A classic double room for single occupancy isn’t automatically an experience for solo travellers. During a solo trip, a hotel becomes not just a place to sleep, but a Starting Point for experiences. Solo travellers in particular benefit when encounters can happen without having to actively seek them out.
Tirol is a place where sport and community are closely intertwined. Its proximity to the mountains means that many people spend their free time outdoors. From trail running meet-ups and gravel bike rides to after-work group rides: taking part is usually less about getting to know one another and more about sharing a common passion.
Tirol’s Mountain Lodges/Huts are perhaps one of the best places for solo travellers. Whilst on many mountain hikes everyone follows their own pace during the day, a special sense of community develops in the Mountain Lodge/Hut in the evening. Anyone travelling alone will quickly find company here: people chat about the hike, the next Stage of the journey or the most memorable moments at the summit.
Travelling on your own gives you the chance to set your own pace, without having to make compromises and without a timetable. Here, you’ll find peace and time for yourself.
City breaks on your own have one particular advantage: you can decide on the spur of the moment where the day will take you; you often notice more details and it is easy to strike up a conversation with other travellers or locals.
Wellness breaks are often associated with holidays for couples. Yet a solo break is actually the perfect way to switch off. A day spent in the sauna, pool and relaxation area helps you take a step back from everyday life and gives you space to unwind.
A guided hike, photography tour or nature experience event is an ideal way for solo travellers to get to know Tirol.
If you’re travelling on your own, you don’t have to stay on your own. Events are the perfect places to meet people. The typical Tirolean character provides plenty of opportunities for conversation without any awkward situations.
A singles holiday doesn’t have to be packed with activities every day. Often, it’s the quiet moments that make a holiday special. Practising yoga amidst the Tirolean mountains combines exercise, nature and mindfulness – without any pressure to perform.
People who travel alone often discover a new side to themselves. Activities such as rafting, canyoning or paragliding not only provide an adrenaline rush, but also create shared experiences that quickly bring people together.
