Imming: Hiking Trails and Local History
Accommodation in Imming
If you are looking for accommodation in Imming, the trails through the village can provide a practical point of reference when choosing where to stay. The Bruck valley walk and Hiking Trail No. 8 both pass through Imming, but then head in different directions: one continues towards Schlitters, while the other climbs uphill towards Säulingerhof. The Ziller riverside trail and a historical reference to the village provide additional points of orientation.
Hiking trails and their waypoints
The “Bruck valley walk” passes through meadows to the district of Imming and continues through it towards Schlitters. After passing through Imming, the Ziller riverside trail is reached before the Ziller bridge. The route is 5.7 km long and includes 65 m of ascent and 65 m of descent. The distance, elevation gain and waypoints provide different reference points for planning your day: the figures describe the extent of the route, while the meadows, the direction towards Schlitters and the Ziller riverside trail show the sequence along the way.
Hiking Trail No. 8 also passes through meadows to Imming, then climbs uphill towards Säulingerhof. On the return to the starting point, it passes through the district again. The difference lies in the named waypoints: for the Bruck valley walk, these include the distance, elevation gain and the Ziller riverside trail before the bridge; for Trail No. 8, the climb towards Säulingerhof and the return passage through Imming serve as points of orientation. This makes it possible to distinguish the two routes by their specific course.
Another route, “Bruck - Schlitters - Strass - Bruck,” passes the Wetterkreuz towards Imming and then continues to the Ziller riverside trail.
Local history
An early historical reference is the 976 codex of Salzburg Archbishop Friedrich I (958–991), in which Imming is mentioned together with Reith. Imming is also considered one of the two original hamlets that grew into larger settlements. A hamlet is a small settlement; this classification describes Imming as part of an early settlement development. The two perspectives differ: the codex mentions Imming and Reith together on a specific date, whereas the classification as a hamlet concerns the transition to larger settlements.
Travel by bus
The timetable, valid from 14 December 2025, lists “Bruck a.Z. Imming” as a stop on bus route 633 from Monday to Friday. The weekday restriction is important when travelling: check the timetable that applies to your travel date before setting off, and look for the stop name shown.
Finding your way by bike
The “Road bike 13 Zillergrund reservoir” cycling loop also has a specific turning point in Imming: at kilometre 9.4, it turns left, followed by another turn after 50 m. Check the route before setting off, as road conditions and signage may change. Further afield in the region, the same tour follows the L 294 for 3.0 km towards Bruck/Imming. The turning point in Imming and this section further afield are different points of orientation.
