It’s literally impossible to get to Innsbruck without passing through The Alps—the city is tucked right into them, and the huge, jagged mountains rise up from around the city like a towering, imposing wall of breathtaking natural beauty. There’s a reason, after all, that Innsbruck is sometimes called the Capital of the Alps. Visitors to Innsbruck would be absolutely remiss if they went their entire visit without getting up into the mountains. Year round, there are outdoor activities for people of all ages and abilities, from hiking and mountain biking in the summer to skiing in the winter, with plenty of cable cars and funicular options for those who are less mobile but still want to feel that fresh mountain air.
