Overview

Greetings from Tyrol's high plateau

For a long time, the sporting major events determined the rhythm and the name of the Seefeld region. Three times, in 1964, 1976, and 2012, the Olympic Winter Games took place on Tyrol's high plateau, making the region an Olympic region. In 2022, it was time for a new name – the region became known as Seefeld - Tyrol's high plateau, because the area, with its five villages Seefeld, Leutasch, Mösern, Reith, and Scharnitz, has so much more to offer. Winter sports and international hospitality still belong to its identity, but it cannot be reduced to just that. Summer, relaxation, and enjoyment are also among its strengths. It also does not fit into the typical Tyrolean categories of mountain and summit worlds or lovely valley landscapes. The Seefeld region lies in a unique intermediate world: on a vast high plateau gently framed by impressive mountains and 1,200 meters above sea level and the Tyrolean valleys.

1,200 meters above everyday life

In the Seefeld region, the landscape opens up from the Zugspitze and the Wetterstein mountains down south, providing space for natural diversity, many hours of sunshine, and true joy of life. One step out of the front door is enough to find oneself in the midst of it all: between mountains and valleys, forests and meadows, sports and relaxation. Life and vacationing on Tyrol's high plateau is simply more enjoyable. The trails with their wide and deep views begin right at the accommodation, and everywhere you can immediately enjoy the spaciousness of the open plateau. There are hardly any constricting valleys or shade; at 1,200 meters, plenty of sunshine and fresh mountain air are guaranteed.

1 plateau. 5 places. 1000 adventures.

Seefeld, Leutasch, Mösern, Reith and Scharnitz: five idyllic villages belong to Tyrol's unique high plateau. Each village tells its own stories, holds special treasures and delights with a variety of adventures. The range of sports and leisure activities is virtually limitless. In every season, exciting experiences and soothing relaxation await. Nature and enjoyment meet 365 days a year with sporting and cultural activities, as well as diverse events.
