Located at the foot of the Mieming Plateau, famous for its warm climate, the municipality of Mötz lies at 654 metres above sea leveland offers visitors the perfect combination of action, relaxation and sunshine.
As early as 1290 there was a bridge over the Inn river in the place where Mötz now stands. As such, this early settlement served an important role as a hub of trade and transport on the river. Today there is not just one but there are several bridges in Mötz over the Inn, including a spectacular hanging bridge.
