The Zirbenweg trail over Innsbruck
Famous, beloved, much-traversed and yet still always an uplifting experience! the Zirbenweg trail over Innsbruck runs from the Patscherkofel mountain station to the Tulfein Alm (Tulfes).

You can take a bus from Tulfes to the Patscherkofel valley station in Igls, from where you can take the cable car to an altitude of 1,965 m in the greatest of comfort. The trail begtins above Schutzhaus Patscherkofel, heading east. The ÖAV Patscherkofel nature trail also starts here.

Botanic Alpine garden and walk along the edge of the forest
Europe's most elevated botanic show garden invites visitors to learn about over 400 different alpine plants first hand. The Zirbenweg trail follows a wide, steep path to the Boscheben chalet, which is somewhat hidden away.

The trail ascends and descends gently without significant changes in altitude as it runs along the edge of the forest, at an altitude of over 2,000 m, to the Tulfein Alm. Throughout the entire walk, you can look down at the Inn valley and enjoy the breathtaking view of the Karwendel mountain chain oppoite. Near Tulfein Alm, there is the Glungezerbahn mountain station. You can take the Glungezerbahn to Tulfes.

Difference in altitude: trail ascends 200 m, trail descends 100 m
Duration of walk: 2.5 hours
Distance: 7 kilometres
