Sustainability Tourism

Alpbachtal green destination

Sustainability is a top priority in the tradition-steeped Alpbachtal. This starts with the arrival and continues with green events and local mobility to the regional product variety on site. As a pioneer for sustainable tourism, we are constantly implementing new measures and obtaining environmental certifications for our local businesses.

Certified businesses & green locations

The fact that environmentally conscious tourism is not a contradiction in terms is evident at all levels in Alpbachtal. The green marketing concept of the Congress Centre Alpbach already clearly illustrates our ambitions to become a green destination. We rely on common ground: the Alpbachtal businesses are also committed to environmental protection. Culinary delights, thermal renovations and charging stations for e-bikes and the like are particularly important. Fourteen accommodation establishments have already been awarded the Austrian Ecolabel certificate - and the trend is rising!

Regionalität, die man schmeckt

Die Alpbachtaler:innen wissen die heimischen Erzeugnisse zu schätzen. Kulinarische Produkte stehen in der idyllischen Ferienregion besonders hoch im Kurs. Die vielen ortsansässigen Betriebe und Landwirtschaften versorgen dich mit exquisiten Köstlichkeiten aus erster Hand. Zur Alpbachtaler Produktvielfalt gehören unter anderem pikante Spezialitäten wie Käse, Wurst und Speck sowie Brot. Obst, Gemüse und Eingemachtes, Bier und Hochprozentiges findest du ebenso in vielerlei Varianten.

Heimische Produkte, die den strengen Qualitätsanforderungen entsprechen, erkennst du sofort an der Kennzeichnung „Alpbachtal Q“. Das Alpbachtaler Qualitätssiegel zeichnet Erzeugnisse von regionalen Produzenten und Bauern aus, die bei der Herstellung auf Saisonalität, traditionelles Handwerk und Veredelung setzen.

Our Alpbachtal tip:

Look forward to regional shopping pleasure and pick up your favourite products directly where they are produced! Numerous farm-gate and village shops as well as groceries avoid long transport routes by selling home-made products. Nature also benefits from this.

green events

Culture, sport & nature sustainably combined

Alpbachtal is particularly known for living its culture at festivals and celebrations. Because sustainability is one of our seven guidelines as a tourism region, we have made it our goal to hold all Alpbachtal Tourismus events as green events.

Our "green" event recommendation: Join the e-bike Gauditour! At this sustainable happening, you pedal ambitiously and explore the most beautiful natural and panoramic spots in Alpbachtal on an electronic bike. As a delicious bonus, you will be spoiled with delicacies from the region along the way.

Worthwhile partnerships for the climate

Nowadays, anyone who wants to act sustainably is motivated to make concrete changes. In this respect, new projects concerning environmental protection are constantly being advanced in the Alpbachtal - and in collaboration. Within the framework of the Climate and Energy Model Region, or "KEM" for short, synergies are formed between the municipality, the tourism association and the mountain railways. Through these partnerships, the topic of sustainability and resource-saving procedures are to be further prioritised.
