Stubai Valley

The Stubai Valley is one of the most popular winter and summer holiday destinations in Tyrol. The reasons are manifold, with the best ones probably the excellent skiing and hiking opportunities on Innsbruck’s front porch. Mieders, the first village with a ski lift as you enter the valley, is reached within 20 minutes from leaving the provincial capital. From there, it only gets better, with two more ski resorts before you reach the big one, the Stubai Glacier, after about 28 kilometres. The Stubai Alps boast 80 glaciers and 109 peaks of over 3.000 metres.But the valley doesn’t rely on snow only to keep its guests busy and entertained. The summer activities are even more varied, ranging from hiking and summer tobogganing to family fun in adventure play parks.
