Diversified summer time

Active holiday
The experience mountain

Hicking, mountainbiking, climbing and many more! There is probably no better place for sporty active holidays in the alps than Galtür. We present to you with pleasure the many possibilities that are offered to you here.

Mountainbiking

Wonderful high-altitude trails, challenging single trails, easy tours for beginners – in Galtür they know what the biker’s heart desires!

Galtür is THE starting point for fantastic bike tours. Every tyre freak will find his or her favourite tour here. From here, you can bike sportily over hill and dale and gain metres in altitude, or connect the most beautiful alpine pastures via forest paths on an e-mountain bike.

But you can also ride a relaxed touring bike and discover the peaceful dream scenery in stages.

Top tips & more

Two of our top tips are the 1850-metre Kopsee loop, which partly leads picturesquely along the banks of the Rosanna, but requires very good physical condition and riding technique. Or the breathtaking Jambach loop, which is moderately difficult and offers views of the peaks. A bike tour to the “Vider Truja”, an adventure park at an altitude of 2,320 metres, also provides spectacular impressions for a great cinematic experience.

Whether you are conquering new horizons or even crossing mountain passes, whether you are exploring the area with children or, as a bike pro, are thinking about enduro routes, Ischgl Ironbike or the E-Bike World Championships, your routes start right on our doorstep – and the latest e-bikes are available to hire from our bike partner Intersport Wolfart .

With the Silvretta Card Premium package, bikers can use numerous cable cars and chair lifts free of charge.

Climbing & mountaineering

You cling to the rope, look upwards. Your fingers are searching for the right grip, whilst your feet have already found a good footing. Another part is conquered!

During climbing tours rushes of adrenaline are guaranteed. Whether you are a beginner who wants to get a taste of climbing for the first time or an acrobat who feels at home in bold rock faces – in Galtür there’s something for every climbing type.

From climbing routes for practice to climbing routes in various levels of difficulty from 2 to 8+. The Alpinarium in Galtür with it’s 24 m high avalanche wall is as attractive for climbers as the climbing gym Jamtalhütte.

In this way mountain excursions are more safe, as local mountain guides know the mountains like the back of their hand.

Running & trail running

Running has many facets! To allow you to pursue your passion for running when on holiday, you’ll find optimal conditions in Paznaun for a sports-filled time in the mountains. In Galtür and its surroundings you can expect challenging alpine running routes as well as (almost) flat terrain for joggers.

For trailrunners Paznaun has not been a secret tipp since a long time. Trail running is becoming increasingly popular and challenges the whole body. In addition to endurance, which is of particular interest to long-distance runners, trail running involves the entire musculoskeletal system. The different surfaces act as a running school. Every step strengthens coordination and reaction.

Watch out!

The altitude and geographic conditions of Paznaun require appropriate acclimatisation, but have a highly positive effect on performance and well-being.
Thus, Paznaun has a wide range of routes to challenge both hobby runners, marathon runners and trailrunning fans.
