It doesn't always have to be skiing. Winter in Tyrol moves and inspires away from the slopes as well. Experience traditional Advent customs and major sporting events up close, stroll through lively Christmas markets and immediately afterwards through quiet, snow-covered landscapes.
Those who want to leave everyday life behind can stroll on prepared winter hiking trails to the rustic inns and alpine pastures around Innsbruck and fortify themselves with local delicacies on the warm stove bench. Magical winter scenes also accompany you along the Bergdoktor hiking trail on the Mieminger Plateau or on the Lüsens panorama trail in a side valley of the Sellraintal.
Sports enthusiasts do not have to go far from the Hotel Edelmanns to the ski areas or other outdoor adventures. For example, you can easily attach a round of cross-country skiing trails to the nearby Olympiaregion Seefeld and Leutasch after you strolled through Innsbruck or v/v.
Eery beauty fills the event calendar for Innsbruck and the surrounding area in the run-up to Christmas. Santa Claus parades, Krampus runs and spectacular Tuifl shows attract young and old alike. The traditional Christmas markets in Innsbruck, Hall and Seefeld stir up the anticipation for Christmas and inspire you to enjoy with all your senses. You can also cultivate the old Tyrolean custom of “Krippeleschauens” in museums, churches and Advent exhibitions. Fixed dates are Mountain New Year's Eve and the Four Hills Tournament for ski jumpers on the Bergisel.
