Austria Kaunertal Glacier
It's one of the most beautiful places I know. In winter the ski resort of the Kaunertaler Gletscher is not only a perfect spot for skiing but has a lot of fantastic views. One of the most spectacular is the "Dreiländerblick" - a viewpoint at 3108m altitude. Here you have a panoramic view over Austria, Switzerland and Italy
Photography Tips
In winter the sun is already pretty low around 4pm. Stay as long as you can to get some great pictures without people. The last snow patrol will ask you to leave at 4.30pm. Depending on what side of the valley you want to shoot the morning hours are great as well.
Travel Information
You can take the bus or car up to the base station of the gondola. To get to the top you have to take the gondola or if you are sporty, you can do a skitour. The working hours of the ski resort are from 9am to 4.30pm. The only chance to be up the top early is by ski.
