Jochberg: Cross-country skiing, trails and culture

Plan cross-country skiing and tours

From the centre of Jochberg, well-maintained cross-country ski trails lead directly through the region. Availability and trail grooming can vary with the season. If cross-country skiing is a key part of your travel plans, check current conditions before making arrangements.

The moderately difficult mountain hike to Sintersbach Waterfall is a 9.3 km loop and takes about four hours to walk. The distance, estimated time and difficulty rating provide practical guidance for planning your day. Check current trail conditions before setting out.

The Jochberg Fountain Trail passes seven historic fountains. The Jochberg Museum Trail gives visitors the opportunity to learn more about local culture and traditions at Jochberg’s museums. The trails therefore have different focuses: one follows a route past historic fountains, while the other explores the culture and traditions presented in the museums.

Culture and mining

According to the Tyrolean monument inventory as of 23 June 2026, the Catholic Parish Church of St Wolfgang and its cemetery in Jochberg are protected monuments. The Mariae Heimsuchung pilgrimage chapel, also known as the Jochbergwald Chapel, is protected as well. For a culture-focused itinerary, you can include these distinct named sites: a parish church with a cemetery and a pilgrimage chapel.

At the Kupferplatte Show Mine, the restored mine train takes visitors 150 metres into the tunnel. A guide explains various mining methods, tools and tunnel facilities. The ride and the explanations offer two specific ways to explore mining: travelling into the tunnel and learning about its working methods and facilities.

More activities and finding accommodation

The Alte Wacht archery course has a short loop of about 1 km with nine animal targets; equipment rental is available. This short loop is considerably different in length from the 9.3 km mountain hike to the waterfall.

Jochberg Forest Swimming Pool has a solar-heated 25-metre pool and a toddlers’ pool with a slide. It also has a 3,500 m² sunbathing lawn, a beach volleyball court, table tennis and various play equipment. The pool operates seasonally. If you plan to visit, take its seasonal opening period into account.

When looking for accommodation in Jochberg, you can start by deciding which of these activities you want to shape your trip. Cross-country skiing depends on seasonal availability and trail grooming; for the mountain hike, check current trail conditions. The Fountain Trail, Museum Trail and show mine offer different focuses from the tours, while the swimming pool operates seasonally. Then compare accommodation based on your own daily plans and the activities you intend to enjoy during your stay.
