Innsbruck is a compact Tyrolean city known for its imperial Old Town, the Golden Roof and its striking Alpine backdrop. It combines Habsburg history with a lively student atmosphere and a strong connection to skiing and hiking.
Schwaz is a small Tyrolean town known for its silver-mining history and well-kept old centre. Historic churches and painted houses sit against a mountain backdrop, giving it a lively but traditional alpine character.
Jenbach is a small Tyrolean town in the Lower Inn Valley, known for its unusual rail connections and access to Achensee. More practical than picturesque, it has an everyday Alpine character shaped by industry, mountains and nearby hiking areas.
Kufstein is a Tyrolean city on the River Inn, known for its fortress and the Heroes' Organ above the old town. With the Kaiser Mountains nearby and the German border close, it feels historic, compact and strongly shaped by alpine life.
