Hinterriss lies along the Rißbach in the Karwendel, where a narrow, wooded valley rises toward the pale limestone walls of the Northern Limestone Alps. This small settlement, part of the municipality of Vomp, is the Karwendel’s only permanently inhabited village, giving it a markedly different rhythm from Tyrol’s larger resort towns. Karwendel Nature Park, Austria’s largest nature park, extends across extensive high-mountain terrain, forests and alpine pastures. Naturparkhaus Hinterriss introduces the area’s geology, wildlife and long-standing alpine use.
