The «Jakobsweg Tirol» consists of two main routes leading westwards, namely a northern one that leads westwards from Kufstein along the Inn valley to the Arlberg, and a more southerly feeder from Lofer (Salzburg) on the same route. The southern main route leads from Nikolsdorf near the border with Carinthia along the Drau to the South Tyrolean Way of St. James in Italy, on which you can then decide to return via the Brenner to Innsbruck in Tyrol. or to continue on a pilgrimage to Müstair at the beginning of the alpine Graubündner Jakobsweg in Switzerland.
