When to go to Innsbruck?
Mountains close off the view at the end of almost every street in Innsbruck, and the Golden Roof glitters above the arcaded old town where emperors once watched the square. The Hafelekar cable car carries you from the centre to a bare alpine ridge in minutes. Between the imperial rooms of the Hofburg and the Bergisel ski jump, the city moves easily from court history to mountain sport.
