Innsbruck: Circular Hike on Patscherkofel Mountain｜Austria

Our meeting point is at 9:30 AM at the Patscherkofelbahn valley station in Igls. After a brief welcome, we will take the cable car up to the mountain station right next to the rustic Patscherkofel mountain hut. From here, we will start our circular hike on the beautiful Zirbenweg trail, which offers great views, in the direction of the Boscheben Alpine Inn. Up to this point, the view of the Inn Valley and the Karwendel accompanies us through the sparse Swiss pine forest, offering countless opportunities to take in the sweeping panorama.

We will now leave the well-known Zirbenweg trail and follow the ridge towards the summit until we head south and immerse ourselves in the tranquility of the Tuxer Alps. As we make our way around the mountain, the view increasingly opens up toward the Wipptal and Stubai Valleys, with distinctive peaks such as the Serles, the Habicht and the Stubai Glacier mountains. This constantly offers new perspectives and insights into the diverse, varied mountain landscape with its endless motifs.

Our onward route around Innsbruck's local mountain slowly leads us back towards our starting point and once again affords us incomparable views of Innsbruck and the Inn Valley.

Since we will be in alpine terrain, we have to take weather conditions into account, which may make it necessary to change the itinerary. For more information and alternative tours, please visit tiptop.tours
