One of the only reasons I stopped in Innsbruck was to take the tram to the top of the Alps. For…read moreyears I've heard how beautiful Innsbruck is and that it's a must stop when in Austria.
I arrived on a Sunday. Little did I know, everything's closed on Sundays. After checking into the hotel, my husband and I walked straight over to the cable car only to see that it was closed for maintenance. The Innsbruck cable car takes you from the city center to the top of the Nordkette mountain for spectacular views. Since it was closed, there was no one to ask if there were other ways up...it was a bit of a let down, so we just walked back to town and had lunch.
