There’s no secret about the fact that eastern Tyrol is one of the most beautiful areas of Austria. It’s a veritable paradise with its secluded, peaceful valleys and pretty villages, ancient stone houses, bright blue skies and lush green Alpine pastures, capped by the snowy peaks of the high mountains.
Boasting Austria’s highest mountains and a sunny climate, it is one of the most beautiful natural landscapes in the Alps. 200 mountain huts and a wealth of hiking trails are there for you to explore.
Ferienhaus Sonnenhang is a partner establishment of the national park:
Miles away from mass tourism and traffic noise, the area is home to 10,000 species of wildlife and 1,800 species of plant. Many of them are timid and prefer to stay well-hidden, making them almost impossible for the untrained eye to spot. Guided hikes and tours with national park rangers are the best way to experience the national park in all its glory.
Relaxation and discovery. The Hohe Tauern National Park boasts one of the most fantastic landscapes on Earth and is a haven of tranquillity for nature-lovers. Your holiday is sure to be a memorable experience – made even better by the special national park bus for hikers!
With over 200 peaks of 3,000 m or more, the Hohe Tauern National Park exudes both a majestic power and peace. The national park’s natural gems include glacier fields, mountain lakes, waterfalls and rushing glacier-fed streams.
The Osttirol Card guarantees plenty of variety. Experience the very best of eastern Tyrol: the card gives you access to seven mountain lifts, five swimming pools, including the lovely outdoor pool in Matrei, and ten other natural and cultural attractions once a day for seven days.
Lienz, the district capital, offers excellent shopping opportunities and has the nearest station, which can be reached in 20-30 minutes by car (or bus). It is also home to Lake Tristachersee. This natural gem is the only lake for swimming in eastern Tyrol and a fabulous place to enjoy an outdoor bathing experience. It is situated in a beautiful location at the foot of the Lienz Dolomites.
