The Bielerhöhe Adventure begins at the Vermuntbahn in Partenen. From there it continues from Trominier in small buses through tunnels and the lofty mountain landscape of the Silvretta up to the Bielerhöhe at 2032 m. There, visitors are treated to incredible views of the gigantic mountain world including Piz Buin, at 3312 metres the highest mountain in Vorarlberg. Lake Silvretta lies at the heart of this breathtaking panorama. After the end of january it is covered with a thick layer of snow and ice that entices the visitor to go cross-country skiing on superbly prepared courses. In addition, the Bielerhöhe is an ideal starting point for a wonderful number of tours through the Silvretta region, the largest touring area in the province.

Hi George, wonderufl view, with a end of winter light and colours on the half frozen lake.
exceleltn quality and amazing colours.
thanks, ciao

Hello George,
A splendid landscape composition. The person in the foreground heightens the depth of the image and emphasises the grandeur of the scenery. Superb colours and clarity.

What a beautiful landscape, George.
Amazing colors especially that of the lake. If the lake was full of ice we would lose this lovely colour. Wonderful terrain, rich in wild rocky mountains! I imagine the sunsets or the sunrises there.
Thank you for sharing.
Regards,
Athanasios.

Szia George,
in the right hotel (Piz Buin) I had a second breakfast some years ago on the terrace in the warm sunlight in January. Just great to be there. Wonderful view in good colours and sharpness. You also got some nice clouds for a pleasant sky. I added one old from me as a workshop to show the snow there in January 2006 in a funny way.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

The snow on the mountains and the ice in the lake make this image very special. Nice composition with great vivid and sharp colors. The water looks amazing and the man near the lake enhances the magnificence of the mountains. Really an effective picture and note as well.

Excellent captured and very well composed certainly with the half frozen lake.
The mountains in background care for a good picture.
Also contrast and colours gives a nice image.
Quality and presentation gives a nice composition.
Thanks for sharing.

Best regards,

Hi George,
I have seen it in summer only, but here it gets some added winter value from the snow and a bit of the typical emerald green to be seen, it seems unlikely though that you got there on skis, was the road already open that early ?
Have a nice day JY

George
Encore une superbe photo de ce très bel endroit. Le paysage est splendide et ta composition excellente.
Amicalement

Hi George!
Congratulation for 400 images at TE but I go for Nr.399.
Viewing the thumbnail I thought it`s Bolivia,because of the green tones of the frozen lake:same color as Laguna Verde.
A good shot ,well composed with the resting person in the corner,and good natural colors.
Regards,leo

Hi George, the place looks very exotic.
Especial the rocky mountains and the superb contrast with the sky
give a very nice effect and impression.
The bowed man is also a great plus here.
Have a nice night
