Rettenbach glacier
The Rettenbach glacier is a glacier located near Sölden, in the Ötztal Alps of Austria. During the winter the glacier is accessible by cable car and from spring time by car, using the Gletscherstraße. During autumn, usually in October, the 'FIS Ski world cup' is opened with the first competition of the season on the glacier. The glacier is also an attractive area for regular skiers and plays an important role in connecting the main ski area of Sölden with the Tiefenbach glacier.
2009 Schalfkogel avalanche
The 2009 Schalfkogel avalanche was an avalanche which occurred in Sölden, Austria, on 3 May 2009. Six people were killed, five Czechs and one Slovak, when the disaster struck in the 3,500-metre Schalfkogel mountain range. The corpses were discovered to have been frozen upon recovery. It was the deadliest avalanche to have occurred in Austria since March 2000. Although avalanches are a regular occurrence in the region, they mainly kill individuals as opposed to entire groups.
