Maso Corto (Kurzras) lies at the head of Val Senales in the Ötztal Alps, where glaciated high slopes close the valley beneath ridges near the Austrian border. This compact settlement is the base for the Val Senales Glacier ski area, whose lifts reach terrain used for winter sport and high-altitude training. The surrounding mountains lead toward the Tisenjoch, the pass where the Copper Age mummy Ötzi was found in 1991. Its Italian and German names reflect Südtirol’s bilingual public life, while valley farms give way here to a distinctly high-mountain setting.
