Summer in Tyrol is like a favourite picture book
that, as a child, you wanted to look at again and
again. Every page enthrals and captivates. Every
time you look, you discover something new, details
that had previously been hidden to the eye, a
mesmerising diversity that never ceased to amaze.
And the Imst Holiday Region, likewise, with its
richness of treasures, its pictures and its stories, is
sure to capture your imagination to the full.

OUR TIP FOR A MEMORABLE DAY
Visit the SunOrama terrace and Adlerhorst viewing point, then hike
the Three-Hut Tour (Muttekopfhütte, Latschenhütte, Untermarkter
Alm). If you want, you can ascend to the Alpjoch at 2,100 metres
using the two-seater chairlift from the Hoch-Imst bottom station,
and instead of walking all the way back, whiz down on the Alpine
Coaster. Duration: approx. 4 – 6 hours.

Adlerhorst is the German word for ‘eyrie’, that is the nest of an eagle.
The viewing platform built on the Drischlsteig track (part of the Eagle’s
Way long-distance walking trail), which is accessed via a 200-metre
walking path directly from the top station of the Alpjoch chairlift, offers breathtaking views of the Muttekopf nature protection area.
The SunOrama at the top station of the Alpjochbahn chairlift offers spectacular views, pleasant seating areas for enjoyable picnics,
comfortable sun loungers – and a location 2,100 metres above sea
level to boot! And it can be easily accessed by chairlift.

Here in the Imst Holiday Region, there are countless tracks and trails
and innumerable mountain goals. All that hiking and mountain climbing enthusiasts have to do is choose the huts they want to visit or the
peaks they want to tackle.
SUGGESTIONS FOR HIKES
Hahntennjoch is a mountain pass route that links the Upper Inn Valley with the Tyrolean
Lechtal Valley. Running between Imst and Elmen, the 29 km-long scenic road is particularly
popular with motor bikers. The summit of the pass, located at an altitude of 1,894 m, marks
the border between the two municipalities of Imst and Pfafflar and, at the same time, between
the districts of Imst and Reutte. The narrow, winding road, which includes gradients of up to
18.9%, is closed to caravans and vehicles over 14 tons. The road is closed to all traffic during
the winter months (November to April). From the Hahntennjoch pass you can hike over the Steinjöchl col to the Anhalter Hütte mountain hut (2,042 m) in around 1 ½ hours, or over the Scharnitzsattel saddle (2,441 m) to the Muttekopfhütte mountain hut (1,934 m) in around 3 hours.

ORIENTEERING
Orienteering is a sport that involves hiking
and/or running combined with mental exercise. Using a map (and compass) participants
have to find specific points in the forest. The
location of the control points are marked on
the map (small circles with numbers or letters). The objective is to find all the points in
the correct order and, under competition conditions, to do so as quickly as possible, The
map offers various different routes (blue, red and black) and, when
time is irrelevant, participants can tackle the sport at their own pace.

Summer, sunshine and fun, fun, fun every day! Those
are the magic ingredients for an interesting, enjoyable

offer a fun-filled, fascinating experience for children
and adults alike and, at the same time, they help children appreciate the value of nature. On a family rafting
tour over foaming waves everyone’s ‘in the same boat’,
while on a horseback trek happy hearts beat as one in

Here in the Imst Holiday Region it’s almost impossible
to look at the surroundings without developing a deep
affinity for nature and its wonders. And because it’s important to protect and preserve what you love, the people who live here and spend their holidays here treat the
beauties of nature with care and respect. Intact Alpine
landscapes and a rich variety of flora and fauna offer the
perfect setting in which to unwind, relax and recharge
your batteries. When the sun’s shining on your face and
your feet are dangling in the cool water of a mountain
stream, then you’ll feel it – this is your summer!

EARTH PYRAMIDS
NATURE

NATURE
The earth pyramids or ‘towers’ of sedimentary rock are very rare in Tyrol. In the Waldertal valley between Roppen and Arzl you can marvel
at these fascinating ‘wonders of nature’, ideally during a walk round
the circular trail (approx. 1 ½ hours).
SINNESBRUNN – A NATURAL BEAUTY SPOT
This area of natural beauty takes its name from the little pilgrimage
chapel and from the healing spring water. Hidden in this hilly, undulating terrain, with a light sprinkling of spruce trees, are countless little
moors created during the ice age. Far away from the traffic in the valley
or any background noise, this is a place where you can savour nature
and serene tranquillity.
© Imst Tourismus
ROSENGARTENSCHLUCHT GORGE
Just a short walk away from the town centre, you’ll find one of Tyrol’s
most stunning biotopes – the Rosengartenschlucht gorge.
The Schinderbach stream winds its way for 1 ½ km from the ‘blue grotto’ through the bedrock of Imst’s low mountain terraces to St. John’s
church (elevation difference 250 m). For geologists the gorge provides
an insight into millions of years of the earth’s history, but having said
that, you don’t have to be a geological expert to marvel at the beauty of
the gorge with its abundance of flora and fascinating stones.
MILSER AU
The aim of the Milser Au revitalisation project is to preserve the ecosystem of the grey alder alluvial forest on a long-term basis, and to
breathe new life into the natural habitat in order to prevent any further
ecological deterioration of the gallery forest. The revitalisation project,
together with the construction of near-natural river control structures,
has resulted in the creation of flood retention spaces and valuable habitats for rare animal and plant species.
Guided nature tours for group on request.

The Gurgltal valley is not only a delightful place for humans to live,
but it’s also home to countless rare species of flora and fauna. In order
to provide visitors with an insight into this little known aspect of the
valley, a varied programme of guided nature tours is on offer together
with experts from a wide range of fields.
Located at the entrance to the Gurgltal valley, this is one of the most
gorgeous spots in Tyrol, a secluded area of natural beauty, perfect for
lingering and relaxing. With the former ‘Sigmundsburg’ hunting lodge
protruding out of the water, the lake offers a spectacular photo motif.
The romantic ambience is perfect for long walks and hikes. Those who
prefer to take it easier can explore the lake on a pedal boat.

From an earth-history perspective, the Imst Holiday Region exhibits

sediment are like an ‘open book’ for geologists, a book that tells the
story of the earth’s development. And the best bit about it? Even for
the untrained eye, the geology of the area is ‘clearly visible’! All you
need to do to make sense of what you see, is to join in one of the highly
informative guided geology hikes together with an expert in the field.

Of the town’s more than 40 fountains, 18 of the most historically significant ones have been meticulously renovated. Today they serve
as decorative features in the town’s landscape, but in earlier times they
had a vital economic and social function. Almost no houses had water
pipes, so local inhabitants fetched the indispensable elixir of life from
the nearest fountain for cooking and for washing – which is why there
is a little basin beside almost every fountain in which even the potatoes
were washed. The large basins served as watering stops for the cattle. All
the fountains naturally provide clean, fresh drinking water.

In earlier times the Gurgltal valley was one of the most important
mining areas in Tyrol. The nine authentically reproduced buildings
in the ‘Knappenwelt Gurgltal’ mining village in Tarrenz provide an
intriguing world of exploration and discovery. Immerse yourself in
the fascination of the world of mining and embark on a journey back
in time! In addition, you can pay a visit to the permanent exhibition
entitled ‘The Healer from Gurgltal’ which draws you into the realm
of myths and legends that surrounds a woman who lived and carried
out her ‘healing’ in the valley some 400 years ago. You should plan
in around 1 ½ hours for the museum. Special children’s afternoons,
children’s birthdays and night-time guided tours for groups can be arranged on request.

Several years ago the 200-year-old brewery was meticulously modernised and the 700-year-old castle was given a new lease of life.
In the castle the debris that had amassed over the centuries was eliminated and the old plasterwork was removed to reveal walls that were
even older. The rooms were restored to their original functions, along
with the countless historical corridors, some of which served as secret passageways! Thus a tour through the castle evolved, that takes
visitors from up above the brewery down to the deepest vaults, cellars
and passageways. Today the brewery and the castle offer a fascinating
experience and a close insight into the world of brewing from its very
beginnings to the present day.

FASNACHTHAUS CARNIVAL MUSEUM –
NASSEREITH
© Archiv Fasnachtshaus Nassereith
In 2008, human remains of a
woman who lived at the time of
the Thirty Years’ War (1618 - 1648)
were found in the forest of Strad, a
hamlet belonging to Tarrenz. The
cause of death, as well as the identity of the 30 - 40 year-old woman,
still remain a mystery. Due to the numerous artefacts also found, it can
be assumed that she was somebody experienced in the art of healing.
The newly created museum in the Knappenwelt Gurgltal offers visitors
an insight into life in the Gurgltal region in the 17th century and, in particular, into the work of the mysterious healer. www.knappenwelt.at
The inhabitants of the village of Nassereith celebrate the ‘Fasnacht’
carnival every three years. At the end of the Fasnacht celebration,
after the church bells have summoned to prayer in the evening, the
masks disappear for a further three years. If you don’t want to wait
that long, then you can see some of them in the ‘Fasnachtshaus’ carnival museum in Nassereith. Here the colourful world of ‘Schellerlaufen’ and co. is on the agenda every Friday. Visitors can marvel at
the vibrantly coloured costumes, the elaborate wooden masks created
by renowned local artists and the fascinating ancient traditions. Modern film technology brings this rich and lively custom to life, almost
giving visitors the feeling of actually being there in the thick of it all.
In September 2012 the ‘Nassereither Schellerlaufen’ was added to the
UNESCO list of ‘Intangible Cultural Heritage’.
‘HAUS DER FASNACHT’
CARNIVAL MUSEUM
This museum makes use of state-of-the-art technology to present an authentic, indeed archaic custom in all its richness, a tradition which, in
2012, was added to the UNESCO list of ‘Intangible Cultural Heritage’.
Film excerpts from the early 1930s to the present day offer visitors a
clear insight into the movements, the primal power, the rhythms and
the mysteries of the masked parade

AUTUMN IN THE ALPS
A time of festivals, traditions and customs ... Autumn in the Imst Holiday Region offers a spectacle for all the senses. Mother Nature paints
the landscape with vivid hues. The Indian summer offers skies of deepest
blue. And the views of the mountain peaks and pastures are crystal clear.
No wonder that this season has always inspired the inhabitants of the
Imst Holiday Region to rejoice, to organise festivals and celebrate their
customs and traditions. One of the most enjoyable autumn folk festivals
is the ‘Schafschied’ in Tarrenz, when the return of the sheep from the
Alpine pastures is celebrated in the village. The annual driving down of
the sheep from the Hinterberg Alm is a spectacle not to be missed. At the
Eagle Festival in Hoch-Imst everything ‘circles’ around the theme of eagles. Further information can be found in the Alpine Autumn brochure.
SCHAFER ‘SHEEP’ WEEKS,
21.08–23.10.2016

In keeping with the time of year when all the livestock return back to
the valley from the high mountain pastures, many of the local restaurants and inns offer special events and culinary specialities.
