Hiking Easy, Moderate, Difficult, Severe
In most mountain ranges on Earth you'd have to work hard to access high and wild terrain, but in the Stubai you can get to it after a comfortable night spent in Innsbruck city centre. The valley itself is accessed via both a bus and a (very scenic) tram, and, once there, there's an excellent bus network to ferry you around the various parts of the area.
The Stubai valley contains 4 ski areas (Stubai Gletscher, Elferbahn, Schlick 2000 and Mieders) and in this guidebook we've got at least one hike from each of them, as well as a beautiful trip up to a typically welcoming Tirolian hut. The hikes in here vary greatly in length, from the short stroll from Mieders to Maria Waldrast monastery through to the long and challenging trip up Rinnenspitze.
No less than 4 of the famous Stubai Seven Summits are listed in here, but if you want to do all 7 of them then we've got them covered in detail here - /discover/guidebook/170
The fact that 4 of the 7 can be done as day trips just goes to show how excellent the access is here - you can enjoy the sights and sounds of Innsbruck city and pick your Stubai hiking days. Alternatively you could choose to stay in one of the Stubai's charming and historic villages.
Whichever option you choose, high quality and low commitment hiking trips await!
