So what's it like?
The village of Obergurgl, Austria's highest parish, nestles at the end of the Ötz Valley, arguably the prettiest valley in the Tirol. This little mountain village is completely surrounded by vast stunning peaks in an area of astonishing natural beauty. The views all around are truly spectacular, and at an altitude of over 1,800m, you can really feel the exhilaration of the fresh mountain air. Enticingly close are the permanent snowfields of the Tiefenbach and Rattenbach Glaciers above the neighbouring village of Sölden.
