Mountain variety around your active hotel in Austria
Our Stubai is a dream destination for anyone who loves the mountains. And the action extends far beyond hiking and biking. Whether it’s rock climbing, running on varied trails, or paragliding from the Kreuzjoch pass: there’s a new adventure to enjoy every day in the area around your active hotel in Austria.
Climbing in Stubai
Climbing in the Stubaital valley means rock, ice, and mountain air in one of Austria’s most exciting mountain regions. Well-secured multi-pitch routes await you, as do challenging tours for experienced Alpine climbers in the Kalkkögel and Pinnistal valley areas.
Sport climbing enthusiasts will find themselves in seventh heaven in the secured climbing areas, and the Fulpmes climbing hall offers a real challenge, whatever the weather. In addition, Adventure Park Fulpmes – home to Tyrol’s largest high ropes course – offers 130 challenges across 13 courses, suitable for beginners and pros alike.
In winter, the Stubaital valley transforms into an ice-climbing paradise. The ice falls in the Pinnistal and Unterbergtal valleys are among the most important ice climbing routes in Austria. If you’re keen to try ice climbing for the first time, the best place to start is at the ice climbing tower on the Stubai Glacier, accompanied by a mountain guide.
Trail running
Running enthusiasts can look forward to a top-class open-air workout on their active holiday in Austria. In the area surrounding the Alphof, you’ll find a varied selection of routes, ranging from flat paths that lead through the entire valley to challenging high-altitude running routes offering awe-inspiring views. The backdrop to your runs: our high-Alpine landscape with its rugged rocky peaks and ice giants, mountain lakes, waterfalls, and more.
Ambitious trail runners can also look forward to 2 special highlights: the Stubai Ultratrail in Neustift in late June/early July, and the Kalkkögeltrail in Telfes in September.
Swimming
Need a little refreshment? The Stubai Super Card gives you free admission to the StuBay Water Park and the Miederer Schwimmbad’l pool. If you’re feeling brave, why not take the plunge into one of our many mountain lakes?
Paragliding
The Stubaital valley is regarded by paragliders as one of the best flying areas in Tyrol. At the Kreuzjoch pass in Schlick 2000, you can look forward to perfect thermals and an ideal launch site with direct access via cable car. You glide 1,200m back down to Fulpmes, over rugged peaks, mountain lakes, and the sprawling Stubaital valley. An experienced pilot will be by your side for your tandem flight: after a few steps’ run-up, you take off gently, and that feeling of freedom immediately takes hold.
