Relax in the middle of nature, recharge your batteries and do it in an uncomplicated and versatile way. Lonely mountain meadows, shady forests, mountain streams with crystal clear spring water offer you peace and inspiration.


The "Kaiser" is no ordinary mountain range. Anyone who rides up to the Brentenjoch in the early morning with the ranger in the lift and then dives into the wonderful world of mountain plants and medicinal herbs, discovers seemingly inconspicuous plants with unusual talents, quickly realizes that this area has special qualities.

Herb walks with rangers are just one way to experience the positive effects of alpine nature on your own well-being. Kufsteinerland is rich in such experiences and places full of inspiration. These include the seven natural mountain lakes with their soothing aura and fresh spring water. Going on a journey of discovery in the mountains to the right and left of the Inn Valley, looking for your dream spot and absorbing the peace and purity of the mountains creates entirely new qualities of life.
