Kaunertal Nature Days
Our climate walks take us from subalpine pastures to high-alpine terrain and focus on the changes our mountain world is undergoing as a result of climate change. Accompanied by experienced mountain guides, we will experience the dynamism of the alpine environment at first hand and gain fascinating insights into nature, the landscape and how they change.
1. Climate Walk EXPERIENCE THE GEPATSCHFERNER (2,840 M)
This impressive summer climate hike takes us straight to the largest glacier in the Eastern Alps—the Gepatschferner. Even as you climb up the Wannet, it becomes clear just how much the glacial landscape has changed in recent years. Once we reach the glacier tongue, we set foot on the eternal ice – equipped with crampons and harnesses – and gain our first experience of high-altitude terrain. Amidst crevasses, glacial mills and massive icefalls, you can really feel the glacier’s dynamic energy up close. After crossing the impressive glacier tongue, the route takes us on to the Rauhekopf Hut. After a short break, we will continue our ascent a little further up to the vast glacial plateau of the Gepatschferner – a place where the effects of climate change are particularly striking. The descent follows the same route back down to the valley.

STARRY NIGHTS IN THE KAUNERTAL
Nestled amidst the stunning high-mountain landscape of the Gepatsch, at an altitude of around 2,000 metres above sea level, lies the unique Sternenschale star-gazing bowl. Measuring almost 7 metres in diameter, it can accommodate 15–20 people and was built using local stone and Swiss stone pine in collaboration with local craftsmen.
The Sternenschale star-gazing board is open to the public 24 hours a day – it can be reached via the renovated “old Gepatschweg” from the Gepatschspeicher, or via a revitalised path from the Gepatschhaus.
Thanks to the Kaunertal Glacier Road, you can reach one of the darkest places in Austria – ideal for stargazing. If you’d like to find out more, you can join guided tours led by two starguides and discover the universe up close.
