What makes backcountry skiing in Vent so special

Through ancient, mystical pine forests, over imposing mountainsides, up to lofty pastures and majestic icy peaks: Our mountaineering village at the foot of Mt Talleitspitze is a starting point for awe-inspiring backcountry skiing tours in almost all directions. Its high-Alpine location at 1,900 metres above sea level not only means snow is guaranteed, but has also helped Vent retain its charming, traditional character over the centuries.
