Gerlos: Zillertal Arena - Ebenfeldteich
Few places in Tyrol have a history as closely tied to the Gerlos Pass crossing as Gemeinde Gerlos. This high-alpine municipality lies in the Zillertal, near the route linking Tyrol with Salzburg’s Pinzgau region. The Durlaßboden Reservoir, impounded for hydropower, is a defining feature above the village, with alpine slopes rising around its shore. Gerlos Pass has long provided a crossing between valleys; today the Gerlos Alpine Road follows this mountain corridor towards Krimml. Gerlos is also part of the Zillertal Arena, a large interconnected ski area shared by Tyrol and Salzburg.

Gemeinde Gerlos lies along the Gerlosbach in the Gerlos Valley, where Alpine slopes rise towards the Zillertal Alps and the Gerlos Pass. Part of Tyrol’s Schwaz district, it occupies the high western end of the Zillertal near the connection with Salzburg’s Pinzgau region. Gerlos is a key base in the Zillertal Arena, whose winter lift network links it with Zell am Ziller, Königsleiten and Hochkrimml. In summer, the same mountain country draws walkers and cyclists. The nearby Gerlos Alpine Road continues towards Krimml and the Hohe Tauern. Find related webcams in the surrounding valleys to build a fuller picture of the Zillertal.

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.
