When was the last time you experienced something breathtaking?
On the way up, you get closer and closer to the secret gate to the south on the high alpine road. The Timmelsjoch forms the border crossing from Austria to Italy and is popular with many cycling and motorbike fans thanks to the beautiful views all the way up.
At this summit, however, there is another highlight that will make every lover of antique and rare motorbikes’s heart jump out of their chest with joy. The Top Mountain Motorcycle Museum was completely destroyed in a fire in January 2021 and reopened in mid-November of the same year – a place that not only delights true connoisseurs.
A connection that is preserved
One hundred metres above the ground, the Piccard Bridge has not only offered hikers a safe crossing over the gorge for some time now, but has also become an attraction. The dizzying but safe construction was named after the balloonist Auguste Piccard, who made Obergurgl famous and well-known worldwide in 1931 with his landing at the Gurgler Ferner. The bridge is also on the circular route from Obergurgl to the Ramolhaus.
