Summit Tours

Hiking to the very top

Are you a mountaineering fanatic? Or would you like to become one? If so, you're in the right place! We'll show you the most beautiful summit tours in the Innsbruck area. Not all of the peaks are difficult to reach and they don’t all require top mountaineering skills.

You don't have to be a mountaineering great like Reinhold Messner to conquer some of the local peaks. Here we have put together an overview of two easy summit tours.

These tours combine the uplifting feeling of reaching the summit with a comfortable journey there. The magic word is: "Bergbahn". Because where there is a mountain lift or cable car, you only have to complete the last stretch of the route up to the summit cross yourself. Then nothing stands between you and the perfect hiking experience.

Some summit tours only require a short hike, the rest of the route is covered by a mountain lift or cable car. To see these summit tours, choose "easy" in the filters below.

Are you looking for the ultimate mountaineering experience? Would you like to reach the summit under your own steam? If so, choose "difficult". The results will then show routes for experienced mountaineers with good fitness levels.

This hike starts from the Juifenalm car park and leads up to the Juifenalm mountain hut, either along a wide forest road or a somewhat steeper summer trail. Once you come to the so-called "Jagdhütte" (hunting lodge), the forest opens up and the route continues along the path to the Juifenalm mountain hut, which is located at an altitude of 2,020 metres above sea level. From the hut, the route heads north-east, following a trail uphill past lush alpine roses, mountain flowers and beautiful alpine pastures to the Windegg summit cross (2,577 m). The views from the summit cross are truly magnificent, overlooking the Inn Valley far below and the Stubai Alps off in the distance. The hike back follows the same route.
