Reach a 2,334-metre Alpine summit straight from Innsbruck's city centre with three connected cable cars and around 30 minutes of climbing views with you're entry tickets. The Nordkette journey is one of the most remarkable in the Alps, beginning underground in the Old Town aboard the Hungerburgbahn. From Hungerburg, the Seegrubenbahn cable car sweeps you up the mountain face to the Seegrube at 1,905 metres, where a sun terrace and restaurant look out over the whole city. The final Hafelekarbahn then lifts you to the ridge of the Karwendel — Austria's largest nature park — where a short summit path ends at the Hafelekarspitze, 2,334 metres: the Top of Innsbruck. The reward is a genuine 360° panorama: Innsbruck and the Inn Valley a vertical mile below on one side, the wild limestone ranges of the Karwendel stretching away on the other. Walk the ridge, spot ibex on the slopes, linger over coffee at the summit restaurant, or time your descent for golden light over the rooftops.
