Holiday information

 

A winter holiday in Mösern, Tyrol

Situated in the heart of the Austrian Tyrol, a picturesque region renowned for its hospitality, the historic village of Mösern enjoys the best of both worlds: an idyllic setting boasting inspirational views over the Inn Valley, as well as easy access to Seefeld, the perfect winter playground.
Here, beneath a backdrop of jagged mountains, lie a wide range of walking paths, for all levels. You can explore the Tyrol’s outstanding scenery on a snowshoe hike; try your hand at ice-skating and curling; or, for a complete change, enjoy a day out to the fairy-tale city of Innsbruck, with its dramatic mountain backdrop and impressive Imperial Palace.

The Hotel Inntaler Hof is the perfect place from which to enjoy all this, and more, with the added bonus of a superb spa and first-rate cuisine. We have worked with English-speaking owners Stefan and Daniela Heidkamp for many years and can assure you of a very warm and genuine welcome here.
 

Our expert says

"The Inntaler Hof embodies the best of the Tyrol, and the views over the Inn Valley are the icing on the cake."

Winter activities

There’s no fixed itinerary, so take your pick of the activities as the mood takes you.
  • 142km in the Olympiaregion Seefeld
    Framed by the towering Wetterstein Mountains and enjoying far-reaching views from its privileged perch high on the Seefeld plateau, Mösern is a superbly scenic place to walk. The winter trails are suitable for all fitness levels; those in the village begin 200 metres from the hotel, while further options are just a short bus ride away (use your visitor’s card for free local travel).

    All trails are well signed, and the snow specially flattened to facilitate walking. In the detailed documentation we provide, we give an overview of our favourite options, including the following two routes:

    Mösern-Wildmoos circuit: 13km
    Starting from the centre of Mösern, this beautiful circular route initially heads westward, looping around Lake Möserer before entering the peaceful Wildmoos Valley. One of the highlights of the walk is the chance to call into the Wildmoosalm – this delightful mountain restaurant is renowned for its tasty Tyrolean dumpling soup and traditional Apfelstrudel (‘apple strudel’).

    Mösern to Seefeld: 3.5km
    This shorter route is a good leg-stretcher, exploring some of the forested land that lies between Mösern and Seefeld. For those keen for a longer walk, it’s possible to add a circuit of Lake Möserer at the beginning, and to return from Seefeld on foot rather than making use of the free local bus service.

  • Downhill skiing, cross-country skiing & more

    Downhill skiing – best for beginners & intermediates
    Mösern’s proximity to the highly regarded downhill resort of Seefeld – it’s no more than a 5-minute bus ride away – affords easy access to a wide selection of beginner and intermediate runs. There is also a small downhill slope in the village itself: conveniently located just opposite the ski school, it’s ideal for families and those learning to ski for the first time.

    Cross-country skiing
    Mösern offers access to an impressive 279km of cross-country skiing trails in the Olympiaregion Seefeld, primarily suited for intermediate and advanced skiers. Just a short walk from the hotel, Mösern's trails connect to a vast network surrounding Seefeld, renowned for hosting World Cup events, with free bus travel available using your visitor's card, although a trail pass is necessary.

    While the nearby terrain features steep paths more suited for experienced skiers, beginners are well-catered for with an excellent ski school and a variety of accessible trails on the Seefeld plateau. Popular trails include the 3km Nachtloipe, ideal for novices, the sunlit 3km Mösern trail for all skill levels, and the challenging 5km Wildmoos trail, which leads to a scenic mountain restaurant.

    Snowshoeing
    With their larger frames and impressive traction, snowshoes open up landscapes that are off-limits to most walkers, skiers and vehicles. A particularly exciting option from Mösern leads up the Brunschkopf, where you can pick up the ‘Ice Age Trail’ and hike to an altitude of 1,510 metres. Your reward? Glorious, almost 360-degree views…

    Ice-skating & curling
    There is an outdoor ice rink in Seefeld, beautifully situated by the pretty Seekirchl church. The rink is open daily and offers skate hire and once-weekly curling lessons (the latter are free with your visitor’s card but need to be booked up to 24 hours in advance – your hotel will be able to assist with this).

    Tobogganing
    The Seefeld region is home to a number of toboggan runs, with the closest being the 2.5-kilometre natural run from the Reitherjoch Alm (access is by bus and ski lift). Toboggans can be hired from the hotel.
    Beautiful trails around nearby Seefeld
  • Innsbruck & more

    Innsbruck
    Take the bus and train (pay locally for the latter) to Innsbruck, where we provide notes for a self-guided city walking tour. With the Dolomites to the south and the Tyrolean peaks to the north and west, this fairy-tale city boasts a splendid mountain panorama. Admire the Baroque façades of the houses lining Herzog Friedrich Strasse, and do not miss the Imperial Palace and the beautiful Goldenes Dachl ('Golden Roof'), an extraordinary Gothic bay window with 2,657 gilded copper tiles dating from the rule of Emperor Maximilian I.

    Rosshütte
    A favourite day out of ours is to head to Rosshütte. Sitting just below the Seefelder Joch peak, the views on a clear day are quite spectacular. Access is from Seefeld by the Standseilbahn, a funicular railway which whisks you from 1,230 to 1,760 metres. At the top, there is a self-service panoramic restaurant – choose to sit inside or, later in the season, enjoy the sunshine out on the terrace.

  • An ideal family destination
    Mösern and the Inntaler Hof make a particularly good choice for families. The hotel caters very well for children of all ages, with good-sized family rooms and apartments, as well as a kids’ club that offers plenty of indoor and outdoor fun – including painting, handicrafts and tobogganing – to all children over the age of three. (The club is open from Sunday-Friday during the main holiday period, over Christmas, New Year and in February.)

    Children over five can also benefit from downhill ski lessons at the village ski school, which is located 600 metres from the hotel and opposite a small downhill slope – where the children’s lessons are held, conditions permitting. The larger ski area around Seefeld is easily accessible, too – the lifts are just a few minutes’ bus ride away.
    Visit Innsbruck
  • Special events
    Enjoy a traditional Tyrolean Christmas Eve with a gala dinner (there are also lots of activities for children). New Year is marked with a candlelit gala dinner, followed by fireworks at midnight, and dancing until the early hours.

About Mösern

Perched above the Inn valley, Mösern (altitude: 1206m) is said to have the most hours of sunshine in the Tyrol. This small mountain village has just a handful of shops and a café. In contrast, Seefeld, 3km away, is considerably larger and more bustling, offering a wide range of shops, cafés and restaurants; a swimming pool complex; as well as discos and even a casino.

    If you are flying from outside Europe,  you may need to fly to an airport not listed here. To discuss onward connecting travel to the start of your holiday, please contact us.

    This list of alternative flight options should be used as a guide only, and you should check each airline’s website for current routes, frequency and schedules. Not all flights operate daily, and may not run for the entire season. You should also heed the latest flight arrival time and earliest flight departure time stated above, as it may not be possible to arrange connecting travel outside these times. Our expert reservations team will be happy to offer advice if you would prefer to fly via a different route to the one included in our standard arrangements. A supplement may be payable for other flights.

  • Choose a leisurely route on Austria’s NightJet sleeper train. Leaving London late morning on weekdays, you can reach Austria with just one change of train in Amsterdam. Enjoy dinner in this vibrant city before boarding the sleeper, then wake up refreshed in Austria. Have a quick coffee in Innsbruck before taking a local train followed by a short transfer to the hotel.

    On weekends when the direct London–Amsterdam Eurostar is not running, you can take a route via Brussels to Cologne, where you can have dinner by the Rhine before joining the sleeper.

    > More about 'by rail' prices

    We have based our prices (which include continental breakfast and a private 2-berth cabin with 2 bunk beds and a washbasin on the sleeper train) on the routes we recommend below, but our rail specialists can tailor the arrangements to suit you and provide a quotation.

    One alternative, for example, is to take high-speed trains to Zürich and stay overnight. The following morning, watch spectacular mountain scenery unfold as you travel through the Arlberg Pass into Austria. Another option would be to take the sleeper route to Austria, and return via Zürich.

FAQs

If you have any questions relating to this or any other Inntravel holiday, our friendly travel experts will be happy to help. You might also find our General FAQs section helpful.
  • They are two mattresses (each with separate bedding) on one large base. They are locally regarded to serve requests for both double and twin bedded rooms. Separate twin beds or traditional double beds with one large mattress are rare and cannot be guaranteed.
  • In the Alps, most hotels have a vegetarian menu. Please contact us for specific information about this particular hotel.
  • Living far from the capital ourselves, we know better than most that flying from London can be a bind, so we are very flexible with our travel arrangements. Call or email us, and one of the team will be happy to list the different options available to you, and any price implications.
  • Absolutely! We are experts in tailored rail travel. Making use of sleeper trains or stopovers in cities along the route, we can get you from London to virtually anywhere in mainland Europe. We can even make arrangements to Mallorca, Sicily and Norway with a combination of ferries and rail. Please contact us to discuss your plans.
  • Once you’ve decided on your exact itinerary (our travel experts will be happy to offer advice), you need to provide us with your party’s details, either by phone or via our booking form. At this point we also ask you to pay a deposit so that we can secure a room for you immediately on confirming availability with the hotel(s). If it turns out that we can’t secure the accommodation for the holiday you’ve requested, or offer an acceptable alternative, we’ll refund your deposit promptly and in full. After booking your accommodation and other key elements, we'll then book your travel (or you can do so if you’re making your own arrangements) and send you a Booking Confirmation and Invoice.

  • Yes, it’s something we insist on, even for holidays in the UK. The vast majority of holidays go smoothly, but when things go wrong, it can be expensive to put them right. Buying a new pair of walking boots after your suitcase is stolen mightn’t seem so bad, but the bill for being airlifted down from a mountain with a broken leg or flown home while still recovering from an illness or accident can incur a five or six-figure bill.

    Many insurers offer travel insurance (you can find details on our insurance page of a policy that you may like to consider if you are a UK resident), but you do need to make sure that you’re covered for medical emergencies – including falling ill with Covid-19 while on holiday – and repatriation. We also recommend that you are covered for other eventualities, such as cancellation and loss of luggage and passports.

    When you purchase a policy, be sure to check that it covers the activities you'll be doing on holiday and that it is adequate for your own individual needs.
  • It is your responsibility to ensure you are in possession of the correct travel documents, with the correct validity. If you’re a UK citizen, you need a full British passport to travel to Austria, but not a visa (please note, however, that a new travel authorisation system is being introduced). If you are a citizen of another country, you’ll need to check requirements with the national embassy or your own consulate.

    Current information regarding vaccinations and travel health advice for UK citizens can be found through the Travel Health Pro website. You must make sure you have adequate insurance cover for illness, accidents and repatriation (see the insurance question). You should also apply for a Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) if your EHIC has expired (if you have a still-valid EHIC, you can use this until it expires).
  • (Austrian) German is the most commonly spoken language. The currency is the Euro. Austrian time is GMT/UTC + 1. It uses Daylight Saving Time, so in summer is on BST + 1.
  • For information on the practicalities of travel now that the UK is no longer part of the European Union, visit www.gov.uk/visit-eu-switzerland-norway-iceland-liechtenstein.
  • The UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) provides up-to-date, country-by-country travel advice, as well as information on security, local laws, passports and visas for UK citizens.
