Our tip: Glacier safari
A guided glacier safari brings you up close and personal with the eternal ice. Ernest Hemingway was so impressed by the overwhelming roughness of the Silvretta that he immortalised it in one of his books.
The Paznaun high-Alpine trail
Several days and 60 hours of walking are necessary to complete the 120 km long circular hike. You can instead complete one or multiple stages for a beautiful day or multi-day adventure. The advantage: In the evening, you can look forward to your luxurious holiday home at the Trofana Royal as opposed to the mattress room at an Alpine hut.
Good food throughout your stay
At the sumptuous breakfast buffet, you can fortify yourself for a mountain ascent and, in the evening, toast your achievements with a large gourmet menu in the half-board rooms or in the Heimatbühne restaurant. Of course, you can also hike up to the lake for an enjoyable breakfast with award-winning chef Martin Sieberer or visit a regional beekeeper and sample their honey products. Various gourmet events offer the unique opportunity to combine hiking and 5-star cuisine in high Alpine surroundings.
The smuggling trip to Samnaun
Just about 10 km as the crow flies separate Ischgl and the Samnaun customs exclusion zone. While smugglers used to climb up in cloudy weather to avoid detection by the customs officers, this day trip including duty-free shopping is best done on a clear day. Depending on your physical conditioning, some sections can be covered via cable cars and lifts, e.g. the Silvretta and Flimjoch cable cars lead from Ischgl to the Flimjoch. On the way back, take the double-decker cable car to the Alp Trider Sattel mountain hut. Along the way, enjoy are great panoramic views of the peaks of Samnaun, Silvretta and Verwall ranges.
Celebrate at the summit in the realm of the three thousand metre peaks
You’ll already be familiar with steep ascents from the corporate ladder at your job. Are you still keen on getting results, even on holiday? Then work your way up the steep flanks of a three thousand meter peak - preferably with a knowledgeable mountain guide at your side. The Breite Krone, Bischofsspitze, and Grenzeckkopf peaks will provide you with a bird’s eye view and a true endorphin rush.
