Hiking in Zillertal
Lush meadows, mountain streams with crystal-clear water pure enough to drink, rustic mountain huts - all leave their stamp on the glorious hill country of Zillertal. Over 1,000 kilometers of clearly marked paths are there just waiting to be hiked. There are numerous means to reach the hiking trails at higher elevations, aside from on foot. You can drive your car up the Zillertal High Road, for example, or perhaps ride one of our region's ten cable cars, providing your whole family with direct access to a truly compelling mountain word. Countless mountain huts offer original Zillertal dishes, treating their guests to an array of homemade delights.
