As an oversized advent calendar, the facades of the medieval town center of the former salt pan town shine. This envelops the romantic Christmas market of Hall in Tirol in a unique atmosphere of lights, which is very traditional - in keeping with the medieval backdrop of the city: every day brass bands and choirs enchant the visitors with Christmas music, and a fire show makes many spectators big eyes!

On the way back, just behind the Austrian-German border, we reach Mittenwald, located at the foot of the Karwendel Mountains. Even if the Mittenwald Christmas market does not take place every day, it is still worth a stop in the violin-making village known for the lucrative Bolzano market.
