Hiking Fun in Zillertal
Over 1,000 km of hiking trails on 3 different levels await you in Zillertal, one of the most popular hiking destinations anywhere.
There are comfortable themed walks and nature trails on the valley floor, delightful alpine hikes from chalet to chalet, and adventurous tours around Zillertal's summits at over 3000 km above sea level. 11 mountain railways are in operation in the summer and bring you comfortably to the best starting points for some unforgettable hikes. They also make it easier for families to access the mountains.
A tip from us – the Zillertal Active Card includes a daily mountain and valley ride on the Zillertal summer mountain railways.
When hiking from chalet to chalet through the Zillertal Alps, the journey is not just about conquering the highest peak or the highest altitude reached, but about making the best stops. Over 150 rustic chalets, alpine guest houses and snack stations offer a whole range of culinary treats.
Innkeepers await you with original Zillertal specialties or a hearty "Jause" plate of cold meats and Zillertal hay milk cheeses, a choice brandy distilled using local fruits as well as the odd story to tell.
