Cycling, Long-Distance Hiking, Pilgrimage
Mindfulness. Crisp vastness, fragrant silence, wild grace and natural energy - Tyrol is a source of inspiration that invigorates all the senses. Many long-distance hiking trails cross the region: the Munich-Venice Trail, the Karwendel High Altitude Trail, the Inn Valley High Altitude Trail 2000, the challenging Via Alpina, stages of the famous Eagle's Path, the Way of St. James. Those who go on pilgrimage through the region cycle or walk on mostly quiet, naturally beautiful paths. Find peace and shelter in ancient places of worship. Be overwhelmed by majestic views and historic cultural monuments. Whether cycling along the Inn Cycle Path or pilgrimage on the Way of St. James. The journey's objective is usually the same. The path. Leave everyday hassles behind. Finding your inner self with every step. Step by step or pedal by pedal away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Towards deceleration, peace and mindfulness. The Tyrolean sections of the Way of St. James and the Inn Cycle Path are ideal for pilgrimage. Blue horizons, imposing mountain peaks, rolling hills, alluvial landscapes and babbling brooks make it easy to slow down and be completely in the here and now. It is surprisingly little that you really need when pilgrimaging through Tyrol.
Tyrol Summer & Culture
Tyrol Summer. Alpine cult(ur) with a scene. What is typical Tyrol? First a stroll through the old town, then to the museum and ending the day with a dish of traditional Kaiserschmarrn (pancakes).

Rustic alleys. Throne-like fortresses. Proud churches & monasteries. The Golden Roof of Innsbruck. Salt city and mint of Hall. Kufstein Fortress and the Rattenberg glassmaking tradition.

Innsbruck, the capital of Tyrol, is small enough that almost everything can be done on foot. Innsbruck's landmark: The "Golden Roof" in the centre of the historic old town. The lively boulevard Maria-Theresien-Strasse is a great place for shopping. An insider tip is the Wiltener Platzl with its splendid Wilhelminian style houses, old handicrafts, original gastronomy and Saturday farmers' market. Treat yourself to a green break in the Hofgarten.
