Seefeld in Tirol – The most beautiful excursion destinations in the town and region

Seefeld as a town and region

The town of Seefeld is located on a sunny plateau at an altitude of 1,200 m, framed by mountains and opening to the south. The region consists of five idyllic villages – Seefeld, Leutasch, Mösern, Reith, and Scharnitz – each offering its own unique stories and experiences. Between mountains and valleys, forests and meadows, vacationers will find an extraordinary variety of natural experiences. Thanks to this location, Seefeld is ideal for both relaxing walks around the town and sporting activities such as hiking, cycling, or skiing. The plateau is also easily accessible and offers numerous opportunities for day trips.

Alpenpark Resort Seefeld

As an ideal starting point for activities in Seefeld, we recommend the Alpenpark Resort, a 4-star superior hotel with a central location. The hotel features a family-friendly spa area with a "Water Splash World" and a giant slide, while adults can relax in a separate spa. Children are looked after in Filo's Kids Club, which covers over 1,000 m²; the hotel mascot, "Filo," ensures adventure, games, and fun. Thanks to the pampering board with a rich breakfast, juice bar, multi-course dinner menu, and baby and children's buffets, gourmets of all ages are well catered for. The wellness and vitality oasis, as well as the proximity to hiking trails and attractions, make the resort the ideal base for families.

Seekirchl (Holy Cross Church)

The SeekirchlThe Holy Cross Church, also known as the Church of the Holy Cross, is Seefeld's famous landmark. It houses an old cross whose history dates back to 1628. The Baroque chapel was originally built in the artificially created Kreuzsee, which was drained in 1808. Its construction dates back to a vow made by Archduke Leopold V, who was inspired by the miraculous power of the cross to build a chapel; it was consecrated in 1666. Its octagonal floor plan with a column-free dome and bell tower is remarkable, a rare architectural example in Tyrol.

Rosshütte – Mountain Railway & Adventure World

The Rosshütte cable cars transport visitors quickly to the high mountains and reveal an impressive mountain landscape. From the valley station, the funicular and Jochbahn cable car take them up to the Seefelder Joch (2,064 m); in summer, a panoramic path continues from there to the Seefelder Spitze. In the warmer months, a large adventure playground with a mining theme awaits at the middle station, where children can climb, slide, and playfully learn about the history of mining. In winter, the area transforms into a popular ski resort with slopes, a toboggan run, and a ski school. Restaurants with sun terraces, a panoramic platform, and a wide range of activities for families make the Rosshütte an attractive destination year-round.

Leutasch Ghost Gorge

The Leutasch Ghost Gorge has been delighting visitors since 2023 with a newly designed themed trail. Visitors hike four loops of varying lengths through the spectacular Leutascher Ache gorge, with stories, games, and information panels enhancing their nature experiences. The large gorge loop runs 3.2 km over footbridges and bridges, while the barrier-free small loop is 500 m long. A special highlight is the waterfall trail near Mittenwald, which leads to a 23 m high waterfall; a small entrance fee applies. The gorge is open from April to the end of October; travel by bus is recommended. The trail is not suitable for strollers and dogs (except for the small loop), and sturdy footwear and a head for heights are required.

Finally: Discover Innsbruck

Seefeld is just a stone's throw away from Innsbruck – a trip to the Tyrolean capital is always worthwhile.

In the Alpine Zoo Innsbruck At an altitude of 750 meters, around 2,000 animals from about 150 alpine species live; no other zoo displays such a comprehensive collection of alpine fauna. The zoo is the highest themed zoo in Europe and is open year-round; some animals hibernate, but most are active even in winter.

The Nordkette cable car takes you from the city centre to the “Top of Innsbruck“ – the Hafelekar – and enjoys a 360-degree panoramic view of the city and the Karwendel Nature Park. The modern Hungerburg Railway takes visitors from the Old Town to Hungerburg in eight minutes and stops at Alpine Zoo.

Also worth seeing are the colorful Houses on the Inn – the Mariahilfzeile – which can best be photographed from the Inn Bridge or the market square, as well as the Golden Roof, a bay window with 2,657 gilded copper plates from 1500, which has become a symbol of Innsbruck. In addition to these highlights, Innsbruck also offers the Innsbruck Court Garden, City Tower, the Hofburg, Maria-Theresia-Straße and many museums and much more – perfect additions to a stay in Seefeld.
