A ski touring trip to the nearby Dead Mountains – the Totes Gebirge – is a popular combination of skinning and freeride around the Wurzeralm resort.

The Dolomiti di Brenta, the westernmost tip of the Southern Limestone Alps, form a rugged and distinctive massif that belongs to the UNESCO World Heritage of the Dolomites. Its second-highest peak, Cima Tosa (3,136 m), rises proudly between Molveno and Madonna di Campiglio — a striking limestone ridge requires some climbing moves for those who wish to reach the summit.

Hidden in the far western corner of Tyrol, the Kaunertal Glacier Road is one of the highest and most spectacular paved climbs in Austria. Starting from the Inn Valley, it winds through a long glacial valley, past the turquoise Gepatsch Reservoir, and finishes high above the treeline at the edge of the glacier. For road cyclists and mountain lovers alike, it’s a ride into the world of ice and rock—remote, quiet, and breathtaking.
