City & Countryside

One of Innsbruck’s unique features is that it is so close to the mountains that they seem to almost merge into the city, so the Alps will be a constant companion on your walks, shopping sprees and coffee stops. The Hungerburgbahn hybrid funicular railway, designed by star architect Zaha Hadid, climbs up to Innsbruck’s high-lying district of Hungerburg. Whether you continue up to a breathtaking 2,256m on the Seegrubenbahn railway and then ski back down into the valley, unforgettable views over the city and the picturesque mountains await.

These panoramic views that are so close, yet will pull you into the far-reaching majesty of the landscape. Innsbruck is also a paradise for sporty and outdoor types. Hiking, climbing or skiing are all within easy reach from the Hotel Congress Innsbruck – as are the old town’s bars and clubs, where you can see out a memorable day spent in and around the city.
