Staying in Wilten, Innsbruck
Leopoldstraße gives Wilten a useful north to south spine, but the district stretches beyond that single street. Compare addresses near Wiltener Platzl with those closer to the abbey before planning your walks. The approach to Bergisel adds a climb after the relatively level streets below, so footwear and the final part of the route matter more than the map distance suggests.
