Galtur

Gemeinde Galtür straddles the upper Paznaun Valley in Tyrol, where its position beneath the Silvretta Alps has shaped a community closely tied to mountain travel and winter conditions. The village lies near Austria’s borders with Switzerland and Italy, surrounded by high passes, alpine pastures and routes leading towards the Silvretta reservoir area. Galtür is also home to the Alpinarium, a cultural centre and avalanche documentation space created after the devastating 1999 avalanche, which claimed 31 lives in the village. Today, hiking, skiing and cycling connect its settled valley floor with the surrounding high terrain.
