m above sea level on Patscherkofel, Innsbruck’s “local mountain”. A bit closer to town is the University's Botanical Garden offering a great selection of Alpine flowers, medical and toxic plants as well as a unique Garden of Scents. Join a guided Nature Walk in the Mittelgebirge mountains (free for holders of the "Club Innsbruck Card") and learn more about the Alps’ special flora and fauna!

Nature and Glacier Trail in the upper Sellraintal valley
This 2.5km long trail starts in Praxmar and features several interpretive panels providing information on the Sellraintal’s flora and fauna, with a special focus on endangered amphibians.

The trail’s second part takes you from the small village of Lüsens to Fernerboden and gives insight into the development of the glaciers until today. A natural vista point affords stunning views of the surrounding peaks.
