More InformationHowever, this was not the case. Due to avalanche danger the road to Gaschurn was closed and we were stuck. From now on, it snowed every day, approx. 50 cm of fresh snow.
We spent our time in a coffeehouse or with snow-shoveling. We followed every rumor, saying that the street would be opened again.
On 4th day the road was opened for 30 minutes and we could depart, luckily we had freed the car from snow. Later we learned from the media that the street was closed another 4 days.
Luckily, there are not so much snow every year. The area around Gaschurn is a wonderful skiing region.
