So why not head to one of the prettiest lakes in Austria, and a very hidden one as well: the Obernberger See.

Winter Sports in the Alps: Obergurgl-Hochgurgl, Tyrol, Austria
From the ‘Jewel of the Alps’ to the ‘white roof’ of Innsbruck - we’ve had it all. So this week, it’s time to talk about the ‘Diamond of the Alps’.
