Innsbruck Travel Forum

Hi everyone,

I'm planning to have a day skiing trip in Stubaier-Gletscher in Sept and I saw that there is a ski package on http://www.stubaier-gletscher.com/

Super-Skipackage(EUR 54,00):
One day skiing incl.return bus transfer from Innsbruck, day pass on the Stubai Glacier, on-site rental of winter sports equipment. EUR 54,00

Did anyone try this before? Is it worth to join or is cheaper if I do it myself.

by the way, did anyone have the bus schedule between Innsbruck and Mutterberg? so that I can better arrange my time in Innsbruck.

Thanks in advance!
Tina :D

HI, I have posted this question earlier on Austria forum, Taking the advise of another VT member,It is perhaps better to post it here instead.

My family and I are taking train from Innsbruck to Bavaria region passing Mittenwald to Garmisch-P. I would like to find out if I can buy Bayern ticket in Innsbruck instead of getting down at Mittenwald. Does anyone know whether there is a DB-ticket automat/DB-ticket counter at Innsbruck Hauptbahnhof?

Warm regards

Hi there,

I may go to Innsbruck in October and would like to hike but I'm not sure if I can do it during the time. Could anyone give me some advice?

If the hiking service isn't avialable, what activity I should do? I'd like to appreciate the nature, not only the city.

And from Cesky Krumlov, how can I go to the city?

Thank you in advance.

Hi all,

We will be traveling to Innsbruck and will spend 2 nights there.. we are planning to visit the major city attractions and we learnt that the innsbruck card offers free museum entry ++ . However, the card is quite expensive and the local daily transportation is pretty reasonable. Do you think the innsbruck card is useful if we are planning on visiting these sites?.. I mean is the card valid for these places and which card should I buy(if any at all) 1 day or 2 days??

I will be visiting : The Golden Room, Triumphal Arch, St James Cathedral, St. Jacob Cathedral, Stadturm, Ambrass CAstle, Swarovski Crystal World(may be), Bergisel Ski Jump(just for the view)

I am going to stay in Art Binders Hotel in Dr.-Glatz-Strasse 20, Innsbruck, AT 6020. The hotel is about 2 km from old innsbruck and 1.5 km fom town center
Please advise if I should get an innsbruck card!!

Thanks

Dear All,

I'll be in Innsbruck with my mates for 3 days. We'd want to move out of the city for a day tour, we'll have our own car. What would you suggest ?

Very kind of you.

Hi everyone

Thanks

Hello,

I just read an info about a tram (or train?) line from Innsbruck -Stubai called STB and wonder
is it worthwhile for a day trip. I'd like to see some beautiful green countryside and may take
a little walk outside the city.

Anyone has a web site about Stubai? and Is eurailpass valid on this line?

Thank you very much!

Hi there. Found these forums by accident but what I have read has been very helpful. Hubby is treating me to a few nights in Austria for my 50th birthday (lucky me!!).

If you don't mind, could I ask a few questions. We are flying in to Munich on a Sunday at the end of April at around lunchtime and then going to see if we can get on the right train to arrive in Innsbruck. Have booked room at Hotel Olberg Hohenstrasse 52 6020 Innsbruck. Have no idea how far away from Innsbruck centre it is at all. Presume taxi would be the answer?? Is public transport easy to use bearing in mind neither of us speak German! May even consider hiring a car for a day as would like to have a look around whilst we are there.

Any advice as to where to eat and also where to avoid (No dietry conditions to worry about!)??

Lastly probably the most difficult question of all what to pack. I assume that if we decide to have a trip up into the mountains, it might be sunny and warm down in the town but still cold up the top?? So I presume a bit of both.

Sorry to have rambled on a bit. Thanks in anticipation of any replies.

Hello!
I'm going to visit Euro 2008 as a volunteer, so I need a room in Innsbruck approximatly for a month. I can't find any hostels (everything is booked allready). Can you help me with good advice, please?
Thank you in advance.

Hi there,

I'm looking to do a hiking trip to Innsbruck, but am having trouble determining exactly when spring begins there. If I took to the trails the first week of May, would that be too soon? (Don't want to worry about trail closure bc of snow, and would love some wildflowers too!)

Thanks for your advice,
Andi in London

Will it be possible - well, in fact will it be easy to get accomodation during this time - or do some hotels close for a week or so after the New Year.
Please let me know (I may be looking for a single for myself.

I am planning on bringing a group to Innsbruck in late February. Does anyone know of a great sleigh ride near Innsbruck offered by a company that includes a dinner at a cozy Tyrolean Inn? I need to get a quote for 15 to 20 adults.
Thanks!

I'll be in Innsbruck (city) for Christmas Market late November, early December. Will there much snow in town? What will the temperatures be like?

Thanks you...taveller@aol.com

Hi,
I will be visiting Innsbruck in February. Can anyone tell me how much snow to expect during this time?

Thanks.

I am going to be in innsbruck next month for 1 week, and will have one of those days free. Is it possible to take a train to bolzano in italy to see "otzi", and come back again as a day trip?.

Hi there
We will be in Innsbruck for 2 -3 days in October, but we are concerned about getting around without having to pay too much. We are from south Africa and dont have good transport systems in our country so riding trains and having to change trains at certain points is very scary for us. Also our exchange rate is R10 = 1 Euro, so as you can see a holiday works out very expensive for us so we have to stick to a budget and still have a good time. Any advice would be appreciated please.
Thanks

Hi all, does anyone know if it is possible to get a train (or bus) to Garmisch-Partenkirchen? thanks:-)

We are visiting Innsbruck in mid-July, arriving by train around lunchtime and hoping to head straight up into the mountains, trekking. We would like to leave our non-trekking luggage somewhere secure for a week or so until our return. Does anyone know of a left luggage depot where we could do this, or a hotel which would allow us to leave our stuff there (providing that we stayed a night or two on our return)? Thanks, Kevin.

My mate and I will be in Innsbruck on June 4th (monday) and would like to do the Sommerbob (bobsledding) but that early in the summer you need a group (or be there on a day where there will be groups.) Thus far there are no groups on that day, so I'm trying to put one together. You need 16 people, so as of now I need 14 more.

Just curious if anyone will be there on the 4th of June and wants to do a little Sommerbobbing...

Thanks,

Hello,
I'm unable to find the price of a train from Innsbruck to Zurich online (international European prices are often hard to find!). Does anyone have experience with the cost of this route?

We're looking for the cheaper 2nd class trains.

Even better, if someone knows a website that will show you the prices (not just the timetables, which I can get), that would be perfect!

Hi All,

My brother and I will be staying in Jenbach between 3 - 8 March. We have a trip arranged to Innsbruck on Tuesday 6th March, and would be really happy to meet up with any other VTers who may be there at that time.

We leave London in the morning, and won't be 'on line' again until Saturday, so don't be put off if you don't have a reply.

Are there any 'Locals' there who would be interested in showing us the best sites? Thanks.

Geoff

Can I request resrvation maria theresa innsbruck austria? How?

When leaving Innsbruck, should we go toward Salzburg or head to Munich?

I booked a room at the Hotel Weisses Kreuz, was this a good choice? What are some good restaurants in the area?

My family is planning to be in Innsbruck the first week of June. How much is a typical hotel in the area during June. Also, what are some good sights to see?

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to avoid the traffic congestion on the Autobahn route that connects Munich and Innsbruck. I will be departing Munich on Saturday at noon and am expecting Stau along major stretches of the road.
Thanks,
Bertrand S

Anything to do in Innsbruck at 5am on a Saturday? Our train arrives from Florence at 4:30 and we are going to catch a train to Mayrhoven at noon. Wanted to know if anyone has any suggestions on places to go or things to do and see at this hour in the City Center or near the train station. Also - is there a place in the train station that will hold luggage for a few hours (ie. large lockers etc)

Any info will be helpful. thanks.

Is the Innsbruck card really a good deal in your opinion?

Could you recommend some healthy restaurant in town? I mean places where they cook simple and light meal.

Thanks a lot for your replies!
