Holidays to Obergurgl are a fairy tale fantasy, with peaceful mountain views and Austria's finest spa hotels.

Peaceful perfection

Summers in Obergurgl are pure mountain bliss – pack up a picnic and scale the mountains for a bite to eat and an epic view. This village in Austria's Tyrol region is chock full of walking trails – complete with local wildlife – as well as quaint cafés sprinkled along its streets.

Waterfall wading

Tyrol's second-largest waterfall, Stuibenfall, is about an hour's drive outside the village and has paddling opportunities aplenty. The air's clean and the views are a dream – but there's always the motorbike museum at Top Mountain Crosspoint if you want a little less nature and a little more horsepower.

Spa soaks

Obergurgl's got relaxation down – with spectacular spas and landscapes to match. Sink into a bubbling hot tub while you soak up the mountainous views. If you want to touch the peaks, catch a chair-lift or gondola in the summer to hop to the top with ease.
