Family and kids - family holidays in Hall in Tirol

Hiking, exploring, being amazed, playing and experiencing the natural surroundings. The Pirpmatzweg trail on the Vögelsberg offers all this. It is an interactive play and themed trail for all the family. On 12 stations and using themed play installations, the myths and legends of the Vögelsberg, that is stories about the ‘birdy’ and the giant, are brought to life for young and old alike. The route is about 2 kilometres in length. Walking time with children, not factoring in any time for playing, is about 90 minutes.

The Kugelwald on the Glungezer, an adventure realm in Tyrol which features the only outdoor wooden ball track in the world, is a place to exercise and enjoy fun and creative activities in a natural section of woodland. Much like a roller-coaster, the wooden balls roll on the Swiss stone pine tracks from tree to tree. As well as jumps and steep sections, there is a hollowed out tree stump, a ball lift and lots of elements to create yourself for these speedy Swiss stone pine balls. Being together and having fun are the order of the day here. On an area spanning 8000 m², this mountain adventure realm has spectacular wooden ball tracks, a large tree-house, a do-it-yourself area, a relaxation area, sound features and a forest classroom. Entry to the Kugelwald on the Glungezer is free for adults and children. There is a small charge for the hire of play balls.

A trip to the mine is particularly fascinating for children. Even the journey up on the Grubenbahn is an adventure. You then follow in the footsteps of the workers who mined silver and copper here over 500 years ago. And you glean interesting details about the social and financial development of Europe. The biggest silver mine of the Middle Ages is one of the most important sights in Tyrol and is great as an excursion destination when the weather isn’t great, and even in the heat of the summer. The mountain is a constant 12 degrees Celsius and it doesn’t rain down here!
