Are you ready for an adventure in the heart of the Austrian Alps? The Zillertal awaits you! This gem for hikers of all ages and levels offers a mix of rugged mountains and cozy alpine meadows, all surrounded by well-known trails like the Peter Habeler Runde and the Berliner Höhenweg. Whether you're in the mood for a challenging high-alpine trek or just want to stroll along scenic mountain trails, the Zillertal has it all. And the best part? It's a top destination for families and novice hikers who want an active vacation without too many technical difficulties.

Our special Zillertal package is ideal for families and beginners. You hike on well-maintained T1 and T2 trails, don't get much higher than 2,000 meters, and you stay overnight in comfortable hotels instead of spartan mountain huts. And if that's not enough, your luggage will be transported for you! After a day of adventure, you'll plop down in your own private room and enjoy a well-deserved night's sleep. Doesn't that sound like the perfect blend of adventure and relaxation? Oh, not to mention, you more than earned that beer at the end of the day!
