Advice for those who want to travel low cost in Tyrol, a holiday for those who love green landscapes and walks, for those with a family I recommend Kufstein, read the post and book in Austria.
Il Kufstein is located in Tyrol, a village rich in nature and traditions, with very kind people and good food. Those who prefer the mountains to the sea, even in summer, can only spend a relaxing stay here, both for those who love to dedicate their days to regenerating walks, and for those who love to find culturally interesting places, where even a seven-day stay is not tired and it's pleasant.
What to do in Kufstein?
Walk, walk, walk. Seriously, the walks in and around Kufstein are truly memorable. The sparkling air, even in summer, is a panacea for those who suffer from the heat, in the evening then without a sweater or jacket you cannot go out. Kufstein is relatively small, but very lively. To see his absolutely Castle, disputed for many years because at the border. Under the Castle passes theInn the river which descends from Innsbruck, while its tower contains a prigione which they call luxury here, because it was where political prisoners were held. Luxurious because each prisoner had a cell and the prisons were heated by a stove, something that prisoners were generally absolutely denied.
In addition to the Castle, at the foot of which there is theorgano largest exterior in the world that plays every day at 12 and in summer, in the months of July and August even at 18, you can visit the historic center. Kufstein has so many delightful shops, a shopping center and also many parks to relax or take a coffee in the small bars that surround them.
How to have fun with children?
Kufstein is a real paradise for children, for many reasons. First of all the green, here there is no place where children, even the smallest ones, cannot run freely. Then the animals, goats, goats and cows, horses, chickens and rabbits. Thanks to the organization of the Municipality of Kufstein, children can go out weekly accompanied by adults who work for the area and who stay in the hotels in the area.
There are many activities that can be done and among these there is precisely the exit to get to know the farm animals. So, while the grown-ups are on an excursion or a walk in the mountains, the little ones (as long as they are over 4 years old) can stay together with the other children, get to know the farm animals, play, even making a small little pic nic on the meadows. Last activity before returning to mum and dad? Jump into the barn!
There are many other activities that the little ones can do or where together with the whole family you can spend an entire day. In Ebbs there is it Zoo of rare species where you can also enter by purchasing a family ticket and you can spend a pleasant morning getting to know animal species never seen before.
Another activity that I highly recommend is visiting the Motorikpark, 2 km of games in the woods for everyone, even for adults. It is accessed through a car park, where there are also public toilets, both for adults and changing tables for children. Two kilometers of paths to do barefoot in nature between leaves and stones and water. Finally, lots of games, scattered along the path that runs along the river, interspersed with small waterfalls and with the background of the Kufstein Castle with increasingly difficult games, dedicated to children who want to test themselves between balance and motor skills.
Where to sleep in Kufstein?
My dispassionate advice is to sleep in a structure that can be both a hotel and an apartment. Especially if you are traveling as a family, theFrohnatur hotel it is a very valid alternative for those who want to be served (for breakfast) and want to do it themselves for both lunch and dinner without paying for meals that would not be consumed. Breakfast at Frohnatur is provided by the Hotel and is super abundant It is very good. Lunch and dinner is a service that they do not offer, even if a Hinterthiersee the locality near Kufstein where the Hotel is located, there are excellent restaurants and even a supermarket. However, the hotel offers a fully equipped kitchen on each floor, including a oven and mini bar where, among other things, there are drinks, and in the back of the hotel there is a beautiful garden with two barbecues available to guests, a pond and lots of games for children.
I forgot, the Hotel also has Swimmingpool, open until 22 pm and with sauna and turkish bath.
