Day 1

Hopfgarten im Brixental

Hello there and welcome to the Alps! We’ll pick you up at Worgl Train Station (included transfer, baby!) and once we’ve all set down our bags at Contiki Haus Schöneck, we’ll kick off the trip officially with a welcome meeting conducted by your Trip Manager. After that, we’ll tuck into an included dinner – made fresh on-site with local ingredients. After dinner, we'll head off for a gentle sunset hike to mark the start of our adventure.

Bike Ride & BBQ

Jump on a bike & head out for a fully guided tour through picture-perfect Austrian mountain scenery. In a region that is all about the outdoors, this is the perfect way to take in the fresh alpine air, waterfalls, mountain streams & meadows. Once you've worked up an appetite, there's a BBQ lunch of Austrian wurst & kraut salad to finish.

We’ll start early this morning as we treat ourselves to more of the alps. Next stop? Haiming…

Here in Haiming, you can choose to do whatever you like. But we reckon you’d wanna experience some heart-pounding action with white water rafting followed by included picnic lunch.

Next up, we’ll make our way to Innsbruck, where you’ll have some free time to explore the city and grab a bite to eat.

Back in Haus Schöneck, you’ll have plenty of things to dream about tonight…

Whether you take our complimentary transfer to Worgl or make your own way to your next destination, it's time to say goodbye to your new friends and Hopfgarten (which feels like a home away from home now, right?) Don't worry though, once you've swapped contact deets with your new Contiki crew, there's bound to be a new adventure on the horizon soon.

FAQs

  • A modular trip means fellow travellers will join and leave at various locations. There’ll be some goodbyes, sure, but there’ll also be plenty of hellos with new like-minded travellers.

  • At the start of the trip, there's a transfer from Worgl Train Station to Haus Schoneck, departing at 4pm. If you're flying in, we recommend flying into Munich, Innsbruck or Salzburg and then taking a train to Worgl.

    From Munich Airport (Munchen Flughafen):
    Make your way to the Zentrum Bereich (Central Area) where you can buy a ticket at the train counter for Worgl. Take the S-Bahn (subway S8) to München Ost - approx. 15 minutes' journey time. At München Ost, change platforms & take the fast train direct to Wörgl (about 1 hour). Train schedules can be found on the Bahn website.

    From Innsbruck Airport (Flughafen):
    Take the shuttle bus to the main train station (Bahnhof). You can buy tickets from the ticket machine at the bus stop and then validate it once you're on the bus. From Innsbruck train station, take a train to Wörgl. You can book tickets online, through the app, or from the red ticket machines at the station. Train schedules can be found on the ÖBB website.

    From Salzburg Airport (Flughafen):
    Take the shuttle bus to the main train station (Bahnhof). From Salzburg train station, take the train to Wörgl. You can book tickets online, through the app, or from the red ticket machines at the station. Train schedules can be found on the ÖBB website.

  • Your Trip Manager will advise you on who you’ll share your room with. On this trip, you’ll stay in a multi-share room with other travellers of the same sex.

  • Our trips are short & sweet (and loaded with fun activities). That’s why we don’t offer pre or post trip accommodation. 

  • You’ll need a moderate level of fitness for this trip since you’ll be hiking, biking and rafting.

    The sunset hike on day 1 is about 5km and has 250m of elevation.

    The bike ride on Day 2 is about 25 kms long, through valleys and some steep ascents. But you can always take it at your own pace. Paragliding has a 115kg (255 lbs) weight limit, but it’s not physically strenuous.

    On day 3, you must be able to swim to participate in the white-water rafting, but it is beginner friendly.

  • You'll need to able to swim if you're taking part in the white water rafting experience on day 3. Don't worry though. If you can't swim, you can still explore the alpine town of Haiming while you wait, and then join the visit to Innsbruck afterwards.

  • Your Trip Manager will endeavour to cater for specific dietary requirements where possible. Vegetarianism, lactose intolerance, and gluten intolerance will be catered for in most instances.

It is, however, your personal responsibility to ensure that you do not ingest any foods to which you are allergic.  

  • The alps are an incredible mountain range stretching across 8 Alpine countries: Monaco, France, Switzerland, Italy, Liechtenstein, Germany, Austria, and Slovenia. Perfect for skiing, biking or hiking!
