Skiing has arrived now, if we can get to paradise Solder white and have a close encounter with the Wildspitze, the highest mountain in the Tyrol (37.74 meters). They are the Total Alps in Austria, especially suitable for lovers of the mountain and ski enthusiast.

Winter has begun in the vicinity of Alpine glaciers Rettenbach and Tiefenbach, where snow is guaranteed from September to May. Season starts with the reopening of nearly 150 km of slopes in the ski areas of Solder and Hoch olden (early November). As is tradition, this is a march speeches called Big 3Rally white, which leads to the most daring of three peaks over 3,000 meters of altitude: the Gaislachkogl, the Schneider Tiefenbachkogl and Schwarz, a tough mountain route over 50 kilometers.

Many are limited to exit the walk and stop at the first stop: the beautiful views of the circular platforms installed on top of Gaislachkogl, a moment of mystical contemplation which can be reached by cable car, after twelve long minutes of rapid ascent. More than a competition is a celebration for skiers, take refuge in the champagne and oysters.

On the side of the mountain is located five-star Spa Hotel Solder Central, the most luxurious choice for skiing in the world, wedged between glaciers. A privileges for skiers more puduientes, because prices rise even higher than the peaks of the Alpine giants (up to 700 € per night persona!): The cuisine of Chef Gottfried Prate, relaxing aromatherapy massage for after a hard day in the snow, and so on.

But not everything is inaccessible at this location. Due to its border location, each year thousands of Italians flock to this place to ski, filling shelters and rural hotels. They know that snow is guaranteed and that the leisure and entertainment options are plentiful.

Some also go to this corner of the Alps in search of the story: here he found the mummified corpse of that Neolithic hunter who died trapped in the glacier and whose body was ice cold and remained almost intact. This is Ortiz, named after its discoverers after the valley where it was found.
