Our region defines the concept of a "summer retreat"!

Summer vacation in the Zillertal

It is very important to tell you that you don’t need Disney Land for a successful summer vacation. If you are able to walk and if you are successful in making full use of your senses, then you will find fulfillment that can hardly be found anywhere else in the world.

Of course, you have to go about it properly: the winner is not the one who reaches the summit or the hut in the shortest amount of time but the one that pauses and takes it all in. Take a deep breath and smell the aroma of the damp spruce forests, kneel down by the countless water sources in the prehistoric rock, take a taste of the watercress that grows there, and drink the water – this is what the mountain shares with you.

Enjoy the feeling of being tired and sweaty and brave the wind, the heat, and the cold. It’s beautiful to feel all of these things and know that you are truly alive. We are a part of nature and once again will return to it.

Recreation opportunities around the Alpenchalet

Everything your heart desires – leisurely walks, mountain biking, hiking, Nordic walking, looking for mushrooms, and picking berries – is possible when staying at Alpenchalet Zillertal. Simply open the door and head out in any direction. Just make sure you can find your way back.

There is a good reason why the Zillertal has the reputation of being the most active in the world.

Hiking (over 200 km of marked hiking paths), climbing, via ferrata routes and high ropes gardens, swimming in pools and mountain lakes, canyoning, paragliding, hang gliding, golfing, horseback riding and horse-drawn carriage rides, 4 sand tennis course, squash, mini golf...............................

You can enjoy all these activities after more or less short travel times. All possibilities are open to you. But don’t forget that it may be more valuable to experience and enjoy beautiful impressions than to focus only on sports during your vacation.
