It's absolutely worth driving up here. The first section is a bit steep, then it flattens out, sometimes only 1 to 2 percent. The last section gets steeper again, but there's no traffic. You just have to drive through a shuttle bus and two long tunnels. They're lit, but lights are mandatory.

Hiking every day, whatever the weather – because we love it: "Not just seeing the mountains, but feeling them – that's our goal," says Iris, one of our five hiking guides. Two to three tours of varying difficulty levels through the Zillertal Alps are offered daily. Afterwards, you can relax in the infinity pool with panoramic views of the peaks you've just climbed.
