Summer in the Mountains of Tirol Ambassador for Summer in the Mountains On the bike A total of 5,600 kms of marked trails await the most passionate mountain bikers in Tirol. The Bike Trail Tirol forms the heart of this, with just under 1,000 km and almost 27,000 metres in elevation gain, it is the longest continuous mountain bike circuit in the Alps and runs across the region in 32 stages. www.tyrol.com/mountainbiking 1 2 3 1 | Lisi Osl from Kirchberg No. 1 of the World MTB rankings & winner of Austria CUP in Mountain Biking 4 3 | Elmar Huter from Wenns in the Pitztal Valley Runs the child-friendly family farm Sennhof Huter with his wife “I love being in the mountains. This is where I can take a step back and breathe again. The diversity of the Alps never fails to inspire me – around every corner a new landscape is discovered, from waterfalls, rock faces to mountain lakes. It’s all truly fascinating and I love showing it to my guests.” “One of the amazing highlights of my job is being able to be out in the open air. I get around quite a lot, but if I can challenge the Kitzbüheler Alps on my bike, that’s when my heart races! But for me it’s the whole package that counts: the traditions, the Alpine pastures, the cows, the herdsmen and the dairy maids, who are always so open and friendly.” 4 | Benny Parth from Ischgl Austria’s youngest “Toque” awarded chef cooks at home in the Stüva restaurant 2 | Gregor Schlierenzauer from the Stubai Valley Olympic Gold medal winner in Ski Jumping “My walks through the mountains not only provide the ideal opportunity to unwind, but I often return to the valley with all sorts of culinary treasures. It’s amazing how many wild herbs you can find in our mountains, which for an award-winning chef is invaluable.” “For me summer in the Tirolean mountains is a time to relax and re-energise. Above all, it’s getting out and about amidst open and untouched nature.” On the rock face In the Climbers Paradise of Tirol, the rock-climbing opportunities are endless, with over 5,000 extreme routes, 3,000 medium routes and 1,500 bouldering routes await climbing enthusiasts. In addition Via Ferratas and high rope courses can be found across the region. www.tyrol.com/climbing In the water Tirol’s fast flowing streams and rivers guarantee plenty of fun and action – from white-water rafting against the current, to kayaking downstream and canyoning down deep cliff faces. www.tyrol.com/other-sports With power Whether it’s the Three Countries Giro Tour, the Arlberg Giro Tour, Ötztaler Bike Marathon, Tannheimer Bike Marathon, the Dolomites Cycle Race, Zillertal Bike Challenge, the Ischgl Ironbike, Karwendel Hike, the Glacier Marathon or the Red Bull Dolomitenmann – there are countless possibilities for athletes, sportsmen and women to measure their strength and test their ability to the limit. www.tyrol.com/events In the mountains Majestically the Eagle spreads its wings over Tirol and accompanies many leisure walkers and serious hikers on 33 stages across the region.
