View of the Inn River

Highlight • Viewpoint

Inn - Three Countries - One River
The Inn River connects Switzerland, Austria, and Germany. It rises in the Swiss Engadine, flows through parts of Austria and Bavaria, and flows into the Danube near Passau. Its catchment area, at over 26,000 square kilometers, is the second largest in Austria.
Numerous settlements have developed along its course. The Inn River is the central lifeline of these regions.
The Inn River rises at an altitude of 2,484 meters in the Swiss canton of Graubünden at the Lunghin Pass near Maloja, near Lake Lunghin. From there, it plunges as a small mountain stream almost 700 meters into the valley, where it flows into Lake Sils. On its further course, the Inn flows through Lake Silvaplana/Champère and Lake Moritz. The Flaz River flows into the Inn near the municipality of Samedan. This tributary carries large amounts of suspended solids from the Bernina Massif into the Inn.
In the Lower Engadine, the Inn flows through several gorges with a significantly steeper gradient. Due to the diversion of large portions of its runoff for energy generation, the wild river has regained the character of a small mountain stream in places.

Émile Béthouart Footbridge

Highlight • Bridge

Emile Béthouart Footbridge, Innsbruck
Streets and squares are often named after important figures who have contributed to the common good of their fellow citizens. Younger Innsbruck residents, in particular, are probably puzzled to learn why the footbridge, which leads from the northern Hofgarten across the Inn River to St. Nicholas, is named after Marie Emile Antoine Béthouart (1889-1982).
Béthouart, a French general, was Commander-in-Chief of the French occupation forces in Austria after World War II and High Commissioner of the French occupation forces in North Tyrol and Vorarlberg from 1946 to 1950.
He always emphasized that he had come not as an occupier, but as a liberator, and advocated for an independent Austrian state. He had signs with the inscription "Autriche, pays ami" (Austria, friendly country) placed along the borders.
He was highly commended for allowing the traditional rifle associations to participate in the Corpus Christi procession as an honor guard "with rifles" as early as 1947, "according to old Tyrolean traditions." In 1950, he even laid a wreath in front of the Andreas Hofer Memorial on the Bergisel. This despite the fact that Andreas Hofer fought against the French in 1809.
The Liberation Memorial on Innsbruck's Landhausplatz, which, with the inscription PRO LIBERTATE AUSTRIAE MORTUIS, commemorates all those who died for Austria's freedom, is also his initiative.
In 1960, General Béthouart received the Grand Decoration of Honor with Star for his services to the Republic of Austria. In 2003, the Innsteg Bridge was ceremoniously named after him by prominent figures and honorary formations from Austria and France.

The Hungerburgbahn was designed by the famous architect Zaha Hadid. It should remind of the organic forms of a glacier. In addition, the Innsbruck Bergisel ski jump comes from her pen. The Hungerburgbahn transports bicycles.

View of Innsbruck from Hungerburg

Highlight • Viewpoint

Yes, nice view. It's worth it. But whoever is here drives or hikes in the region above to one of the alpine pastures!

Innsbruck Old Town

Highlight • Historical Site

Directly from the demanding alpine pass in the middle of the charming old town of Innsbruck, where you can enjoy your cycling holiday in peace and still with a great view of the Alps. Directly on the Inn, the view (also in the Mariahilfstrasse) very nice. Sit outside and enjoy the evening in good weather - how could a road bike tour end better?
