Home to lush alpine meadows, craggy peaks with a sprinkling of snow and chocolate box farmhouses, the Alpbach Valley is an ideal place for a summer holiday.
Located between the Kitzbühel Alps and the Rofan Range, Alpbach offers a picture-perfect setting for a mountain getaway. Situated 50 km from Innsbruck and 30 km from Kufstein, reaching the resort could not be easier.
Aside from the spectacular scenery, it also has more than 900 km of marked walking paths and more than 250 km of designated mountain bike trails for guests looking to make the most of the great outdoors. And, with more than 30 huts nestled across the mountains – ideally located for those ramblers and cyclists – there’s always a welcoming lounge, well-deserved meal or comfy bed on offer.
For those more into water than walking, there are plenty of sparkling bathing lakes for guests to enjoy a dip. Head to Lake Reintal, which is the largest of the Kramsach Lakes and also considered one of the Austrian Tirol’s warmest, with temperatures reaching 25°C. Alternatively, why not sing up to a white-water adventure, whether it be jumping into the swell or riding the current in a raft (with an instructor)?
Take a break from the action and visit the many cultural highlights available. Discover the Museum of Tirolean Farmhouses in Kramsach, the Tirol’s largest open-air museum situated near Lake Reintal. Here, 14 farmhouses and 23 outbuildings bear witness to the fascinating history. Visitors can also learn about copper and silver mining back in the 15th and 16th centuries at the Museum of Mining and Metallurgy in Brixlegg and visit an incredible collection of religious art at the Augustinian Museum Rattenberg.
Plus, with the Alpbachtal Seenland Card (which is included in the prize) guests can make sure they get the very best, and most, from their holiday, with daily free rides on mountain lifts in Alpbachtal, bus services within the region, access to many of the lakes and swimming pools and entry to museums and cultural gems.
