Summer in the Nature Park Kaunergrat

A TRUE SPECTACLE OF NATURE

More than 700 different butterfly species dance on the fragrant sunny slopes of the nature park. And that's not all you can experience on your vacation in the Kaunergrat Nature Park. In the kingdom of the 3,000-meter peaks, a wide selection of hikes and bike tours awaits beyond the summer heat. In high alpine fresh air and at crystal clear waters.

Real mountain summer in the Kaunertal valley

"Walking around the mountains is just as important as climbing to their summits," said Austrian mountaineer Heinrich Harrer (1912-2006). We think he's right. On easy to difficult hikes to mountain and valley, our feet carry us right into the middle of the mountain summer of the nature park. Rustic huts and alpine pastures as well as modern restaurants in the valley invite you to stop on the way or on the way home.
