What to expect
We’ll take you to some of the most scenic spots in the Stubai Valley, with four included guided walks led by our knowledgeable local guides. With a maximum of 20 guests, the group stays small and friendly, giving you plenty of opportunity to get to know your fellow walkers along the way.
With an impressive 850km of marked trails, there’s plenty to discover across the valley, from peaceful walks through the countryside to family-friendly routes and more challenging high-altitude hikes. You’ll walk beneath some of the most impressive peaks in the Stubai Alps, with spectacular mountain views and plenty of opportunities to stop and take it all in. With trails at different levels and altitudes, you can choose to keep things gentle or challenge yourself along the way.
Your included Stubai Super Card makes it even easier to explore, with free and discounted activities throughout the valley and unlimited use of up to four selected mountain lifts. So, when you’re not out walking with the group, you can head higher into the mountains, explore independently or simply relax and enjoy the scenery.
Evenings are relaxed and sociable, with plenty of time to chat over dinner, swap stories from the trail and get to know the group. You can also join our Inghams Quiz Night for an evening of friendly competition and plenty of laughs.

This beautiful walk starts from the top of the Elfer lift and follows picturesque trails to the Zindegg, a quiet but magnificently panoramic peak. We'll stop for a break on the way back at the wildly romantic Autenalm hut where you can buy lunch (payable locally).

Enjoy lots of local insight and spectacular views of the Stubai and Inn valleys on this tour of Neustift's home mountain, the Elfer. The gondola does the most of the uphill and we start our walk from the top of the lift, visiting the sundial and then climbing up to the Elferhütte to admire the view. A leisurely path takes us to the rustic Autenalm, one of the oldest Alpine pastures of the Tyrol, and where we enjoy lunch at the hut (payable locally). After refuelling, it's slightly uphill to the lift station to catch the gondola back down to the valley.

It's all about the views on this walk - from the top of the Elfer lift, the Panorama Trail offers an insight into the rich flora and geology of the Pinnistal, a southern side valley of the Stubai Valley. Two types of rock come together here so the geology is interesting and we're likely to see chamois, maybe hear a whistle or two from the local marmots too. On route, enjoy lunch at the Karalm (payable locally) where the mountain views make the traditional food taste even better.

From the top of the Kreuzjoch lift, this undulating trail traces the southern slopes of the Mitterjoch to "Goldsuttn" - a mining area dating back to the 16th Century - passing numerous vantage points along the way with views stretching from the Inn Valley back to the Stubai Glacier. There'll be a stop at the Starkenburger Hut where you can buy lunch (payable locally), before we return to the lift station for the descent into the valley.

Today is a free day to relax or make the most of your final day in Neustift. Take the Elfer cable car up towards Elferspitze and enjoy a gentle woodland stroll or a panoramic walk between mountain huts, or head to Stubay for a swim and some time to unwind in the sauna. Back in the village, grab a drink on a terrace and watch the paragliders drifting overhead. If you’re feeling really adventurous, why not try a tandem paragliding flight or explore the Stubai Valley by raft or Segway?
Time to say goodbye to your new walking companions and head home to marvel over all the fantastic experiences you've just had. See you on the next one?
