A Perfect Ski Vacation in Innsbruck

Austria is perennial favourite of the ski and winter sports fans and Innsbruck is the most established destination for winter sports enthusiasts, anticipating a record number of visitors each year. In the area of the town are the most popular ski resorts and with nearly 2oo ski schools available in the region, Innsbruck offers the opportunity to develop fancy skills for the less experienced skier.


The advent of the FIS Snowboarding World Cup in Solden heralds the introduction of a new ski season in Austria. The annual event attracts thousands of early visitors and marks the beginning of a hectic ski season in Austria. As well as Solden, the resorts of Kitzbuhel and St Anton are amongst the most popular ski destinations in the area. Apres-ski refers to going out, having drinks, dancing, and generally socializing after skiing. The resorts are close to the finest Innsbruck hotels and have a lively night life scene to unwind after a hard day on the slopes. Tirol also offers much for hikers and mountain climbers, with some 710 peaks reaching over 3000 metres in height.

Innsbruck has much to offer itself as a city break destination and is well worth staying in for a few days before going to the slopes. The old town is quite an attraction of its own and the pedestrian streets provide an endless shopping delight for everyone, and the restaurants and cafes are very stylish if somewhat expensive. There are many fine museums in Innsbruck, including the Bell Museum and the Riesenrundgemalde. The most popular is the Schloss Ambras - an art museum of the highest order, housing a portrait with about 300 portraits from the 15th to 19th century.

Hotel Innsbruck provide basic facilities and comfortable stay with several value additions to leave an indelible holiday experience of your life.
