Seefeld Holidays

Whizz across slopes and plateaus on holidays to Seefeld – with views of the alpine countryside.

Life in a snow globe

Seefeld sits pretty on a plateau, sandwiched between the grand peaks of Wetterstein and Karwendel in western Austria. In winter, it looks like your classic snow globe village – but in summer it shakes off the snowbanks and bursts into greenery. Be sure to visit the iconic Seekirchl church tower to soak up the panoramic views.

Nature and a half

Surrounded by three mountains, Seefeld's got natural beauty on tap. Take a cable car to the top of the peaks, or walk through moorlands to Wildsee Lake for a quick dip. If you've had your countryside fix for the day, move on to history in nearby Innsbruck, just a 40-minute train ride away.

Skiing king

A top-notch skiing spot, Seefeld's best known for its standout winter sports scene. The Alpine town's downhill slopes are ideal for beginners and intermediates alike – so the whole family can zip around together. A steaming mug of hot choc afterwards is the best way to warm up.

Wildsee in Seefeld

Seefeld takes its name from the words 'see', meaning 'lake', and 'feld', meaning 'field'. The bathing lake is the Wildsee, which is 5.1m deep and is flanked by thick forests. It attracts a whole host of aquatic birds, gentle wildlife and thriving plants.
Area of natural beauty

Wildsee is protected as a place of outstanding natural beauty. The lake is incredibly tranquil, with numerous walking paths for afternoon rambles.
Cool waters

On warm days, swimmers flock to Wildsee to take a refreshing dip. The lake waters only reach 20°C, though the heated swimming pool on the lake complex is a warmer option. There's an excellent restaurant, kid’s pool, adventure playground, kayaks for hire and changing facilities.

Bargain Buys

The pedestrianised village is perfect for farmers' markets, flea markets and other pop-up possibilities where you can fill your shopping bags. The regular market is held on Tuesdays and sells fresh food produce from local farms.
Mid-Range Buys

There are plenty of mid-range retailers in Seefeld as well, offering an array of products like sunglasses, activewear, jewellery, clothes and shoes.
Designer Buys

Seefeld has a number of boutiques stocking designer gear to suit all tastes – like Moncler, Kenzo, Burberry and baby Gucci – plus high-end jewellery and accessories, too.

Laid-back evenings

Seefeld has an array of small bars and pubs where you can go for a quiet evening drink, or just sit and watch the world go by. The pedestrianised centre has plenty of pavement cafés that are perfect for people watching.
Lively evenings

The Die Kane bar and club is a buzzy place for cocktails and a floor show. The venue is part of the Hotel Klosterbräu and bills itself as ‘the most sophisticated nightspot in town’. It’s open three times a week in the summer.

Eating out

Austrian cuisine is the main focal point in Seefeld. You'll find Austrian pubs, delicatessens and fine-dining restaurants with prices to suit every budget. You can settle down for a meal or a glass of wine around Lake Wildsee and watch the sun set on the water, or discover mountain huts serving coffee and cake thousands of metres above sea level.
Deli delights at Plangger Delikatessen

Along the Klosterstrasse is the Plangger Delikatessen, a contemporary deli serving light lunches and wine in the beautiful centre of Seefeld. The popular choice is the Tiroler Teller platter consisting of different hams, breads and cheeses. And if anything really tickles your fancy, you can buy some to take home with you.
Feeling friendly at Elizabeth’s Bar

Opposite the train station is the small and traditional Elizabeth’s Bar. With reasonably priced food, scrumptious Tiroler gröstl and a beer garden to enjoy during the summer months, it’s a great place to stop for lunch.
Non-stop fun at Wildmoos Alm

On the Wildmoos plateau at 1,300m (that's as high as Ben Nevis) is the crazy Wildmoos Alm. Known for its entertaining owner Walter, its food and its schnapps fountain, every day is a party. Energetic staff and quirky interiors make this restaurant a memorable experience for all.

On foot

Seefeld has designated pedestrian districts where everyone can stroll around the town centre and enjoy the sights at their own pace. These include the Dorfplatz, Klosterstrasse and Bahnhofstrasse – all of which have an array of shops, restaurants and bars.
Summer lifts

A variety of lifts are open during the summer to help you explore the mountains, including the funicular railway, the Seefelder Joch cable car and the Harmelekopfbahn, all operating every 15 minutes. They're open between 9am and 5pm every day, from the end of May until the end of October.
