My husband and I will be in Innsbruck for 2 days, and we wanted to try and do a hike while we are there. I have found a couple out there on the internet, but curious of others experiences.
We are looking for a half day hike that is easily accessed from the city center (or by the incline), hoping to stay within 3-4 hours round trip. We are both active individuals, but not looking for too strenuous where we would scale/rock climb.
If you have any recommendations for a good hike you've done I would appreciate it! Thank you.

ou may like the gorgeous Zillertal, maybe an hour from Innsbruck. Mayrhofen is the main town there, but there a number of small villages as well. The valley is well served by train and numerous cable cars/lifts and the alpine scenery is incredible.

Have you looked into the Nordkette? Easily accessible in Innsbruck via Funicular and cable cars. Very nice walking paths on various levels of the mountain.

We took the funicular (an easy walk from the main area of Innsbruck) to hike in the Nordkette). I got off at the medium level (don't recall the name of the town). There were trails everywhere, but I believe we got a map/talked with someone at the TI to have some idea. I don't recall how much time we spent, but we did stop at one of the "huts" for snacks and a beer!
