Pleasure, experience and relaxation

Few valleys are as rich in water treasures as the particularly pristine Defereggental in Osttirol. The Defereggental offers more opportunities for enjoyment, adventure and recreation than almost any other valley in the Alps. Turning off from the Iseltal, after a short ascent through the Schwarzachklamm gorge , you reach the first of the three communities in the Defereggental, the national park community of Hopfgarten i. D..

Between the rushing Schwarzach and the ascending slopes, the houses are lined up close together. The farmsteads nestled picturesquely in the mountainous landscape tower above, adorned with colorful flower in the summer months and thus contributing to the unmistakable townscape.

You can be sure that the hotel or guesthouses where you are staying and the balcony of your apartment or room on the farm are also full of fragrant flowers.

In addition to the imposing village church, there are unique chapels scattered throughout the municipality, which were built by the inhabitants of the neighboring farms and are still maintained and cared for by them today.

Summer in Hopfgarten i. D.

As only 6% of the municipal area of Hopfgarten i. D. in the Nationalpark Hohe Tauern is inhabited, you will find untouched and pristine nature here like hardly anywhere else. On the way to the summits of Riegel or Stanzling, you can follow in the footsteps of eagles, chamois and marmots. On the summit plateau of the Regenstein - at 2891 meters the highest mountain in Hopfgarten - the unforgettable view from the border mountain to the Villgratental can be enjoyed to the full.

In addition to the Glocknergruppe and the Venedigergruppe, the South Tyrolean and Lienz Dolomites and the Karinische Kamm can also be admired from the Regenstein. The gentle ridge of the nearby Firstkogel is also the geographical center of Osttirol. The generous natural landscapes around Hopfgarten offer numerous hiking opportunities, such as the themed trail “im Reich des Apollo” a beautiful butterfly - where you can take a leisurely break at the "Tröglis-Schupfen".

As wonderful as the mountain hikes may be, there are also plenty of opportunities for shorter and more leisurely walks in Hopfgarten. The water adventure trail along the Schwarzach offers unique encounters with nature, but also provides information about the use and dangers of water thanks to information boards. This tour also takes you past the beautifully designed “Auen Tümpfl”, a fish-rich biotope with a children's playground. Hopfgarten's many natural gems can also be reached via the hiking trails. For example, an exciting hike to the Glaurit waterfall is just as worthwhile as a quiet afternoon on the shores of the idyllic Geigensee lake. You can also explore the nature around Hopfgarten by bike on the Zwenewaldweg and Dölacher Almtal mountain bike trails.
