Skiing and Snowboarding in Innsbruck
Innsbruck is literally surrounded by ski ski resorts. If you fly in you can see the lifts dotted all around the city - and with a bit of planning you can be on the slopes just 20 minutes after landing! Each of the resorts has its own charm and character, and with such an abundance of choice there's something fun for every level of skier or boarder. Follow in the tracks of Olympic legend Franz Klammer at Patscherkofel, or set your own fresh line in the steep Nordkette couloirs - it's all up to you! Looking for snow security? At 2020m altitude Kühtai is one of the highest villages in the Alps, and the mighty Stubaier Glacier is less than an hour away.

Biking in Innsbruck
As the sole European destination for the legendary Crankworx mountain bike festival and the home of the 2018 Road Cycling World Championships, Innsbruck has established itself as a hub of all things two-wheeled. Cycling is in the very DNA of the city, and the choice of transport for most locals. Mountain bikers are spoilt for choice - trails zigzag across the surrounding mountains, culminating in the fearsome Nordkette DH Singletrail. Similarly road bikers can spin into the distance on a vast array of smooth and scenic routes and alpine passes.
