Time for mountains, sunshine and more.
A summer holiday in Soelden in Tyrol’s Oetztal. Memorable days in the sporting paradise of the Alps. There is the myth that Soelden queued twice when god distributed natural beauty. There can be no other explanation as to why so many superlatives of the holiday destination Tyrol can be found at the back end of the Oetztal. The rest of Tyrol is secretly envious that the highest and most beautiful mountains (the Wildspitze of course!) can be found in the Oetztal Alps. The largest summer glacier skiing resort can be found in Oetztal and the route there goes directly past the apartment-B&B Viktoria Soelden. Where can you find the highest village in Austria? It can be found at the back end of Oetztal and is called Obergurgl. Where is the Stuibenfall, the highest waterfall in the country? In Oetztal. And where is Austria’s most modern and beautiful thermal bath centre? In Laengenfeld in Oetztal (the new Tyrol-thermal batch AQUA Dome in Laengenfeld)!
And some more superlatives for the record: The overall Oetztaler Alp’s mountain range has about 250 three thousand metre high mountains, 60 of which are more than 3,400 metre high.
And right in the middle of this world full of superlatives and grand beauty you will find the apartment-hotel Viktoria Soelden. We take all of this Oetztaler grandeur fairly philosophically. We really appreciate all this natural beauty and know we can offer our guests the best – whether you come alone and want to hike and climb the mountains or if you arrive with all your family to spend an unforgettable holiday in the mountains. Active relaxations, a zest for life in the most beautiful high-alpine landscape and the fresh air of the mountains.
Our Loeple Alm: The Loeple Alm is one of the oldest “Almhuette” in the Oetztaler Alps and is located about 20 minutes to the west of the Gaislachkogl middle station at the famous European hiking route no. 5. During summer we are looking forward to all the visiting hikers and are happy to give you more tips for further destinations from our sun terrace.
