Description

Innsbruck's Nordkettenbahnen lifts and cable cars take you to the start of this hike where the views are already fantastic. Continue along the Goetheweg trail up to Gleirschspitze peak. The summit cross is beautiful and the views from the peak are absolutely stunning: to the north lie the high peaks of the Karwendel mountains, to the east Rumerspitze and the Lower Inn Valley, to the south and south-west the Tux Alps, the Stubai Alps and the city of Innsbruck.
