Idyllic Alpine inns, blossoming pastures and a paradisical view to the Kaiser mountains – meanwhile those who enjoy romance, will feel just right in wonderful Tyrol. In the holiday region of Walchsee there are numerous opportunities to enjoy a relaxing and particularly pleasure-filled autumn holiday. How better to enjoy autumn in Tyrol than on a tranquil boat trip across the crystal-clear Walchsee or during a hike or cycle tour through the colourful woodlands?

At any season – but in autumn especially – there are plenty of different events taking place in the region around Das Walchsee Sportresort that are not to be missed. Carriage rides through the picturesque autumn landscape, or a hike to one of the traditional Alpine inns – there are no shortage of highlights and events during an autumn holiday in the Kaiserwinkl.
