The Austrian Tyrol's Leutasch Valley

Overal a superb holiday, with well chosen routes, through and over beautiful valleys and with excellent hotels. This is my third walking holiday with Inntravel and I have yet to be disappointed.

An excellent six days walking in and around the Leutasch Valley, with the incentive of afternoon coffee and cakes waiting for you in each hotel. Thoroughly recommended :)

Myself and my son enjoyed this holiday thoroughly, and would not hesitate to either go on another Inntravel holiday or recommend them. The walking was very varied each day and I looked forward to where we would go every day. 

My tips would be to get a compass and some good hiking shoes!

I did have a problem contacting one of the hotels to let them know we were arriving soon (my fault) but I rang up Inntravel and the kind lady I spole to, contacted them for us and then rang me back to tell me. Very good service!

We had a lovely couple of days in Verona - look out for the pre-Roman Archeological museum which is very impressive and has information in English and Italian. We then caught a train to Innsbruck and Seefeld for the Leutash Valley holiday. We were fortunate to miss the exceptionally early snowfall the previous week and were blessed with sunshine and snowy peaks. Early Autumn is a good time to go with the leaves starting to turn. Best walk was day 3 around Gaistal valley. Best Hotel was Intalerhof with amazing views.

It was all good. It was well set out and balanced. The walks were just right with the a decent amount of challenge but not too much. We had 5 days of really good weather and so had some spectacular scenery.

We had snow on the first day which made our walk memorable in a different way.

One piece of advice I'd definately pass on is to check your route with the hotel to make sure there are no problems. We were warned away from one of the high pass routes as there was still significant snow there which would have made following the footpath more difficult.

Highlight was the walk to and from Mittenwald.

We also appreciated and enjoyed the leisure facilities in each hotel.

The half board option proved to be a real bonus after a day's walking, with very good food provided.

Tips would be: bring a trekking pole and heed Inn Travel's warnings of more difficult sections during inclement weather (particularly snow).

As always, the organisation by Inntravel was flawless. 

Unfortunately we can't vouch for all the routes since we were affected by a severe weather system causing floods in Central Europe in early September.  Snow, even down at valley floor level (very pretty, but more like the skiing season!), and amber rain warnings meant we had to miss a couple of walks and amend others.  However, this did prove the value of the Guest Cards which provided free transport on the efficient bus network when we couldn’t walk.  The app Wegfinder was useful in this respect.

Despite this, we enjoyed the holiday and those routes we did; all the hotels and the staff were welcoming and helpful. 

All the hotels were good to excellent, except perhaps for the Adults Only vibe of the Kristall. All of them fed us extremely well and we particularly enjoyed the salad bars and breakfasts. The quality of breads was exceptional. The walks demonstrated different aspects of the countryside and different qualities of path.

Good to have alternative walk routes available especially on transfer days when the weather may vary.  We had three nights in each of the hotels and were able to borrow the hotel's bikes for a cycling day from Hubertushof. The Gorge walk to Mittenwald was very good. We discovered by chance that there was a 2-day cultural and craft festival in Seefeld whilst we were there and we managed to see some of it. Advance knowliedge of local festivals would have been useful!

We had a lovely holiday!  This is our fourth time travelling with Inntravel and each holiday has been so efficiently and so well planned and organised, all we have to do is arrive with our walking boots!  The hotels were all comfortable and welcoming and set us up for the walks each day. (And restored us each evening). Our walking highlights in the Leutasch Valley- the scent of the pine trees, the fantastic panorama view from the Scharnitzjoch, and the spectacular Leutasch gorge. And as we're an army that marches on our stomachs, the wonderful wonderful breakfast at the hotel Kristall. Thank you!

We loved Pertisau and Hotel Wiesenhof. Good to have cable cars (even though pricey) to get up high as the weather was so hot. We had to take lower routes the week before as the higher and probably more interesting routes would have been too exposed for us. All in all a fabulous holiday -  best food ever! 

This holiday was a superb experience, with route notes that did not let us down and gave us confidence. Some of the routes had clearly been designed to give us special views which made the uphill stages worthwhile. The hotels were all excellent and we were given very good rooms that all had stunning views. The location of the Inntalerhof is exceptional and we will never forget the view along the Inn valley in sunshine or thunderstorm (always in the evening or at night!).

Highlights - cowbells in the meadows, refreshments in the mountain huts, variety of walks, views & routes, super public bus service, comfortable hotels, incredible food, relaxing spa facilities. Useful tips or recommendations-we downloaded the gpx files into the OS Maps app on my mobile, it made navigation simple! Remember to get a plateau card from each hotel so you can use the brilliant free bus service. Hardsoled,lightweight walking shoes (not boots) worked well for us in summer, saved on luggage.

Highlights - walking through wildflower meadows is a joy. Amazing to see them even near the bus stop at the Hubertushof! The staff at all the hotels were so helpful and friendly. Tip - make sure you have the hotel phone numbers with you and check your phone is organised for use abroad! 

Great choice of routes, and second options, wonderful location overall and specifically on these routes (we didn't take the high option A between Weidach and Reindlau because it had rained heavily and continued to rain that day with low cloud, so we saw more from below anyway...). We normally walk later in the year, so the joy of the flowers and the birds was wonderful - orchids of many varieties everywhere, stunningly beautiful flower meadows just being cut for hay, the wonderful smell of the hay fragrant with meadowsweet, awesome!

If you are planning a day trip to Innsbruck we suggest avoiding a Sunday as almost every shop and quite a few cafes were shut. In Mösern the cafe and Information centre are shut on a Saturday, so the late transfer to the airport meant lunch had to be planned carefully. Other than that, a truly memorable and wonderful holiday through flowery meadows and surrounded by beautiful mountains. The mountain restaurants and hotels served tasty food, and we enjoyed using the gym and pool facilities.

Our walking holiday in the Leutasch Valley turned out to be one our favorite adventures. The hotels were exceptional with excellent service and amenities and outstanding meals. We requested upgrades to the rooms and glad we did since they were all large with modern bathrooms.  The routes were easy to follow with the excellent directions provided and the trails were very well marked.  There are some challenging sections but alternate routes were provided to avoid some of them. The scenery was spectacular.  This was our second holiday with Inntravel and we have been very happy with our experiences.  We will cherish our memories of this trip and are grateful to Inntravel for their exceptional service.

We had a perfect holiday in the Leutasch Valley - the three hotels were welcoming, comfortable with served wonderful food. We particularly appreciated the free afternoon Kaffe & Kuchen after a day's walking! The walks were well planned, with thorough and easy to follow notes (no need to map read) but with plenty of flexibility if needed. Inntravel booked our train travel from the UK which all worked smoothly...and when there was a issue Inntravel were responsive, helpful and reassuring. Overall we would highly recommend this holiday. 

The food was a personal highlight! Best food of all Inntravel holidays so far and good to have choice, particularly for the main course of the evening meal. Wonderful to have swimming/spa facilities at each hotel, none of which were particularly busy at the end of June. We found it relatively easy, given the map and number of paths, to make small adjustments to routes to suit the weather and our energy levels.

All the hotels were lovely and all very different. Always check if cafes etc on routes are open as we found a number weren't when we checked so ensured we took provisions with us.

We very much enjoyed the hotels and the facilities there like the swimming pools and sauna etc. The food and service was excellent and the arrangement of having one night at the beginning and then two nights at the end at the Inntaler Hof suited us much better as the walk from the Hubertushof back is quite long. Due to the bad  weather we did not enjoy all the walks to the full and we wondered if there maybe other walks to choose from. The day in Innsbruck was a good idea for a bad weather day. However, it was a great holiday and we all miss the views of the mountains, the amazing breakfasts and lunches and dinners and the great service and hospitaliy and the pools.    

The Leutasch Valley and surrounding Alps were beautiful. The hotels, the innkeeper's hospitality and the delicious dinners were great.  Thank you!!

Thank you for arranging our two consecutive weeks in the Austrian Tyrol. This trip, having not ventured abroad since Covid, has rekindled our enjoyment of visiting Europe, and in particular, Austria. Fabulous locations, and hospitality, and we certainly needed to keep walking to offset some great food! Both Lake Achensee and mountains and the Leutasch valley, were stunning areas, fabulous walks and welcoming hotels to stay. We also found it easy to rent bikes, and ebikes are readily available, making the hills more accessible. The Weisenhof and the Kristall, were our favourites, not to mention some perfect mountain Huttes, to be found along the routes! 

The Leutasch Valley provided wonderful walking, welcoming hotels, good food and lovely views from the balconies we had in all the rooms we stayed in. It was really nice to get back to the hotel after a long walk to eat a cold buffet or coffee and cake (the Hubertushoff had particularly good cakes) and then enjoy a swim and sauna to relax tired muscles. We particularly enjoyed the walk in the Gaistal Valley and we follwed the river path back to the hotel rather than getting a bus as although we were tired it was a pleasant riverside stroll. The final day of walking which was a challenging 18.5 km was wonderful and very varied with breathtaking views over the mountains every time the cloud lifted.  Walking in the cloudy conditions was also very atmospheric. We used the excellent map provided to add additional routes on two of the short walk days which proved to be excellent.

The first week of June is a great time of year to explore The Leutasch Valley. The meadows are abundant with wildflowers and look stunning...all of them! The mountain scenery changes with the weather. We arrived at Innsbruck on an over cast/cloudy & damp day and then a couple of days later the sunshine arrived so we experienced lots of different scenery - it was all fantastic and spectacular to see. For us, it started with the spectacular snowy topped mountain scenery on the descent through the mountain valley to innsbruck airport, and the scenery on every walk continued to amaze us.. over and over again. The photo opportunities are endless! We saw the most beautiful purple orchids in the meadows on the way to the Leutasch Gorge. The mountains are a continuous backdrop to every walk. The villages and churches were beautiful. Seefeld and Mittenwald were interesting to visit and there is lots to admire. The riverside path that is walked on regularly on this holiday is great for walkers & cyclists and great for exploring around.  We walked everyday and covered all our itinerary but going cycling for a day would make a great alternative... on the non/transfer days. 
All the hotels were fabulous. Inntaler Hof - very clean & comfortable, amazing food, and the small indoor pool was great after a long day hiking. Sun loungers were outside for warm days & there are other spa amenities. Kristall hotel - again very clean & comfortable, great food, and we loved the Infinity Pool and sunbathing area on the roof top. The relax pool at this hotel looked great too, but you need to feel comfortable with the fact that swimwear is not worn in here. 
Huberschof Hotel -  also very clean and comfortable. The spa and facilities was spacious and the indoor pool was great, again it was most welcome after a long hike. The food was good, but not my favourite overall. Towels/Dressing gowns are provided in the rooms at all hotels for the spa... and can be put on to go down to the spa, along with the carry basket to use for anything else. The afternoon cake and coffee etc that was available at them all... very nice. All staff at all of the hotels were very helpful and friendly. 
We enjoyed all the walks and over the week covered 65 miles. The walks were arranged thoughtfully, with the longer/more vigorous walks broken up with some days having shorter routes and less elevation. Overall - our personal highlights were the walks & scenery. This is our 3rd holiday with Inntravel so knew the choice of hotels would be excellent and these hotels did not disappoint. From my experience, I think early June is a great time of year to go on this holiday. The scenery is spectacular, and in general it wasn't over busy at the hotels or on the walks. 

We absolutely loved this trip - with both extensions (Pertisau and Innsbruck) it made a wonderful 2 week holiday. The arrangements as always were first class and we travelled around easily on the railway system. The maps and notes together with the gpx made the whole thing very relaxed. I think our tip would be probably not to go at the very start of June - it is very rainy although warm when the sun comes out! We think that September/October would be the best month to do this trip if you can. Can't wait to start looking for our next adventure with Inntravel - thank you again for another wonderful holiday.

The Leutasch Valley is wonderful. Gorgeous scenery, wonderful hotels, lovely hiking. Very highly recommended!!

This was a great holiday - thank you for adding Leutasch to your portfolio. We were blessed with great weather on 4 1/2 days. We also teamed up with a "rooky" Inntravel threesome who were of similar ability and delightful company.

Spectacular scenery, a thoughtfully curated collection of routes with excellent accommodation. The possibility of swimming each day definitely added to our overall enjoyment and the prospect of coffee and cake eased the last few kilometres on a number of the walks.

Another fantastic trip arranged by Inntravel....the walks, food and experiences were excellent. We were blessed in September with amazing weather which allowed us to do all of the high walks recommended and they were superb. We also spent a morning in Innsbruck and took our own walk back to Mosern from Seefeld.....well worth a visit if you get the chance. We borrowed the free mountain bikes on our arrival at hotel Kristall which allowed us to orientate ourselves quickly. The food in all the hotels was great and the extras of afternoon cake, snacks were brilliant and worth trying if you are around. Inntravel arranged a train to Vienna for us and we arranged and booked our own hotel for my husbands birthday....we had an excellent time there too, if you get the chance to go while in the country. All of the staff at Inntravel were as helpful as ever.

The Leutasch Valley was a lower key trip than many, but very interesting in terms of the areas hiked in. The Violin Museum in Mittendorf was interesting.

The walking was fabulous and each walk was well choosen. The hotels were all different, but all were confortable and well equipped. The staff were unfailingly kind, helpful and pleasant. The food in InntalerHof and Hotel Kristal was exceptional and we ate far too much!  

Excellent hotels with the Inntaler Hof and Krystall particularly welcoming. Varied walking with plenty of superb viewpoints but a few long, tedious sections though thick forest with annoying e-bikes for company (especially Day 2). The climb to Scharnitzjoch is certainly worth it but we found the final part of the descent distinctly unpleasant. The lower part of the Leutasch Gorge (€4pp) is very atmospheric and should not be missed and Mittenwald is simply beautiful (consider catching the bus back from the bahnhof to improve your chance of getting a seat). The Wiesenhof (Pertisau extension) is another excellent hotel. The lakeside walk to Achenkirch is lovely (a well-engineered path) and the views from the Rofanspitze walk are stunning.

Excellent holiday. Tough but rewarding walks - worth the effort!!

Every day was different, every walk provided new challenges which made the whole experience positive and rewarding. The Hotel Innhalter was our favourite due the the spectacular views from the balcony, but all of the hotels were good. The instructions for walking were foolproof and we hardly ever used the map provided. We also had a GPS app which was useful for backup.

One of our best ever Inntravel holidays in terms of the quality of accommodation and the food (and we've done a fair few now!)

We enjoyed both The Leutasch Valley and Lake Achensee holidays despite my husband developing a hip problem on the first day of the holiday which made walking quite painful for him.  We still had a great time and were able to adapt the walks and use buses, boats, chair lifts and cable cars to shorten the routes.  I walked some sections of the routes on my own and felt completely safe and confident.  All the hotels were very good with plenty of choice on their menus and the food was lovely.  We particularly enjoyed the food at the Hotel Kristall and sat outside in the sunshine for a late lunch on both days choosing from a fantastic freshly made buffet which was included in the cost.  Each hotel has a swimming pool which was a real bonus and aid for bad hips.  The scenery was of course amazing and although we felt frustrated not to be able to do all the walks in the mountains on the route notes we were easily able to get about and enjoy the views.    

This is our fourth Inntravel holiday experience and it lived up to our expectations: excellent walking notes and great hotels.

In Salzburg we had a delicious meal at the small neighbourhood Italian 'Pasta und Vino' only a block down Wolf-DietrichStrasse from the hotel.  

INNTRAVEL NOTE: These customers combined our Munich & Füssen Romantic Bavaria and The Leutasch Valley walking holidays, followed by a stay in Salzburg

Walks were all excellent and well described in the notes and hotels were generally good. Recommend starting walks early in hot weather.

The scenery is amazing, the hotels just what we needed at the end of a day of walking and the food superb

We chose to do the Leutasch Valley first followed by a week in Pertisau, Achensee. We used rail transfer between. We were not disappointed with our choices!

The Leutasch Valley week had some excellent walks, and we enjoyed the format of 'circular walk then transfer walk'. Favourite walks were the Day 4 High Route Via Scharnitzjoch. It was a shame that day was rainy. The views from Scharnitzjoch would have been spectacular. It was still atmospheric with the clouds. It was the only day I used walking poles. Day 5 Leutaschklamm (gorge) to Mittenwald was easy going and quite touristy in the gorge (you won’t need walking boots for this one – walking shoes would be fine). We had lunch in Mittenwald and caught the bus back (free with the guest pass - emailed from the hotel) but got off at Gasthaus Műhle (mill) and walked back by the river. The river walks were lovely. We also enjoyed the long transfer day on Day 6 Reindlau to Mösern, which had lovely, varied scenery. Tip: The downloadable maps proved very useful and saved time on the walks. It was hard to see the route in advance on the paper map without these. The instructions were good, however, should you want to use them. We enjoyed staying at each hotel. We used the pools in each hotel to relax after walking. Hotel Inntaler Hof had a large room with a super view of the valley and good service. The breakfast at Inntaler Hof gave the most choice at breakfast, but at dinner the second dessert option of sorbet was always smaller than the main option. Hotel Kristall was a modern hotel, and the room was smaller, but the staff were very friendly and the views from the roof top pool were lovely - the massage bubbles are great too. We enjoyed the singer in the bar on Tuesday night, which made for a relaxed evening. We weren't the only ones playing card games of an evening. Hotel Hubertushof had a drying room with a boot drying rack which was helpful as Day 4 was wet. It was a relaxed hotel.

Lake Achensee and its Mountains was more touristy, as we had chosen a warm week in August and we didn’t know it was a public holiday on the Tuesday, so Monday was a ‘bridging day’. Pertisau is mostly hotels, but in a lovely location. We did walks 1A, 3, 5, 7 and 9. The remaining day we did a different walk from Achenkirch. Our favourite walk was the Rofenspitze (Walk 7), which after a start with lots of people, thinned out as we climbed higher. The views from the top were wonderful. I used poles for that walk. Dalfaz Waterfall (Walk 9) makes the recommendation to change buses to go to Buchau, but as we missed the bus, we followed the yellow walking signs to the Falls (Wasserfälle). At one point there was a choice of routes (both going to the falls), and we took the left-hand narrower route which took us quickly into the woods. The bus wasn’t worth the time you might need to wait. The descent to Dalfaz waterfall was narrow, steep and slippery, so once we had a good view of the falls, we decided it wasn’t worth it to go to the bottom and went back to rejoin the route. Other people had gone down the the bottom of the falls though. The route apart from that is not technically difficult but as it was a hot day, the zigzag ascent felt quite long, and it was good to stop and admire the spectacular views back to the lake. The Dalfazalm Hut is a welcome sight and there is a short, pleasant route back to the cable car. Both walks 7 and 9 are worth to do in good weather to see the expansive views. The Wiesenhof hotel was very relaxing, and the staff were kind. I booked friends in for evening dinner one day and they set up a table for five of us in the bar area, as there was no space in the dining room. We liked it that all the staff had photos in the main hallway and the hotel seemed to have a strong people focus. The pool is great for swimming and there is a great thermometer that tells you the outside and water temperatures, so you know how much of a shock to expect getting in. Tip: Take flip flops, as I found the floor a bit slippery in the ones provided – it is especially worth it if you have small feet, as the hotels provide one size. Tip: Ask for a lighter duvet if it is summer.
As general comments, in Austria the mains are a choice of meat, fish or vegetarian. I could find something in the meat or fish options, but they don't really have good vegetarian choices. Overall, we felt well catered for. We didn't so much enjoy Austrian coffee as it's strong - the Verlanger is supposed to be a long coffee but isn't an Americano. The Cappuchinos are mostly milk froth and don't really have much coffee in. Some hotels do a cannister of coffee, but it seems to go cold quickly. Coffee aside, we enjoyed the cakes at the mountain huts and had a cold drink instead. At Achensee, the bus timetable was quite difficult to understand. The bus to Maurach parks for a while at the bottom of the Karwendel cable car. Wait at the cable car side of the road for the bus, which then picks up passengers all around Pertisau before going back via the cable car bus stop and heading off to Maurach. The bus from Maurach seemed rather unreliable, which is unusual for Austria. The bus is free with the guest pass you get at breakfast. We did not buy the Achensee card and the transport we used cost us about the same. We used the ferry twice, the Rofenspitze cable car down twice, and the Karwendel lift up once.

We were pleased with our holiday choice. The hotels, walks and transfers are all good, as we have come to expect from Inntravel. 

We fully enjoyed this holiday. We booked late, and appreciated the efforts Inntravel made to find a holiday to suit our needs. The hotels and food were excellent. We liked having a short and easy transfer from Innsbruck airport 

Our highlights were: walking in the Gaistal Valley on day 3, it was quite rainy so there were few other walkers about and we came across an Alpine Salamander on the path; and the walk from Ober Weidach to Reindlau during which we saw marmots and chamois, a fabulous day's walk. This was the most enjoyable holiday we have been on, can't recommend it highly enough. We will certainly be back for more.

I would recommend getting the train from Innsbruck if you fly there, its a really lovely short run up to Seefeld. I would also recommend getting hold of the local bus timetable, there are great services linking up the various villages in the Leutasch Valley.

A good holiday which is exactly as described in the brochure and website. Hotels are good quality and we especially enjoyed staying at the Inntaler Hof in Mosern with its fantastic views, lovely food, and attentive friendly staff.

 A very good trip, well-chosen and beautiful routes, and an excellent quality of accommodation

Overall we had a great time. It was a first time using guided walks, so you learn from experience. Some of the days were a bit too long for us and I think the team would know that you were new to Inntravel so in my opinion it would've been good to have some contact to see how we were getting on. That would be my only feedback we literally had no contact from Inntravel.

Excellent locality and some great walks and hotels. The summer 'activ' cards provided by hotels are very handy (and more information on them could have been included to explain their benefits). The flowers and wildlife in late June/early July were brilliant but as expected apline weather can be changeable. We added extra days at Hubertershof and hired eBikes, which were very good quality and provided additional enjoyment and ability to access a wider area. Definetely recommend this holiday.

The combination of the Leutasch Valley walk with 4 nights in Pertisau and 3 nights in Innsbruck made for a very good holiday in a part of the world with amazing scenery. All hotels were very good with the Wiesenhof a very special hotel.

INNTRAVEL NOTE: These customers combined our walks The Leutasch Valley and Hotel Wiesenhof, Pertisau with our Innsbruck City add-on

Have done this holiday before, albeit some years ago, and it didn't disappoint.  Guests should be notified of the dress code for dining at the Kristall (no shorts).

An amazing walking holiday with fabulous scenery. You are rewarded at the end of each day with lovely comfortable hotels which provide plentiful tasty food. Highly recommend the Mpreis supermarket in Weidach for stocking up on supplies and purchase of lunch. We also opted to include both of the suggested cable car trips from Seefeld and Mittenwald. Both well worth the expense and extra effort- The walk to the funicular in Seefeld is a little bit further than we realised which made for a long day's walk with a walk to the very top included as well! You get stunning views from both. We enjoyed the variety of walks which when assisted by the GPX files were easy to follow.

The Leutasch Valley holiday accommodation was a consistently high standard. All the hotels were sumptuous and welcoming, you could almost forget the walking and treat yourself to a spa experience instead!

Our favourite walk was the high level route between Ober-Weidach and Reindlau.

Highlights: Walking alongside chuckling rivers on peaceful tracks, through incredible Alpine meadows full of wild flowers. And then greeted by friendly hotel staff who served super meals!

If customers are able to - download the Kompass App and use it to help navigation (remember to organise roaming with the phone company). Some fellow customers used AllTrails (I think) but it wasn't as accurate as the Kompass map. 

The Leutasch Valley, Lake Achensee and Innsbruck are a really nice combination. All the hotels were first class, the walking was excellent and the scenery often stunning and by adding on extra days it could all be done at a leisurely pace. The weather varied, but it was never too hot and when it rained it could pour ... but only for a couple of hours. And the full sunny days were glorious. In short, a delighfully balanced holiday. 

INNTRAVEL NOTE: This customer combined our walking holidays 'The Leutasch Valley' and 'Lake Achensee & its Mountains' with our city add-on in Innsbruck.

We had a fantastic holiday in the Leutasch Valley, the meadows were full of flowers and the mountain tops were capped with snow. Fortuitously, on our first day we met a couple of seasoned Inntravel travellers and walked four of the six walks with them. The hotels were marvellous and the food delicious.    

Absolutely stunning walking location, with exceptional Alpine meadows, great stop offs for food en-route. The hotels were all family run, with great service and beautiful food. We did not want to leave and we are missing the walking already. The longest walk was the best, a real achievement for us but well worth the effort and I will never forget that walk. 

Tips: For Reindlau to Mosern one can take a bus to Weidach, and then on Saturdays and Sundays at any rate the chair lift up to Katzenkopf FREE on the Gastekarte.

Highlights: the views and the flowers.

A beautiful area to walk in with three very comfortable spa hotels with excellent food.  Our highlights were the walk in the Gaistal Valley and the gorge walk into Mittenwald. In Mittenwald there was a festival with many local people out in Bavarian costume with lots of music and beer tent! Some useful tips which could be highlighted are: each hotel provides walking poles and rucksacks. Would it be possible to borrow walking poles from the Intaller and return them on the last day? With a deposit if necessary?  It's hard or impossible to get poles into a suitcase. there is a pass you can get from the hotels which gives you free rides on the local buses and discounts on other things.  We were given this without requesting it at the Kristall. The Hubertshof said he'd email it, but no one got it and the Intaller didn't mention it at all. each hotel gives you a basket with towels and flip flops/slippers. The idea is you wear the robes in your room to the spa and take the basket with your things in it. This process wasn't understood by any of the people from Inntravel so it may be useful to mention it in the notes as all the spas were lovely to visit!

So many highlights. Impossible to mention them all. Every day we were treated to stunning views. Walking through the incredible Spring Flower Meadows was amazing. Enjoyed our visit to Gaistelalm on the Gaistel valley route. Can recommend the Apfel Strudel and the beer while overlooking the stunning valley.

The food at Hotel Kristal was wonderful.

We were very fortunate - the weather was superb, and the flowers in the meadows (which were being cut as we arrived! in the valley) were wonderful.  All the hotels were wonderful and welcoming and the food was exceptional.  We were pleasantly surprised that each hotel offered an open buffet in the afternoons.
We had an extra night at each hotel, which for us worked well.  Thank you for organising this.  If we had not and had taken the long options each day, we might have felt we did not have enough time to enjoy the excellent facilities at each hotel -- the swimming pool at Inntalerhof and the rooftop infinity pool at Kristall were highlights.  
It was quite a quiet time tourist-wise, which for us was a bonus, but several of the mountain cafes on the trails were not open.
On one of our extra days we took the funicular and cable cars from Seefeld, which we hugely enjoyed, including the ridge walk up to one of the peaks.

Inntravel gave us a superb walking holiday in Austria. The scenery was stunning, the air was so fresh and clean and  the food and accommodation was excellent. We had a thoroughly enjoyable holiday. The administration of the holiday was first class. Our tip is not to take too much notice of long range weather forecasts as once at our destination we discovered the weather can only be accurately forecast a day or two in advance! 

The meadows were full of beautiful flowers wherever we went. It was so picturesque in so many places & the views into the valley from Inntaler Hof were a real highlight. The food at the Kristall was wonderful, definitely the best out of all the hotels. Our holiday was made all the more special by the lovely weather & very friendly hosts at all the hotels. We loved the afternoon buffets with a choice of savoury as well as sweet dishes to enjoy. We took full advantage of these to satisfy our hunger until dinner time. A special week away indeed.

We did ask for lighter weighted duvets in our bedrooms & both Inntaler Hof & Hubertshof were able to provide these for our 2nd nights. There is no air conditioning in any of these hotels. 

Wonderful hotels, delicious food, very varied walking - from mountain meadows and streams to snow-covered slopes and glacial lakes, and even including 'cultural' highlight of Mittenwald, a stunning Bavarian village with beautifully painted houses. The itinerary is well-planned, to cater for a variety of different grade walks and to allow both challenging days and more relaxing ones. The infinity pool at Hotel Kristall, with views of the mountains all around, is stunning - and the staff at all the hotels are friendly and efficient. The Pertisau days offered a complete change of scenery - beside the Achensee lake - and although the atmosphere there is more touristy and less 'sporty', it was good to be able to enjoy a couple of more relaxed days at the end of the holiday. The Sachertorte at the Erfurthutte at the top of the Maurach cablecar is not to be missed! When going up in the Karwendel cablecar from Pertisau, the final carriage has the best views of the lake. 

We had a really good ten days comfortable hotels and excellent walks although some of the walking notes needed up dating luckily with the map a compass we didnt get lost. The food was varied and not too much with excellent breakfasts.

This trip exceeded expectations. The walks were spectacular and we lucked out with the weather. All of the hotels were lovely and the food very good at each.  Another fabulous Inntravel trip!

We have been on numerous Inntravel holidays, and this time combined three holidays giving us three weeks abroad. It was an excellent selection, no time wasted between holidays, and the travel arrangements Inntravel sourced for us, were perfect. We left Hotel Wiesenhof at 10.30am and arrived at our first Italian hotel at 2.00pm. The choice of hotels was good, particularly Hotel Hubertushof with its extremely friendly hosts, beautiful peaceful setting and excellent food. Pertisau was very special, Hotel Wiesenhof outstanding, and we particularly enjoyed the walk to Rofanspitze. The Dolomites were very busy with tourists, but loved the walking routes as wherever possible they took us away from the main tourist paths, so one could enjoy the peace and tranquility of the mountains. Two walks not to be missed are Mount Specie at Prato Piazza, and Mt Elmo. Gondolas have replaced the Cable car at Sesto, so there is no waiting as they run continuously. On our last night of the holiday, Frau Watschinger hosted a cocktail evening with an excellent guitarist who entertained us. The food at all the hotels was exceptional. Overall a magical holiday, so well organised as always by Inntravel. Thank you so much, we can't wait to plan our next adventure!

After an initial couple of days of heavy rain the sun came out and we had four days of wonderful walking. The scenery is glorious - wide green valleys, rivers flowing with water of a beautiful milky turquoise colour, beautiful forests and some stunning views. We particularly enjoyed the walks along the rivers and through the woods. Some of the climbs were pretty steep, particularly on the last day on the return journey to the Inntaler Hof and we felt we had earned our cold beer at the Möserer See café! Hotels were of a high standard and the rooms were spacious and comfortable. We enjoyed some very good meals, particularly breakfasts. We didn't need picnics as breakfasts were excellent and we sometimes even made it to the hotel in time for tea and cakes in the afternoon.

We had a hugely enjoyable time, the highlights being the long, peaceful walks and quality time spent together as a family journeying through a stunning landscape. The vivid colours of a high summer in Austria were striking. Inntravel were friendly and professional, and provided us with a reliable itinerary to explore an area we were previously unfamiliar with.

Inntaler Hof was excellent, with stunning views and a great pool, but could do with a chef shake up. Hotel Kristall's food and rooftop pool were both highlights. Leutasch Gorge is a wonderful place to visit, but get there early to avoid the tourists who have only walked from the car park! Mittenwald is well worth a visit with interesting architecture and pubs/restaurants and shops.

The Karwendelbahn cable car is a must, ascending over 2km up the mountain.  It is very expensive, but worth it. The landscape, the geology, the flora and fauna were fascinating.

HIGHLIGHTS: The walks from Mosern to Weidach and Reindlau back to Mosern felt like real journeys from one valley to another, with great and varied scenery. The food and hospitality at the Inntaler hof (especially Happy Man cocktails each night). In Salzburg my wife just loved the Sound of Music Tour and we both loved Salzburg as a city.

We had a great time on the The Leutasch Valley trip. The quality of the hotels and variety and intesity of the walks was excellent. We liked the choice of routes given on certain days so you could pick to suit your needs. The walking highlight for us was day 3 up the mountain. Highly recommend this trip, a great way to unwind.

An absolutely perfect week of beautiful scenery, varied and suitably challenging walking, well located and relaxing hotels, attentive service and great food. Simply the best way to switch off, relax and unwind. We will be back!

Both holidays were excellent and worked well back-to-back. We would recommend doing it in this order.Food proportions were enormous in all hotels (usually 6 couses at main meals); and the Leutasch Valley ones provided afternoon coffee and cakes each day if back early enough. We bought the Achensee Holiday Card card for €84 each from the hotel reception when we booked in; we made use of it in some way every day (and within 2 hours of our arrival). Well worth it. We found the mountain restaurants well worth visiting (for coffee and cakes, although in one on a wet day we found 'chocolade mit rhum'...).

The "high route" walk from the 2nd to 3rd hotel is well worth the effort as the views at the top are magnificent; even more so if one ventures a bit further along the different path beyond the small hut (this part of the path is fine). Similarly the "low level" walk to Mittenwald with the walk through the gorge is well worth it - also makes for a relatively easy day if one has done the high route the day before.

A word of praise also to the staff at Inntaler Hoff - due to problems with trains on the German network we were unsure of arrival time at Seefeld for the hotel pickup; but a flurry of e-mails en-route from Munich ensured a timely collection at the station.
