At the head of the Stubai valley beyond Neustift, the mountains rise to around 10,000 feet to areas of permanent ice. Five glaciers covering nearly 6 square miles form a large all year ski area.

A THE FORTRESS 603
WINNER : Around Kufstein/Kufstein/Austria/Germany & Austria 2009 Galleries
The fortification, then owned by the bishops of Regensburg, was documented for the first time in 1205. From 1313 onwards Kufstein Castle belonged to the Dukes of Bavaria. In 1504 Emperor Maximilian I besieged and conquered Kufstein. He then ordered the castle to be newly built and expanded it to the size of a fortress. In 1703 and 1805 the Bavarians conquered the fortress which again came into Austrian ownership in 1814. It has belonged to the city of Kufstein since 1924.

View of Langwieser Viaduct
Taken from the train from Chur to Arosa.
The viaduct, which we travelled over, is 284m long. At the time of its erection between 1912 and 1914, it was the world's longest railway bridge and the world's first railway bridge to be constructed of reinforced concrete.
