Tyrol is located in the Austrian Alps and is the federal state with the most mountains. Well over 500 of them exceed the 3,000-metre mark. Beautiful mountain lakes, snow-covered peaks and magnificent views included. Lake Rifflsee, for example, is the highest mountain lake in Austria and is located in the Kaunergrat in the Ötztal Alps. On the border between Tyrol and Carinthia lies the Großglockner, Austria's highest mountain. The Großvenediger, on the other hand, with its 3,657 metres in altitude, runs between East Tyrol and Salzburg.
Anyone who wants to indulge in culinary delights is more than in good hands in Tyrol - at least if you love hearty cuisine. Tyrolean Gröstl and Tiroler Pfandl, bacon and cheese dumplings and a hearty Brettljause are classics in the mountainous province. For dessert, there are traditional Tyrolean kiachl. These are basically farmers' doughnuts.
Apart from mountains and delicious delicacies, there are of course other sights in Tyrol, first and foremost the Golden Roof in Innsbruck. The beautiful oriel was built between 1497 and 1500 and covered with 2,657 gold-plated copper shingles.
Tyrol still has one very special highlight to offer: Area 47, Austria's largest outdoor leisure park. On more than 9 hectares, it delights its visitors with water parks, opportunities for rafting, canyoning, mountain biking and climbing. While some people find the 5-metre jumping tower too high, Area 47 offers absolute pros a 27-metre jumping tower.

As Tyrol is the Austrian province with the most mountains, it also has a correspondingly large number of ski resorts. The more than 80 piste paradises include Ischgl, Sölden, Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis, Kitzbühel, St. Johann, the SkiWelt Wilder Kaiser - Brixental, Nauders and the Tyrolean Zugspitz Arena. Small, cosy ski areas are, for example, Bergwelt Hahnenkamm, Ehrwalder Almbahn, Fendels and Hochkössen.
Tyrol is home to numerous ski areas with guaranteed snow. These include, of course, the Hintertux glacier and the ski world around the Pitztal valley as well as the glacier ski area of Sölden. In the Silvretta Arena Ischgl you can ski and snowboard until May.
Most ski resorts in Tyrol open their doors at the beginning of December. The season ends at the end of March/April, depending on altitude and snow reliability, and in most ski areas continues until Easter.
