Mountain hiking and summit tours

During your hiking holiday in Seefeld, you will also find numerous hiking trails for mountain hikes and summit tours. Enjoy the alpine panorama of Tyrol from the summit. For experienced and more demanding hikers, we recommend the Königstour, which is one of the more difficult hikes and, starting from the Seefelder Joch, has the Härmelekopfbahn mountain station as its destination. On a 4.5 hour hike over a distance of 5 kilometers you have to cope with an ascent of 535 meters. The highest point is at 2,364 meters. The view is worth it though!

Hiking events and group hikes

Hiking in the Alps is as much a part of Seefeld as the mountains themselves. There are also numerous hiking events throughout the year. A highlight in spring are the Leutasch mountain spring days followed by the Karwendel march in summer. Our 3-day unicorn march and the Ganghofer Hubertus week always take place at the end of summer and the beginning of autumn.

Guided hike with Stephan

The guided hikes from the Wellness Hotel Schönruh are a special highlight. Our “well-integrated Tyrolean” Stepan will show you his most beautiful favorite hikes. By the way, these easy to moderately difficult tours are free of charge for hotel guests, although fees for buses or trains are not included. These are to be paid by the participants themselves.

One thing is certain – your hiking holiday in Seefeld promises outdoor sports in front of a breathtaking backdrop. In the largest nature reserve in the Western Alps, starting in Scharnitz, you can enjoy your day in one of the most beautiful hiking areas in Tyrol.

Come to Seefeld and enjoy the panorama and the hiking trails!
