Innsbruck's beauty is due in large part to the gigantic mountains that loom over the city. In the winter it's a haven for skiers, but the summer brings many hiking opportunities and great views as well. We took a cable car to the top of one particular area that had a alpen botanical garden (complete with Edelweiss!). We hiked for over 8 hours enjoying great mountain views overlooking Innsbruck, the bobsled run for the olympics, and lots of cows. No hike is complete without a mid-day break that includes lunch and a beer at one of the many trail cafes. Hiking pictures here. The city pictures are here.
