Book one of our hotel deals and get to know Austria with Esquiades.com. During winter 2021 we have launched this new destination and here we are going to tell you you should visit it.
Many think that Austria is a country to visit in winter as it has so many ski resorts. But this country has so much more to offer!
If you visit Austria in the summer, there are many activities and sightseeing visits you can do in Innsbruck. Our recommendations are:
? Visit the Alpine Zoo.
It is the highest zoo in Europe. It is open throughout the year and the best time to see the animals is in summer.
? Visit the Goldenes Dachl.
Also known as the Golden Roof, it is located in the city centre of Innsbruck, it is one of the most visited tourist spots in the city.
? See the sights of Innsbruck from the “ Stadtturm”.
Climb all the stairs of the City Tower and enjoy a panoramic view of the city.
? See the different coloured houses by the river.
Head to the "Marktplatz" (market square) from where you can take a beautiful photo of the different coloured houses overlooking the river Inn.
? Get to know Innsbruck by bike.
Rent a bike and tour the entire centre in one day. In addition, if you are a cycling fan, there are many routes to do through the mountains by bike.
? Visit a food market.
We recommend you go to the Markthalle which is next to the Marktplatz. It is surrounded by restaurants and cafes and it's the perfect place to shop for Tyrolean delicacies.
These are just some suggestions as there are also many museums (for example the Swarovski Crystal Museum), castles and stadiums that you can visit.
As you can imagine, the main sport of this country in winter is skiing. If you plan to visit Innsbruck and take some time to go skiing, this destination has a lot of ski resorts. It is surrounded by a total of 13 ski resorts! All of them form the Olympia Skiworld resort.
If you book your ski holiday in Innsbruck with Esquiades.com, your Ski Pass includes the Ski plus City Pass. This ski pass not only gives you access to all of these ski resorts, but you will also be able to do tourist visits and have access to spas. Check more info here .
You cannot visit a country and not try the typical dishes. As Innsbruck is located in Tyrol, this area of Austria is known for the Knödel (potato dumplings) which can be prepared with bacon, spinach or a typical Tyrolean cheese called Graukäse.
