Day 7: Innergschlöß and the Hohe Tauern National Park

Last updated: 23.03.2026 Reading time: 6 Minute(s)

The seventh day of my Austria trip took me to Innergschlöß, one of the most beautiful alpine villages in Europe and to the Hohe Tauern National Park, a nature reserve of breathtaking beauty.

The drive to Innergschlöß was an experience in itself. The narrow road wound through an impressive mountain landscape, past rushing streams and picturesque alpine meadows. When I arrived at Innergschlöß, I felt as if I had entered another world. The village, surrounded by the mighty peaks of the Alps, was a picture of pure idyll. The traditional alpine huts and the panorama of the surrounding mountains created an almost fairy-tale backdrop.

I decided to spend the day with a hike through the Hohe Tauern National Park. The park, known for its unspoiled nature and biodiversity, offered numerous hiking trails that led through forests, across alpine meadows and along crystal-clear mountain lakes. The tranquility and natural beauty of the park were overwhelming. I watched marmots playing in the sun and listened to the singing of the birds – a true concert of nature.

One of the highlights was the visit to the Venedigerhaus, from where you have a spectacular view of the Großvenediger, one of the highest mountains in Austria. The view from here was simply breathtaking and conveyed a sense of grandeur and peace.

After returning to Innergschlöß, I treated myself to a meal at one of the village's small guesthouses. Over a traditional Tyrolean Gröstl and a glass of local beer at the popular "Venedigerhaus Innergschlöß", I reflected on the impressions of the day.

The day in Innergschlöß and in the Hohe Tauern National Park was a wonderful blend of natural beauty, tranquility and traditional culture. It was a day that once again made the uniqueness and richness of the Austrian alpine landscape abundantly clear to me. With many unforgettable impressions, I returned to my accommodation, ready for the adventures of the coming days.
