Hiking holiday & MTB holiday in East Tyrol: adventures in the Alps

Summer in Arnbach

Active. Effortless.

Around the AMIL chalets, your own stage for summer unfolds. From gentle walks and mountain hikes to relaxed days on the bike — the possibilities are as varied as the landscape itself. But it’s not about performance. It’s about how it feels. About moving with intention, about moments in nature that simply feel right. There’s no pressure. No pace to keep. Just your own rhythm — and the freedom to follow it, day by day.

Paths that clear the mind

Your alpine escape begins right outside the door. The first trails start directly at the AMIL chalets — no car needed, just a few steps into nature. From here, a wide range of possibilities opens up:
The Thurntaler cable car (mountain station Gadein, 2,100 m) takes you effortlessly to higher ground — to gentle panoramic trails, more demanding tours, and quiet summits with far-reaching views.

For those seeking the more untouched side of the Alps, the nearby Villgraten Valley offers a landscape of striking clarity — unspoilt, calm, and deeply authentic.


Exploring the heart of the Dolomites

For those seeking something truly special, the most memorable experiences begin with ease. A short train ride takes you to Versciaco — from there, the cable car leads you up to Monte Elmo. At the top, wide paths and quiet trails open up, with views of the iconic Three Peaks. Around San Candido and Sesto, more places of quiet beauty await: the untouched landscape of the Innerfeld Valley and the stillness of the Val Fiscalina Valley — perfect for gentle explorations in nature.

And for those drawn further afield, the high plateau of Prato Piazza above Braies, the soft trails of the Val Casies Valley, and the clear mountain lakes of Dobbiaco, Braies, Landro, and Anterselva offer moments where the landscape speaks for itself — open, calm, and deeply impressive.

On two wheels
For those who feel most at home in motion

At AMIL, your ride begins right outside the door. No detours. No planning. Just set off — and follow your own rhythm. Gentle routes through the valley. Steady climbs into the mountains. Each day offers a different direction — and the freedom to choose how far you want to go. The Drau cycle path runs close by, guiding you through the green expanse of the Val Pusteria Valley — with the ease of returning by train whenever you wish. For those drawn higher, the routes towards Huben or the Sillianer Hütte lead you into more demanding terrain — and to views that stay with you.

Where nature becomes art

In this region in the Dolomites, every season speaks to the senses. The landscape around AMIL inspires — at times quiet, at times powerful — always opening new perspectives. Whether you capture the alpine light through the lens or express it in painting under the open sky, nature becomes a form of expression in itself. Even movement takes on a different quality — in slow rides through the surrounding landscape, for example, where time seems to soften. And for those drawn to the game, the nearby Dolomitengolf Osttirol offers one of the region’s most expansive courses: two 18-hole layouts set within the wide valley — challenging, calm, and quietly impressive.
