Take the bus from Neustift to Mutterbergalm (30mins), then the cable car to Eisgrat for your visit to Stubai Glacier. Fondly known as the ‘Top of Tyrol’ at 3,210m, Stubai Glacier is well worth a visit with its commanding views of the Italian Dolomites and beyond. During summer, you can also visit an incredible ice grotto, giving you a unique insight into the history of this 1000-year-old glacier. Hike across the glacier, stopping at Austria’s highest mountain restaurant with breath-taking mountain views ever present. The summit platform protrudes nine metres beyond the cliff edge, regarded as one of the most beautiful viewing platforms in the world.

With impressive rocky towers and spikes, these blunt Dolomite rocks are certainly reminiscent of the Dolomites as they stand proud commanding all the attention.
