Obergurgl. End of June we celebrate the coming of summer in this town with a big festival; “Fest der Berge” as we call it.
The colourful alpine flora of this region invites you for long hikes through breathtaking scenery. The unpolluted air at these heights and the unique vegetation make this place an unforgettable holiday spot.

Obergurgl is famous for very exclusive and challenging hiking possibilities. The local guides will be happy to show you some of the most amazing spots around. The area around is very rich in mineralss. Particularly the Ötztaler Almandin-Granat is an attraction for mineral collectors.

Hochgurgl. Hochgurgl is the glacier village of the Tyrol. Here you can experience Nature’s splendour in all colours and shades. The sun seems different at such heights, the scent of the trees and flowers is unspoilt. This is a true climber’s and wanderer’s paradise. Start your hike with the next mountain cottage as your target to stop at. This is a very old and reliable method to discover where the people have always wandered for years in this solitude. An experience that you should definitely not miss out on is the sun rise and the sun set between the glaciers. Just spectacular!

A very fascinating trekking tour follows the the path of the Timmelsjoch-Hochalpenstrasse. It is definitely one of the most beautiful tracks in the Alps. Besides the highest pass in the eastern Alps at the height of 2.509 meter is a treat of a special class. Take a bike, a Motorbike or a cabriolet to enjoy the beautifully built unending serpentine roads.
