Sölden, Alpine municipality in Ötztal Valley, Austria
The municipality of Sölden spreads across 466 square kilometers at an elevation of 1,368 meters in the Ötztal Alps of Tyrol.
During the 13th century, Sölden developed from a small settlement called Berghof, which maintained records of inhabitants dating back to 1370.
The discovery of Ötzi, a preserved human body from 3400 BC, near Sölden reveals the ancient human presence in these Alpine passages.
The municipality maintains 33 ski lifts and 146 kilometers of ski slopes, connecting the Rettenbach and Tiefenbach glaciers through the Ötztal Glacier Road.
Sölden holds the distinction of being the largest municipality in Austria and hosts the opening races of the Alpine Skiing World Cup each October.
