Events and excursions in Ehrwald

Kicks, culture and views with a wow effect

Always heading for the summit - with the Zugspitzbahn, Tyrol's 1st cable car. It has been taking mountain fans from Ehrwald to the 2,964 m Zugspitze for 90 years now. There are free 20 minute guided tours of the summit during the summer – and, of course, a mountain panorama with wow effect throughout the year. Technology enthusiasts can gain an insight into how the Zugspitzbahn operates in the showroom at the valley station.

A "view with a kick" is what the world's longest suspension footbridge promises, the Tibet-style Highline 179 near Reutte , around 30 minutes away by car. You can demonstrate your courage on a trip there and marvel at this imposing structure! A detour to the Ehrenberg Castle World makes for a great addition to the itinerary. Or a relaxed end to the day in the Ehrenberg thermal baths.

The famous mountain bonfires in June as well as colourful cattle driving festivals in autumn plunge you into Tyrolean tradition and culture. In contrast, thrill seekers can enjoy the region's numerous sporting highlights. Holidays in Ehrwald – unforgettable moments guaranteed!

Tips for the most beautiful excursions in Ehrwald and the surroundings can be obtained from reception.
