The home mountain 
for children.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

The natural environment is by far the best playground.

Innsbruck's home mountain is a summer paradise for the whole family: There are no fewer than 86 attractive walking trails and 14 mountain pastures to explore, plus many welcome breaks.

The children can let off steam at playgrounds by the valley and mountain stations. And now there are two special offers for young and old: on Kofele's walking tour quiz you get to answer questions at 13 stations on the way to the summit and then win a nice surprise.

In addition, in order to create a varied walking adventure, we have waymarked some particularly family-friendly trails - with the help of a deer, a fox, an owl and a stone pine.

We hope you have a lot of fun on our home mountain.
