• Visits to :
  • Krimml Waterfalls
    • Europe’s largest waterfalls – experience the unbridled power of the element of water up close: With a drop of 380 metres, the Krimml Waterfalls are one of the most impressive natural spectacles in the world.
  • Kitzbuhl
    • Kitzbühel is always in season – but in summer and autumn, the “Gamsstadt” reveals its most diverse side. Surrounded by alpine meadows, tranquil lakes, and scenic peaks, the atmosphere both energizes and calms. Whether it’s hiking, a trip to Lake Schwarzsee, or enjoying regional cuisine – Kitzbühel offers space for genuine experiences.
  • Innsbruck
    • Innsbruck has many different facets. It is a university town, a sports destination and a city of culture in one. Over 150,000 people call this city home. And love this place that is so close to the mountains yet still has everything you expect of urban life. The almost 30,000 students at the University of Innsbruck also appreciate this winning combination and the city’s more lively side is thanks to them.
  • Zillertalbahn Diesel Railway
    •  The Zillertal Railway or Zillertalbahn is a 760 mm (2 ft 5+15⁄16 in) gauge independent railway running along the valley of the river Ziller (Zillertal) in Tyrol, Austria. The 32 kilometres (20 mile) line starts in Jenbach and terminates in Mayrhofen.
  • Achenseebahn Cog Railway 
    • Since 1889, the Achensee steam cog railway has been puffing its way up the mountain from Jenbach in the Inntal Valley to Lake Achensee, covering nearly seven kilometres and climbing 440 metres in altitude. This historic railway is the oldest of its kind in Europe. Hop aboard this vintage train and travel back in time as you enjoy the breath-taking scenery and woodlands on the way from the Inntal Valley to Lake Achensee, Tirol’s largest lake. The journey ends at Seespitz in Maurach.
