Things to do in Tirol, Austrian Alps: The Best Cross-country Ski Areas
Once known as The Land of the Mountains, the 10,000-square-mile province of Tirol is a wonderland of gushing rivers, lush meadows and rugged peaks. Fantastic hiking trails wind along paths through the Zillertal Alps. Famed resort towns confetti the mountainsides, including Kitzbühel, St. Anton, Ischgl and Seefeld, site of some events in the 1964 and 1976 Winter Games. Compact capital Innsbruck is a medieval gem. The Tirolean identity is strong: Expect to see lederhosen and feathered hats.

This is an update on the closed forum from 2012 regarding getting from Innsbruck Airport to Alpbach without paying a fortune. It is remarkably easy! I’ve just done it with my 10 year old daughter. 1. Get the bus from just outside the door of the airport (stand F) to Innsbruck Haubtbahnhof(Hbf) - the main train station. It’a cheaper if you buy your tickets from the little machine at the bus stop (€2.50). 2.At the station buy tickets from the machine for Brixlegg Bahnhof (€15.80) - loads of trains... 3. Catch the 4074 bus from right outside the door of the station for Inneralpbach (not the one going the other way to Radfeld). Ask for Alpbach Boglerhof - this is the most convenient stopping point within the village. The amount of information available at the stops and on the trains and buses was brilliant. It’s also a good idea to download the “Scotty” app from ÖBB - it gives all train and bus times in a really easy to use format. If you’re concerned about doing this journey don’t be - it really is remarkably easy and will save you paying through the nose for an airport shuttle. Good luck!
