Simply beautiful – Surprisingly charming

Holidays in Reith

The cosy mountain village of Reith is located at an altitude of 1,130 metres in the south-east of the Region Seefeld, directly on the old Roman road at the foot of the mighty Reither Spitze. The spectacular Karwendelbahn railway connects this idyllic peaceful village with Seefeld, Scharnitz and the provincial capital of Innsbruck in just a few minutes. Around Reith, a panorama trail, a culture trail and a wild bee trail offer an invitation to discover and explore, but there are also wonderful hiking trails into the Karwendel Nature Park with the Reither Spitze and Nördlinger Hütte.

A warm welcome to Reith and Tirols Hochplateau!
