Innsbruck is a vibrant city located in the heart of the Alps. There are endless bars, shops and restaurants serving its 130K population and the many visitors who flock to Innsbruck. The Old Town of Innsbruck is wonderfully atmospheric whilst modern, roof-top terraces open up the sensational vistas.
Inbound access to both Innsbruck and the local skiing is incredible. There is an international airport on the city's western edge, whilst the ski lifts are around 4 miles from the arrivals hall of the airport. A glacier south of the city offers skiing from September to June.
Jagged Horizons operates a DMC from an Innsbruck office – we know this city and the wider ski region like few other event management companies. Located at the crossroads of major valleys, Innsbruck has towering mountains to the north and south, whilst due south, the glaciers on the Italian border loom.
There are few more dramatic locations than Innsbruck. It is the administrative capital of the Tirol and has a fantastic range of services. The scope for activities is impressive with a wide choice of action and cultural pursuits possible.
Not a conventional ski resort, Innsbruck is a city which accesses a range of resorts in its immediate vicinity and slightly further in the Innsbruck Olympic Ski Region. On the edge of the Old Town is an ultra-modern underground funicular which whisks guests up to the Seegrube cable car and the Nordpark ski area, that towers over the city.
The Nordpark offers some of the steepest ski routes in Austria. To the south of the city, the Patscherkofel ski area is easily accessed from the city. Mutters is a similar distance, and both offer great tree-lined intermediate skiing.
A little further is the fantastic ski resort of Axamer Lizum which has great off-piste on its high-altitude ski slopes. And for total snow security (and included on the Innsbruck regional ski pass), the Stubai Glacier has skiing from September through to June on slopes rising to over 3200m. The views and snow quality at the Stubai Glacier are often superb.
Kühtai and Schlick 2000 are 2 other nearby resorts included on the Innsbruck ski pass, Kühtai offers a 2000m + resort and extended ski season.

Innsbruck is not a resort but a city of 130K people. It has numerous quaint ski resorts in the mountains surrounding Innsbruck, but it is a different, yet incredible experience in the city.
In many ways it is an exceptional visitor experience, walking between stylish bars and restaurants and gazing up (almost vertically in the case of the Nordpark) at the ski area snow cannon lights and Pisten Bullies. The narrow valley means that the northern and southern edges of the city give way to rising peaks.
Innsbruck combines old and new superbly well. Much of the infrastructure is ultra-modern with excellent modern bars and restaurants offering views over the mountains.
The Old Town has historic buildings and cellars which host modern bars, wine cellars and a range of impressive restaurants. There are some excellent group venues as well, such as the Bergisel ski jump which can host events, the Innsbruck Congress Centre and numerous large restaurants.
Not known for ski boots on tables, Innsbruck offers an altogether slicker après ski scene with some uber-cool hangouts, frequented by elite skiers and snowboarders.
The range of bars in Innsbruck is incredible offering everything from student hangouts to local’s bars and private roof-top terrace bars. The city has many late bars and clubs which are often busy places, late into the night.
