Alpine Studies Programme

Portrait

Mittenwald, the highest climatic health resort in the Bavarian Alps, means relaxation for body and soul. You'll find our youth hostel just 4 kilometers from Mittenwald. We are the ideal starting point to discover the breathtaking landscape. As an "Alpine Study Place", we offer you a wide range of activities with our pedagogically supervised adventure programs in nature.

Breathtaking at any time of year
Whether summer or winter, there is plenty to experience here at any time of year:
Are you a fan of the white splendor? Then Mittenwald is the right place for you. The Kranzberg is perfect for ski and snowboard beginners. There are other ski areas for all levels of difficulty in the surrounding area.

When the mountains are covered in fresh green again, you can hike past peaceful alpine pastures, rugged rocks and rushing streams. A special tip: the Leutasch Gorge adventure hiking trail.

Would you like to enjoy something cultural? Always an eye-catcher: the Lüftl paintings in the village. Learn all about the traditional craft at the violin-making museum.

For all those who want to discover the Alps in detail, the "Alpine Study Place" has the right programs and modules.
Move mountains, test your limits.

Vacations, seminars and the beauty of the Alps
Everyone is welcome here: School classes, sports and music groups, nature enthusiasts, families.

The wonderful mountain air will also get your spirit going. Our conference rooms and, of course, the fantastic surroundings ensure successful seminars.

End the day in our cozy Ganghofer-Stube, in the winter garden or on the large panoramic terrace. Our sauna awaits you in winter.

Do you want to fall in love with the beauty of the Alps?

The team at Mittenwald Youth Hostel looks forward to welcoming you!
