Wattenberg. In Tyrol
The village of Wattenberg at 1000 meters above sea level is an insider tip for those seeking relaxation. The picturesque farms and houses that make up the pretty village of Wattenberg are located at this altitude in a prime "panoramic position" high above the Inn Valley. Originally, the village was an alpine pasture area that became a permanent settlement due to mining. Until the 17th century, miners dug for iron and copper in the Wattenberg Mölstal valley. After the "mining blessing" died down, agriculture came to the fore again. And this still characterizes the beautiful landscape today: numerous original farmhouses, which have been lovingly and stylishly renovated in recent years, make Wattenberg a very special vacation resort.
Many small chapels invite you to pause for a moment - there is no church in Wattenberg, as the area is not an independent parish. It goes without saying that this special landscape magically attracts hikers. Well-known long-distance hiking trails such as the "Dream Trail from Munich to Venice" or the new main Tyrolean hiking trail, the "Adlerweg", lead through the idyllic Wattental valley to the Lizumer Hütte. The mountain area around the Lizumer Hütte is also a real "insider tip" in winter: Numerous routes of varying degrees of difficulty make the heart of every ski tourer beat faster. Hikers, mountaineers, mountain bikers and ski tourers will find almost inexhaustible opportunities to enjoy nature in the Wattental up to 2300 meters above sea level.
