geography

Ranggen is located in a hollow of the Inntalterrasse , west of Innsbruck or in the eastern continuation of the Inzinger Berg.

The actual Rangger local area is divided into an outer, upper and lower village. There are also alley-like densities and hamlets that shape the image of the cultural landscape. The Ferklehen residence (located in the valley floor near Unterperfuss), whose name is derived from “Fergen”, which originally meant the right to look after the Inn ferry at Zirl, is a special feature of the settlement area . After the construction of the Inn Bridge (1482), Fergenrecht then related to bridge maintenance.

The Rettenbach flows through Ranggen. A very popular bicycle route leads from the Inn Valley to Ranggen over approx. 5 km and 200 m elevation gain. This also represents the main traffic connection. The highest mountain is the Rangger Köpfl , with 1939  m a very popular excursion mountain for summer and winter sports enthusiasts of all kinds. One of the longest natural toboggan runs with a length of almost 8 km and a height difference of approx 950 m.

In the Middle Ages and early modern times, the Premonstratensian Monastery Wilten (Innsbruck) had important possessions in Ranggen. It ran its own archive drawer under the name "Lutzlranggen" (from Middle High German lützel , lützelig = small, little), which is now linguistically represented in the Ortried Itzlranggen.
