Travel Guide to Innsbruck Austria

Innsbruck Hauptbahnhof, the most important railway station of Innsbruck and Tyrol, is one of the busiest railway stations in Austria. It is served by the Lower Inn Valley line to Germany and eastern Austria, the Arlberg line to the west and the Brenner line, which connects northern Italy with southern Germany via the Brenner pass. Since December 2007 suburban services have been operated as the Innsbruck S-Bahn.

Innsbruck lies in the wide Inn Valley at the intersection of two important traffic routes between Germany and Italy and between Vienna and Switzerland. One of Austria's most popular year-round vacation destinations, Innsbruck has retained its medieval Old Town with its narrow, twisting streets and tall houses in Late Gothic style. Most of its popular attractions are clustered close to the Old Town, whose charming narrow streets provide tourists plenty of things to see and do.

Beware of:Thugs and Pick Pockets

Innsbruck has everything a lively, vibrant city needs, and yet it is just a ten-minute journey into the high mountains which dominate the skyline.

Dont Miss : Our Next Review

We used the Nordkettenbahnen from the congress station to go up to the top of Hafelekar range.
It was convenient and easy to use this service and gave us access to amazing, breathtaking views. We visited at the end of ski season and it was still quite busy. Difficult for me as I get a little claustrophobic so have no idea how bad it would be in peak season, however it was manageable and completely worth it. You can get out at each stop it you need to.The lift offers access to the alpen zoo and other sites to see.
Got one free trip to the top using the Innsbruck card.

Do you only have one day? This is still enough to experience the main hotspots in Innsbruck. First pick up an Innsbruck Card and then let the exciting adventures in the Capital of the Alps begin. The following highlights shouldn’t be missed: 

• Explore the old town and Maria Theresien Street: the Golden Roof, Kaufhaus Tyrol shopping centre, the          Imperial Gardens, etc.

• City Tower (viewpoint)

• The Imperial Palace & Court Church

• Lunch on the Nordkette mountain range

• Alpine Zoo visit on the way back into town

Tip: The Innsbruck Card is valid for 24 hours. If it’s activated at 10 am, it can be used until 10 am on the following day. Return trips are free of charge on included forms of public transport and on the “Sightseer” – Innsbruck’s hop-on hop-off bus.
