Innsbruck in WinterIt’s no wonder Innsbruck is so popular by skiers and snowboarders alike: it’s mountain ski areas are easily accessible by a dramatic cable car ride from near the city centre and provide a stunning backdrop to a memorable holiday.

The city has hosted the Winter Olympics twice and is therefore well-equipped to provide customers with a memorable winter break. As well as excellent skiing and snowboarding, visitors can enjoy scenic hikes, a visit to the alpine zoo and even thrilling bobsleigh rides on the original Olympic track.

Innsbruck’s hearty cuisine is perfectly suited to the colder months. From warming bowls of beef soup and generously-filled bacon or spinach dumplings to irresistible apple strudel, the city’s Austrian cuisine provides the perfect fuel after a day on the slopes.

Innsbruck in SummerWith its charming cobbled streets, beautiful churches and palaces, lively boulevards, bustling squares and scenic parks, Innsbruck also has much to offer customers looking for a relaxed summer city break.

Popular landmarks include the Goldenes Dachl (Golden Roof) building as well as the magnificent Bergiselschanze ski jump, where customers can enjoy a meal with stunning mountain views.

Summer events such as the New Orleans Festival and Tiroler Abend, which celebrates traditional Tyrolean culture, provide great experiences during the warmer months, and Sound City is a lively music festival with international DJs taking over the downtown area.
