Kaunertal: Gletscherzentrum
Kaunertal Glacier Centre occupies a high-alpine basin in Tyrol’s Ötztal Alps. The centre stands at the head of the Kaunertal, a long side valley of the Upper Inn Valley, amid the glacier terrain of the Austrian Alps. It is part of the Kaunertaler Gletscher ski area, where lifts and prepared runs are set among bare rock, ice fields and sharp ridgelines. The Kaunertal Glacier Road, a toll road from the settled valley, provides the essential link to this elevated area. The setting is defined less by village life than by the practical infrastructure of a high-mountain ski centre and the scale of its glaciated surroundings.

Gemeinde Kaunertal straddles the Faggenbach in Tyrol’s Kaunertal valley, and its setting beneath the Ötztal Alps has shaped a community of small settlements along a steep Alpine corridor. From Feichten, the Kaunertal Glacier Road leads past the Gepatsch Reservoir towards the Weißseeferner glacier, placing a remarkable high-mountain route within the municipality. Alpine farming remains part of local life on the valley’s summer pastures, while the Kaunergrat Nature Park region provides routes for walking and mountain exploration. The Kaunertal Glacier ski area also keeps the valley active through the winter season. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Kaunertal and Tyrol.

Tyrol combines an energetic alpine identity with an established urban culture in a way that reflects its position within the central Eastern Alps. Innsbruck, the regional capital on the River Inn, lies beneath the Nordkette range and brings imperial-era architecture into close contact with high mountain terrain. Its Golden Roof remains one of the city’s best-known historic landmarks, while the surrounding valleys connect settlements, ski areas and hiking country across the region.

Austria stretches from the Bohemian Massif along its northern edge to the Carnic Alps on the Italian border, encompassing high Alpine ranges and the Danube lowlands. The Danube links cities including Linz and Vienna, while the Grossglockner, at 3,798 metres, is the country’s highest mountain. Vienna developed for centuries as the seat of the Habsburg court, leaving imperial architecture around the Hofburg and Schönbrunn Palace. Salzburg is closely associated with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, who was born there in 1756. Alpine Tyrol, wine-growing areas east of Vienna and the lakes of Salzkammergut add markedly different regional identities.
