The most beautiful trails in the Zillertal Alps
Hiking in Zillertal is the perfect feel-good programme. Roaming through the unspoilt Tyrolean countryside calms both body and mind, everyday stress melts away, and your entire musculoskeletal system is given a gentle boost. Whether age you are, athletic ambitions you may (or may not) have, the diverse hiking trails around Mayrhofen and Hippach offer nigh-on endless possibilities for all distances and levels of difficulty. Leisure hikers and families can also sample the pleasures of high alpine tours without having to master the first 2,000 metre ascent themselves, by catching one of the Mayrhofner Bergbahnen Cable Car Co. gondolas.

Hiking from hut to hut
Mountaineering legend Peter Habeler may be known for his cutting-edge ascents in the world’s biggest mountains, but for him, the most beautiful peaks are here at home in the Zillertal Valley. For this reason, he lent his name to the Peter-Habeler Trail. Hike from hut to hut with overnight stays along the Peter-Haberler Route, the Berlin High Trail, or even beyond the country's borders while crossing the Alps on on the Transalp route.
Out and about in the Nature Park
Take part on a guided Nature Park hike and let the highly trained nature park guides tell you interesting facts about the natural and cultural landscape in Zillertal.
