A quick breath of alpine air and be within reach of Innsbruck? Then it must be the Sistraner Alm, which is an ideal destination for mountain bikers, hikers or families!
After the rainy phases of the last days I used the nice weather on sunday for a little tour to the Sistranser Alm. Sistrans can be reached in about 15 minutes by car from Innsbruck. Public transport is also well connected and therefore a convenient alternative. The Innsbruck Card would be the perfect investment for all Innsbruck & its holiday villages explorers. Along the Almweg you reach the parking lot at the upper end of the village of Sistrans, from where you start to the Sistranser alp start. The trail leads through the forest most of the time, but regularly offers great views of Innsbruck.
Well signposted is half the battle 😉

Beautiful light effects in the forest to the Sistranser Alm
The path leads through the forest, which provides again and again with clearings free view on Innsbruck
Please take a seat and enjoy!
With an ascent of about one and a half hours, the Sistranser Alm is an ideal destination for hikers and bikers. There is also a forest road leading to the mountain pasture, on which an almost 65-year-old e-biker overtook us very casually – it’s interesting these bikes with motors. At the top, the alp impresses with loving details, a true paradise for children and a great map for the small or big hunger. Below the Alm there’s a small bench that invites you to linger. I sat there as if captivated. The wonderful view, the clear air and the fact of having done something for myself again always fill me with pure happiness! I just love being active!
We have arrived.
There you go, that’s what it says.
A rustic hut
I’ll just stay here…
…and let the panorama take effect on me
And where could you do this better than in and around Innsbruck? Best you just experience it yourself! The little bench below the hut, where I recorded these impressions for myself, is also waiting for you!
