Welcome Innsbruck - Winter 2017/18

W E L C O M E 95 of Tyrol’s oldest and most atmospheric pedestrian areas. Be it after an endorphin-laden day on alpine, cross-country or touring skis, a snappy ride on a toboggan or a tranquil ride in a carriage, after a meditative hike through snowy worlds, or intimate hours of wellness pampering – at the end of the day, or a long time before it, for that matter, the short paths lead you to the pedestrian area. The forty-two boutiques, offering more than five hundred different brands, as well as the twenty-five cafés and restaurants, which leave no culinary desire unfulfilled and offer delicacies of the highest order, push the love of the special and extraordinary into the foreground. The businesses, most of them family-owned for gener- ations, put particular emphasis on a special customer experience, with service quality being the top priority. This way of thinking perfectly corresponds with the concept of the Nordic Lifestyle, which is based on the philosophy of regarding a holiday as a holistic experience for body, mind and soul. As a winter sport des- tination rich in tradition, the region combines state-of-the-art offerings with an organically grown infrastructure and belongs to the chosen circle of the Best of the Alps, the exclusive holiday destinations in the Alpine region. The membership in this sophisticated association is an acknowl- edgment of naturally grown structures, living culture, sport, events and flourishing tourism. For more than twenty years, Seefeld, beside eleven other chosen areas in the five Alpine countries, has been serving as an ambassador for the Alpine region. G R E A T E N T E R T A I N M E N T Apart from the everyday programme, which every guest and holi- day-maker experiences individually according to taste and which cov- ers the whole spectrum of sporting and leisure activities, Seefeld offers a whole series of special events. Annually, for instance, hundreds of in- ternational music fans come together in the region every December to get into the mood for the upcoming Christmas season, this year with Saso Avsenik and his Oberkrainer, the Trenkwalders, the Duo Harfonie and superstar Hansi Hinterseer. In January 2018, Seefeld once more will become the Nordic skiing Mecca with thousands of enthusiastic spectators. With a new competition mode, the Nordic Combined Triple will be even more exciting. There will also be quite a buzz in March when superstar Andreas Gab- alier transforms the Klosterbräu Arena into a seething cauldron. Already in recent years, he delighted thousands of spectators with his stunning show. This and much more you are invited to see, hear and experience. See you in Seefeld. W
