Holidays close to Nature ...

Tyrolean Pitztal! The ideal holiday destination for families and nature lovers!

The climate is healthy, the air clear and the sun shines. A place to recharge the batteries of the mind and body.

Fauna and Flora
Pitztal displays a varied and rich diversity of fauna and flora. Anybody embarking on a tour of discovery will uncover an impressive multitude of vegetation habitats spanning the moors of the Pillersattel to the wetlands and glacial region. The forests, depending on altitude and location, are home to pine, larch, Scots pine, and several rare deciduous trees ( aspen, mountain ash). Dwarf juniper and savin are noteworthy shrubs. Apart from its economic utilisation, the woods in the Pitztal are particularly important as avalanche protection.
Pitztal is home to a rich diversity of game. Apart from deer, red deer and chamois, ibex, which was reintroduced in 1953 (Pitztal symbol), and a small colony of mouflon sheep are mainly to be found. The capercaillie, black cock, bearded vulture and marmot are likewise native to Pitztal.

Summit of feelings!
Geigenkamm, Kaunergrat and Wildgrat and the rest of them. Altitude paths and hikes, cabin-to-cabin hiking, glacier walking - the view and the panorama from the summit are just as charming as a cabin stopover. Traditional farming life is still vibrant in the alpine pasture land down in the valley: butter and cheese making as well as the cosy get-togethers at the numerous alpine festivals. It is precisely during the hiking season that the fauna and flora shows its best side. Hiking along babbling brooks and enjoy the fascinating view presented by the Pitztal glacier landscape. The sight of wild goats, the symbol of the Pitztal, is no rarity.
Alpine pastures exploding in a riot of colour when in full bloom and a clear view to the horizon transform the summer into a glorious natural spectacle! Experience nature to the full, while your children are being cared for with a programme of fun and adventure at the Pitzis' Kids' Club.
