Hiking in the Pitztal Glacier hiking area
Enjoy special hiking holidays in the Tyrol! A unique array or hiking opportunities await you by the Pitztal Glacier: go and see the glacial caves with a local mountain guide, embark on a glacier ice-safari including abseiling in a crack in the glacier or hike from the Pitz-Panoramabahn (3,440m) along the “Gletschersteig” and down to the Taschachhaus – these are really special experiences to enjoy on your hiking holiday in the Austrian Alps! Going to the Wildspitze, the highest mountain in Tyrol is also possible thanks to the Pitzexpress which takes you up to 3,440m in no time at all. An icy treat for all passionate hikers! Together, the Pitztal Glacier hiking area and the Kaunertal Glacier now form the Glacier park.
