Winter walking regions in Tyrol

The highest peaks in Tyrol, the largest national park in the Alps, above-average hours of sunshine - if that's not a good basis for an unforgettable winter hiking trip? One village in the south of East Tyrol stands out in particular.

The tranquillity, the subdued atmosphere of snow-covered forests and alpine meadows can best be experienced in the Reutte Nature Park region on one of the 26 winter hiking routes.

The Kelchsau near Hopfgarten, the Kaiserbach valley near Kirchdorf, the Pillersee and many more - the Kitzbühel Alps are home to numerous winter hiking paradises.

An ideal altitude and 130 kilometres of prepared routes for winter hiking make the Tyrolean Oberland the perfect place for leisure hikers as well as those with sporting ambitions.

Snow-covered forests, gentle mountain scenery, subdued tranquillity: winter hiking in the Wildschönau is a wellness cure for the soul. There are cleared paths both in the valleys and at higher altitudes. And the most beautiful places can be discovered on a tour with a guide.

Steep mountain faces, striking peaks and narrow, densely forested side valleys characterise the landscape of the Ötztal. Winter hikes far away from the hustle and bustle of the ski resorts reveal the romantic, unspoilt side of the valley.

The proximity to the main Alpine ridge gives Paznaun and its side valleys a high snow guarantee. Between the three-thousand metre peaks of the Samnaun group and the Verwall, nature lovers will discover peace and quiet away from the ski resorts, but also a lively hospitality culture.

The sunny and panoramic Mieminger Plateau and the Sellrain Valley with its quiet side valleys in the midst of high mountains offer an excellent infrastructure for winter hikers.

The five quiet mountain valleys of the Wipptal seem particularly sleepy in winter and are therefore perfect for a winter hike through dreamy snowy landscapes.
