Summer temperatures have finally hit Europe. And while it’s great to have 30+ degrees on a beach, in the cities, it’s something completely different. On days like these, there’s nothing better than a quick getaway from the city and the heat. So why not head to one of the prettiest lakes in Austria, and a very hidden one as well: the Obernberger See.

Welcome back to the blog and to another blog post. As it seems, I’ll be getting to know my own country for the next few months, and I think that’s not necessarily bad. As I learned, Austria, and Tyrol especially, have lots of beautiful hidden corners that I’ve never seen before. So let me present one of these pretty places today: Lake Piburg, the ‘Piburger See’.

Welcome back on the blog and to another ‘Winter Sports in the Alps’ blog post. This week, we’re headed to another amazing Tyrolean valley: the Pitztal. Here, you can find great skiing areas, and one of them is the Hochzeiger, which I’ll bring you closer to today. Buckle up and let’s get right into it!

Welcome back to the blog and to a new blog post. Once more, I’m focusing on a ski resort that is pretty close to Innsbruck, Austria. This time, we’re headed slightly south, to the Stubai valley, where a skiing area that is very popular among tourists and locals is located: the Schlick 2000 in Fulmpes.

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’. One look at that picture and you know where this name comes from, so let’s start right into talking about the ski resort of Obergurgl-Hochgurgl, hidden deep in the Ötztal valley.

The last weeks, weather has been crazy and in some parts of Tyrol, it actually snowed, just shortly before May began. When there were finally two short days of sun after weeks of rain, I decided to make the most of my free Thursday and went on a little walk along the Möserer See.
