Here's why Tyrol rewards self-guided hikers:

Home to the Stubai and Zillertal Alps, two of Austria's most dramatic high-mountain ranges
Innsbruck, Tyrol's capital, sits directly beneath the Nordkette range - a rare city-to-summit setting
Part of the E5 Alpine Crossing route, one of Europe's classic long-distance Alpine trails
Traditional Gasthof accommodation in mountain villages, hand-picked for hikers
Trails graded from valley walks to high-Alpine passes, so most fitness levels find a route

Tyrol like a local

When to go
June through September for high-Alpine trails, when snow has cleared from the passes. Valley routes near Innsbruck are walkable from May.
What the trail is like
Terrain ranges from gentle valley paths to rocky Alpine passes above 2,000m on the higher routes. Waymarking is excellent throughout Austria.
Where you'll stay
Traditional Gasthof guesthouses and mountain hotels in villages throughout Tyrol, chosen for comfort after a day on the trail. Luggage transfers are included where routes allow.
How fit do I need to be
Valley routes suit regular walkers. Higher Alpine stages on routes like the E5 require good fitness and some experience with mountain terrain.
Booking timing
Book 4-6 months ahead for July and August, Tyrol's busiest hiking months.
