This not only allows guests to enjoy the Tirolean countryside in an environmentally friendly way, but also to be wonderfully flexible, especially if the starting and finishing points of a hike are not the same. Thanks to excellent connections to the Verkehrsverbund Tirol (VVT) public transport network and Austrian Federal Railways (\u00d6BB) trains, hikers can disembark close to the starting point of their re-spective tour and hop back on the bus or train once they reach their chosen destination. What lies between is the unforgettable experience of a hike through unique landscapes dominated by the Tirolean mountains, safe in the knowledge that you don\u2019t have to return to the starting point to pick up your car but can simply make the relaxed journey home by public transport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Guaranteed quality: selected hikes with public transport<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Guests who opt to travel by public transport will find selected hiking suggestions in many Tirolean regions that are easily accessible by public transport. These \u201cpublic transport hikes\u201d fulfil several criteria to ensure the quality and thus overall positive experience of a hike with public transport. Criteria include, for example, a maximum waiting time of 60 minutes at the start and end points, transport connections from morning to evening and a maximum 15 minute walk from the bus stop to the start and end points of the hike. Tour suggestions are directly linked to the timetable and route planner, and tickets can be pur-chased quickly and easily in the online ticket shop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hiking recommendations with bus and train<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>High above Innsbruck on the Zirbenweg Trail \u00b7 Innsbruck Region<\/strong><br><em>Starting point: Igls Patscherkofel \u00b7 Finish: Tulfes Glungezerbahn cable car valley station<\/em><br><em>7 km \u00b7 200 m elevation difference \u2191 \u00b7 100 m \u2193 \u00b7 2.5 hours<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hike alongside the oldest Swiss stone pine forest in Europe on the Zirbenweg Trail high above Innsbruck \u2013 with marvellous vantage points and views of Innsbruck and the Inntal Valley.
