Back to the glacier

Back to the glacier

A beautiful start to the year on the „Alpine Roof” – return to the Ziller Valley and its spectacular end – the Hintertux Glacier.

The first time I was there during a pandemic, slightly letting go. It was summer, 2020. After difficult months, I decided that … summer skiing will be the thing that will allow me to break away from everyday topics. It was an exotic, wonderful experience.

I returned to the glacier last winter in the wonderful company of my son and friends. The weather was good and the views fed the senses.

The last trip was as wonderful as the previous ones, despite the spring in the middle of winter. At an altitude of 3,250 meters, the temperature was only -0.4 degrees, at 2,660 meters +4, and at 2,250 meters almost +9 … It’s hard not to notice climatic changes in the high mountains. So let’s enjoy skiing while we still can…
