About location

Few places in Tyrol have a history as closely tied to the Fern Pass route as Nassereith. The municipality occupies the Gurgltal, a broad Alpine valley on the road corridor between the Inn valley and the Reutte district. Alpleskopf, Muttekopf and Sinnesjoch form part of the mountainous setting around the settlement, where wooded slopes meet meadows and cultivated valley land. The route over Fern Pass has carried traffic through the Alps for centuries; nearby Schloss Fernstein recalls the importance of this old passage. Nassereith is also known for Schellerlaufen, its distinctive masked carnival, held every three years and marked by large bells, elaborate costumes and carefully prescribed figures.

Region 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.

Country Austria

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.
