Heiliges Land Tirol – das kommt nicht von ungefähr. Die Dichte an kunsthistorisch wertvoller Bausubstanz ist in Tirol höher als in vielen anderen Ländern. In Bichlbach steht ein ganz besonders interessantes Exemplar: Die Zunftkirche der Maurer und Zimmerleute, die im armen Außerfern vom Frühling bis zum Herbst immer auf Wanderschaft gehen mussten, um Arbeit zu finden. Sie ist dem Hl. Josef geweiht und als solche die einzige in Österreich. Außen schlicht, belohnt Sie der Blick nach innen! Der prächtige 10 m hohe Hochaltar mit dem gehörnten "Bichltuif" ("Bichlteufel"), die Fresken von Paul Zeiller aus der berühmten Außerferner Künstlerfamilie und der 2,30 m hohe Wundmalchristus (der "Tropfheiland") vom Bildhauer Andreas Thamasch sind bestes Barock.
Bichlbach – Picture book perfection in the Zugspitz Arena

Like a picture book, the small village of Bichlbach lies surrounded by the Lechtal Alps and the powerful massif of the Zugspitze. Mass tourism doesn’t stand a chance up here – the people of Bichlbach place a great deal of value on their natural assets: luscious green upland meadows transformed in winter to fantastic ski runs, old traditions and local, hearty fare.
