Stubai High Trail - Horizon Guides

Distance: 50 miles (80 km)
Duration: Eight days
Start/end point: Neustift to Neder
Difficulty: Strenuous

The Stubai High Trail is an Alpine horseshoe classic hopping between traditional mountain huts with different but equally appealing personalities. The weather was terrible when I hiked it – rain, snow, low cloud – yet it was still soul-soaring.

Walking Holidays In The Tyrol Mountains

Paul Bloomfield

If you’re looking for classic Alpine scenery but have already had your fill of the more famous French and Swiss Alps (or just prefer somewhere a little less popular) then I think the Tyrol mountains may be for you. The westernmost finger of Austria, sandwiched between Bavaria and northern Italy, is essentially all mountain – the Tyrol (and its westerly neighbour, little Vorarlberg) is a coherent picture of classic Alpine scenery.
