Summer sports in the Innsbruck region

Sporty alpine summers: mountain hut hikes, bike tours, rock climbing, downhill adventures, cool lakes, summit victories and numerous unforgettable experiences in the beautiful mountains – only Innsbruck and its holiday villages offer such a diverse range of summer experiences.

Hiking

Innsbruck locals love to hike
When we're not in town, you can find us in the mountains. Many mountain huts await, serving cool drinks and hearty snacks to provide energy for the rest of the hike. Whether climbing up high to the peaks or taking a relaxing stroll through flowering alpine meadows, hiking is passion.

Easy access to natural beauty
If the hike up is too strenuous for you, you can take one of the region's mountain lifts and cable cars and enjoy the ascent in comfort. Simply go where your mood takes you: to crystal clear mountain lakes at an altitude of 2,420 metres above sea level, to talking trees or to alpine roses, you and your family are sure to find your own personal highlight on our hiking page.

One day of hiking is not enough?
Then we recommend you try one of our multi-day mountain tours through our region - the best way to get to know the diversity of the Alps in all their glory.

Cycling and biking

The biking hotspot of the northern Alps
Five trails, two modern lifts, traditional Tyrolean mountain huts and a bike centre. The bike park at Muttereralm is the new biking hotspot of the northern Alps. With trails of all difficulty levels, there is even something for children.

A leisurely biking experience
Cycling makes you hungry. The people of Innsbruck know this and have developed two special cycling tours in Mieming and in the Inn Valley: the region's Cycle & Savour routes. The two routes combine leisurely cycling surrounded by beautiful nature with culinary delights from local farms located along the way. There is something for everyone.

Nice and easy with very little exertion
Not a big fan of mountain biking or road biking? On our site, you can also find the perfect e-bike rental service for you and information about the nearest charging stations. We really have the perfect cycling and biking options for people of all ages. Take a look and be inspired!

Climbing

We love the views from above
The region's hot summer days are very pleasant at altitude. The views of the nearby villages and the green River Inn are inspiring. Whether you are a beginner, an expert climber or somewhere in between, we have the perfect selection of varied climbing routes for you.

Indoor and outdoor
Thanks to our climbing centres, you are not dependant on the weather. This means you can be sure your family trip won't be rained off.

Via ferrata
If climbing is too dangerous for you and hiking is too boring, you are sure to love via ferrata. Steel ropes to hold on to make the climb easier.
