Things to do when it rains in the Tiroler Zugspitz Arena

Walks in the rain

Pop on your raincoat & and head out into the fresh air! Because even if it’s just drizzling or spitting with rain, fresh air simply does you good. These trails around the ALPS RESORTS are also suitable for breaks from the rain and light rain:

• Moosle’s Zauberwald in Lermoos: The 4 km interactive adventure trail starts and ends at the valley station of the Grubigsteinbahn (walking time approx. 1.5 hours). You can reach the Grubigsteinbahn via a footpath from the Zugspitz Suites Lermoos in about 10 minutes’ walk.
• The Biberpfad in Biberwier: You can start the 3.6 km-long Biberpfad, featuring 10 information points on the history of Biberwier, from the Alpenchalets Biberwier (walking time approx. 1 hour, circular walk).
• Ehrwald to Biberwier Panorama Trail: approx. 1 hour’s walk through the larch forest. The Panorama Trail can be started directly from the ALPS RESORTS Bergresort Zugspitze Ehrwald and the Alpenchalets Biberwier.
• Pram-friendly routes in Lermoos, Ehrwald, Biberwier and Berwang-Bichlbach-Heiterwang: These paths are easily manageable with a pram and are also suitable for days when the weather is bad.
• Walking trails through the Moos: Lermoos towards Ehrwald to the Moosbrücke, around the Tummebichl, on to Biberwier and back again
• Wachtersteig from Biberwier to Lermoos

Castles & Palaces

Burgenwelt Ehrenberg, Reutte:

You can visit a whole ensemble of castles at the Burgenwelt Ehrenberg in Reutte! It comprises the hermitage with its museum, the Ehrenberg ruins, the Schlosskopf fortress and Fort Claudia. The latter is connected to the Ehrenberg ruins via the spectacular ‘Highline 179’ suspension bridge, which is 406 metres long and 114 metres high. The suspension bridge is accessible even in the rain; however, in extreme weather conditions, it may be temporarily closed for safety reasons. Hiking and walking trails are available within the Burgenwelt – or you can take the two inclined lifts, the Ehrenberg Liner and the Top Liner.
The interactive experience museum features 14 exhibition rooms; there are walking and hiking trails within the castle complex, and for children there are treasure hunts and a museum rally.
