Directly in the old town is a great nightclub (it was called Aftershave - but now it is "Dachsbau") They play most of the time hip hop - a Lot of dance + a lot of sweat! I recommend NOT to leave your jacket/handbag alone.

Parks & Nature
The Alps are not just high mountains but you will also find deep gorges, cultivated valleys and gently rolling hills. Some areas are exceedingly remote, others densely populated. The resulting biodiversity is amazing: at least 30 000 different animal species (mostly insects) are estimated to inhabit the region and about 4500 plant species grow in the area.
