Innsbruck attractions

Karwendel Alpine Park (Alpenpark Karwendel) sprawls over 270 square miles (700 square kilometers), making it the largest nature park in Austria. The park is made up of 11 protected areas, characterized by wild rivers, ancient forests, and rugged peaks, which visitors can experience on hikes and tours.

With the mountains always in the backdrop, Innsbruck Old Town (Altstadt) is a lively, picturesque part of town, which has history, too. Emperor Maximilian I housed his Imperial court here in the 15th century, leaving a legacy of landmarks including the famous copper-tiled Golden Roof. This jumble of cobbled streets beside the River Inn is crammed with Tyrolean boutiques, cafés, and souvenir shops.
