Mineral water is a one hundred percent natural product. These family-run businesses in the Alpbachtal produce excellent mineral water that has its origins in the Tyrolean mountains.

In Alpbachtal, mountains, lakes, cultural sights and authentic offers are all packed into a very small space. As rich as the offer is, as diverse is the element of water here.

Gurgling springs, crystal-clear mountain streams, roaring floods in the gorges and the warmest bathing lakes in Tyrol invite you to explore. The purest form of water, however, is that which is obtained directly from the natural spring. In the Alpbachtal there are two family-run businesses that use the purest, natural mineral water.

On its way from the first drop of rain to the spring, the water is purified and enriched with minerals from the surrounding rock. The Gruber private spring, located in Brixlegg, offers the "finest of water". Here, SilberQuelle products are made with natural mineral water. In Münster, the family-owned company Alpquell stands for the best quality and "the most natural Alpine mineral water". The natural Alpquell Alpine mineral water springs from the highest peak in the Zillertal Alps. 

Nothing may be added to the mineral water except carbonic acid. Its minerals come from nature. Both the SilberQuelle mineral water and the Alpquell mineral water each come from a different area of influence. Thus, the qualities and contents of each mineral water are different. The minerals contained must be declared on the label and are subject to strict legal regulations. This guarantees the high quality of Alpbachtaler mineral water, which is good for body, mind and soul.
