Plan your holiday

Hiking in Tux is superb!


… and it isn’t just the miller’s delight


For anyone who wants to devote their holiday to hiking, the Jakober is just right. Our holiday home from home is located at the foot of the Hintertux Glacier, in the middle of Zillertal’s high mountain nature park. Welcome to a hiking paradise!


The daring can head out on a glacier tour straight away, or scale one of the surrounding summits. Those who like things to be more leisurely might prefer to take things easier. On a leisurely family or Alpine pasture hike explore the dreamy natural landscape and enjoy a refreshment stop in one of the inviting mountain lodges. All options are available to you in Tux.


Ambitious mountaineers and pleasure hikers are very well catered for too. On 350 kilometres of hiking paths you will also find exactly what makes you happy. You can set out straight from the threshold of our 4-star abode. Breathe in the pure mountain air, sample the crystal-clear spring water, gaze at the wonders of nature and replenish your energy stores for what awaits after your hiking holiday in Tux.

Out and about with expert hikers


Off your own bat or accompanied by a professional? You choose. Explore the surrounding area on foot yourself or join in one of around 230 guided hikes in the Nature Park that are available between May and October. Some 30 themes are explored and gone into detail as part of excursions in Zillertal’s natural surroundings. While walking, guests and locals get to see the area around Tux from a new perspective.


In addition to hikes in Tux, as part of the Nature Park’s summer programme presentations and excursions based  on all topical issues and selected cultural themes are available. Participation in guided hikes is free to guests staying in Pension Jakober. Online registration in the hotel or right in the Nature Park is all you need to do to be there. Enjoy a holistic experience of nature!
