Want to know what Stubai in the Tirol region of Austria is really like? British journalist and filmer Chris Moran visited in his series of the chairlift chat the Tirolean ski resort and spoke to visitors and locals on the chairlifts, in the bars and on the slopes to get their take on it.

We have summarzied why its worthwhile visiting the Stubai valley:

Be one of the first ones on the slopes. Stubai glacier is part of the 5 Tirolean glaciers and is opened for skiing from September until June
Visit the Top of Tyrol and enjoy spectular views from the viewing platform on 3.210 m
Ski or snowboard one of the best funparks, the Moreboards Stubai Zoo; Stubai glacier is one of the trainings base of the British Park & Pipe Team
Visit the ice grotto on Stubai glacier
Toboggan down on one of the longest runs at the Serlesbahn in Neustift
Check out the family ski Resorts Schlick 2000 in Fulpmes in the Stubai valley
Enjoy a dip into the Stubay indoor swimmming pool and outdoor centre.

What Kind of Hiker Are You?

5 min reading time

As varied as the rich flora and fauna of Tirol, it can be interesting to consider the various inclinations and preferences that make us all unique, especially outdoorsmen. People approach hiking differently and people hike for all manner of different reasons, but I have started to notice some broad groups that account for most hiking styles. There are those seeking solitude and there are those who want to push the limits. There are those who want to capture pictures of that perfect moment and there are those who want nothing more than enjoying delectable dishes served on quaint on-mountain eateries. Naturally, there are many exceptions but I’ve found these seem to capture most hikers I’ve come across. What do you think?

Ski touring enthusiasts visiting Tirol will be pleased to know that the resorts around Innsbruck have developed a rota system to allow ski touring at night (and during the day) on the groomed slopes.
