After arriving individually by train or car, you will meet your mountain guide in the heart of Innsbruck's medieval old town, stroll together to the golden-shining roof and discover the mysterious "Black Men" in the Court Church during a short guided tour – In the evening you will sit together for a welcome dinner: In your small group of a maximum of 12 people you will get to know the other families properly and can end the day in a relaxed manner.

Today is a warm-up. A bus will take you to Tulfes, where the Glungezer lift will whisk you up to 2,000 meters, the starting point of today's scenic hike. You'll hike along the famous Zirbenweg (Swiss Stone Pine Trail), through one of Europe's largest Swiss stone pine forests, to the Boschebenhütte mountain hut without breaking a sweat. There, a traditional Tyrolean snack and homemade cakes await you for a relaxing break. Along the way, you'll enjoy breathtaking views down into the Inn Valley and of the jagged Karwendel mountain range. From there, the trail continues to the Patschalm alpine pasture, before you can either hike back down or take the gondola down to the valley.

From the old town, you'll be transported to the heart of the mountains in just a few minutes: The futuristic Hungerburg funicular, designed by star architect Zaha Hadid, takes you from the city center up to the Hungerburg, from where the Nordkette cable car carries you up to the Seegrube at 1,905 meters – a thrilling contrast between city life and the rugged mountain landscape. Together with your hiking guide, you'll discuss whether you feel ready for the more technically challenging Julius-Pock-Steig trail, or whether you'd prefer to conserve your energy and take the leisurely route via Rauschbrunnen to Hungerburg. And because several cozy mountain huts along the way invite you to stop for refreshments, the hike also becomes a delightful culinary experience.

The day begins in a completely relaxed manner: You take the train to Seefeld, and while you enjoy the view from the window, your luggage is already on its way to your next hotel in Leutasch via shuttle. This way you can start your day carefree. From Seefeld, the trail leads you into the Wildmoos area, a nature reserve with tranquil moorland, light forests, and constantly surprising views. The destination is the Brunschkopf viewing platform, which rewards you with a panorama that will take your breath away: the Wetterstein and Karwendel mountains, and the entire Seefeld plateau lie at your feet – the perfect moment for a family photo. The loop is considered moderately difficult – just right for a day trip, without pushing yourself to your limits, but with enough variety to keep even teenagers entertained. Once you arrive at your next accommodation in Leutasch, you can relax by the hotel's own pool.

Today your group will experience one of the most impressive sections of the entire week: From Leutasch, the trail leads you directly into the Leutasch Ghost Gorge – on modern steel walkways you'll glide high above the roaring, turquoise-shimmering Ache river, while rock faces tower up on either side. This is exactly the moment the teenagers have been waiting for all week: water, rock, and a bit of a thrill – and as a bonus, you'll cross the border from Austria to Germany. Through the gorge you continue your hike to the historic Mittenwald with its colorful Lüftlmalerei (fresco paintings), where your luggage is already waiting in your new accommodation and all that's left to do is: arrive and put your feet up!

After the adrenaline rush of the Geisterklamm gorge, treat yourself to a day without a fixed itinerary. If you haven't had enough of that tingling sensation in your legs, head on to the high ropes course at Isarhorn: There, 200 m² of climbing area and a roughly 300 m long high ropes course await you, with routes for beginners and adrenaline junkies alike. As a reward, the Isar slide awaits afterwards – the perfect finale for anyone who wants to really let loose one last time. Alternatively, a stroll through the picturesque old town of Mittenwald, accompanied by an ice cream or coffee on one of the many sun terraces, offers a well-deserved break.

As a grand finale, one of the most scenic stages of the week awaits you today. Right at the start, the path leads to the Mittenwald Rock Garden, a fascinating natural monument that impressively tells the story of the power of the Ice Age. Afterwards, the trail winds its way through shady forests and paths up to the picturesque Lautersee lake. The crystal-clear water invites you to a wonderfully refreshing dip. Right on the shore, the cozy Lautersee-Alm mountain hut offers a welcome opportunity for a break with regional specialties and a breathtaking view of the surrounding mountains. Refreshed, the hike continues to the impressively situated Elmau Castle, which has already hosted the international G7 summit. On the final stretch, you'll reach the Roman trade route Via Raetia. The informative panels along the way bring the past to life – thus, the hike impressively combines nature, exercise, and culture. Finally, you reach the small, idyllic village of Klais, where the tour ends directly at the train station and you begin your return journey to Innsbruck.

All good things must come to an end – with countless postcard images and unforgettable family and group moments in your mind, you bid farewell to your mountain guide and begin your journey home. If you still haven't had your fill of the mountains, you have the option of extending your stay in Innsbruck and exploring the many other attractions the region has to offer.
