About location

Few places in Tyrol have a history as closely tied to mountain farming as Marktgemeinde Fieberbrunn. Spread across the Pillerseetal, the settlement includes the hamlet of Pfaffenschwendt among meadows, woodland and working farms. Above it rises the Buchensteinwand, crowned by the Jakobskreuz, a monumental summit cross with accessible viewing spaces. The limestone summits of the Loferer and Leoganger Steinberge form the valley’s alpine skyline; Großes Hinterhorn is one of the notable peaks in this mountain group. Fieberbrunn also belongs to the Skicircus Saalbach Hinterglemm Leogang Fieberbrunn, linking its slopes with a major interconnected Austrian ski area. Alongside tourism, the area retains the distinctive pattern of Tyrolean farming settlements and alpine pastureland.

Built around a spring long associated with relief from fever, Marktgemeinde Fieberbrunn grew into a Tyrolean market town in the PillerseeTal. The Fieberbrunner Ache flows through the valley beneath the Kitzbühel Alps, and the Wildseeloder is among the area’s best-known summits. Fieberbrunn forms part of the Skicircus Saalbach Hinterglemm Leogang Fieberbrunn, a major interconnected ski area, while farms, woodland and steep slopes still define its immediate surroundings.

Tyrol
Region Tyrol

Tyrol combines an energetic alpine identity with an established urban culture in a way that reflects its position within the central Eastern Alps. Innsbruck, the regional capital on the River Inn, lies beneath the Nordkette range and brings imperial-era architecture into close contact with high mountain terrain. Its Golden Roof remains one of the city’s best-known historic landmarks, while the surrounding valleys connect settlements, ski areas and hiking country across the region.

Country Austria

Austria stretches from the Bohemian Massif along its northern edge to the Carnic Alps on the Italian border, encompassing high Alpine ranges and the Danube lowlands. The Danube links cities including Linz and Vienna, while the Grossglockner, at 3,798 metres, is the country’s highest mountain. Vienna developed for centuries as the seat of the Habsburg court, leaving imperial architecture around the Hofburg and Schönbrunn Palace. Salzburg is closely associated with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, who was born there in 1756. Alpine Tyrol, wine-growing areas east of Vienna and the lakes of Salzkammergut add markedly different regional identities.
