Alpine adventure or shopping malls? Imperial Palace or cutting edge architecture?
No need to struggle to make the right decision - with a holiday in Innsbruck you get the best of both worlds, the city AND the mountains. Where else can you wander around a historic down town, indulge in some leisurely shopping before lunch and then take a designer cable car to whisk you up the mountains for afternoon tea - only in Innsbruck, the Capital of the Alps!
Hike & City Package
Innsbruck's special Hike & City package is already available from € 169. This includes three nights B&B in a four-star hotel of your choice as well as guided hikes with the professional guides from the famous mountaineering school "AlpinSchule Innsbruck", hiking equipment rental (boots and rucksack), transport on the hiking bus and one up- and downhill ride each with Innsbruck's spectacular uphill facilities Nordkettenbahnen which take their passengers from the city centre of Innsbruck to a fantastic view at an altitude of 2,300 metres within a mere 20 minutes.
Après-hike pleasure
In Innsbruck you are spoilt for choice by a vast range of gourmet restaurants offering superb cuisine with regional and international flavours. Each of them is striving to provide traditional Alpine style - or in a sophisticated urban setting. Innsbruck's restaurants take advantage of the nice weather with outdoor seating becoming very popular just as it is elsewhere in the world - however, nowhere else in the world is the splendid mountain scenery so fine a dining companion!
The Innsbruck Card
If you're keen on getting to know Innsbruck inside out, pick up the popular Innsbruck Card. It allows you free travel on Innsbruck's entire public transport network, including the seven cable cars and the sightseeing bus. The card also grants you free admission to 18 museums and attractions, including the Alpine zoo and the Swarovski Museum. Finally, use your Innsbruck Card for a guided city tour (in English) and a welcome drink at the famous Innsbruck Casino.
