Several hiking trails run through the district of Imming; a cycling loop also gives specific turning points there. When planning your trip, you can first consider whether you are more interested in a hiking route with a stated distance and elevation gain, a trail with a climb toward Säulingerhof, or the cycling loop. There is also a historical reference that mentions Imming together with Reith in a codex from the year 976. If you are looking for a hotel in Imming, this selection can help you decide what to focus on during your stay.
Imming’s History and Settlement Pattern
Imming and Reith are mentioned together in a codex from the year 976, attributed to Archbishop Friedrich I of Salzburg (958–991). The year gives this joint mention a clear point of reference in time. Imming is also considered one of two original hamlets that grew into larger settlements. The reference in the codex and the description of the hamlet thus offer two different ways to place the town in its historical context.
Hiking Trails Through Imming
The “Bruck valley walk” hiking trail leads through meadows to the district of Imming and continues through Imming toward Schlitters. The route is 5.7 kilometres long, with 65 metres of ascent and 65 metres of descent. After passing through Imming, it reaches the Zilleruferweg before the Ziller Bridge. The route can therefore be described by its distance, elevation gain and loss, and stated course, without treating these details as an indication of walking time.
Hiking Trail No. 8 also passes through meadows to Imming. From there, the route climbs toward Säulingerhof; on the return, it passes through Imming again on the way back to the starting point. Here, the sequence of the climb and return is a different point of reference from the Bruck valley walk. When comparing the described hikes, you can use these differences in their routes to guide your choice.
The “Bruck – Schlitters – Strass – Bruck” route also passes the Wetterkreuz heading toward Imming, then continues to the Zilleruferweg. The riverside trail is therefore mentioned in more than one hiking description, while the Wetterkreuz is an additional landmark on this route. When planning, it is worth noting each route’s name: the names and courses distinguish the tours, even where destinations such as Imming or the Zilleruferweg appear more than once.
Cycling Loop and Navigation
On the “Road bike 13 Zillergrund reservoir” cycling loop, the route turns left in Imming at kilometre 9.4; after a further 50 metres, there is another turn. These are specific details to help you navigate the tour. As road conditions and signage may change, take current signs into account when planning. In the wider regional area, the cycling loop follows the L 294 for 3.0 kilometres toward Bruck/Imming.
