593m above sea level, population 1,090
Occupying a sunny spot on a knoll above the Inn valley, the area around what is now the small village of Baumkirchen has been a popular settlement since the Bronze Age. There is still a lot to be said for this special location: numerous walking opportunities and mountain tours start virtually on the doorstep and there are many vantage points affording fine views over the Inn valley. The 12 springs, which during the 16th century transformed Baumkirchen into a popular "health spa", were sadly destroyed by earthquakes. However, the lush meadows and the forests surrounding the attractive village provide the perfect environment for lengthy walks and an appreciation of nature.
