Silvretta Hochalpenstraße - a photo on Flickriver

            The Silvretta Alps (Silvretta Massif) are a mountain range of the Central Eastern Alps shared by Tirol, Vorarlberg (both in Austria) and Graubünden (Switzerland). The majority of the peaks are elevated above three thousand metres and are surrounded by glaciers. 
Thus, the area is also known as the "Blue Silvretta". 
Tirol and Vorarlberg are connected by a pass road, the Silvretta Hochalpenstraße (Silvretta High-Alpine Road). 
The road from Partenen (Vorarlberg) to Galtur (Tirol) is one of the most beautiful pass roads of the Alps. The famous road winds its way for 18 km in 34 hairpin bends up to the Bielerhöhe Pass at 2032 m, the top of the Silvretta Hochalpenstraße, with too the Silvretta Stausee (Silvretta Reservoir). 

De Silvretta is een bergmassief in de Oostenrijkse deelstaten Tirol en Vorarlberg en het Zwitserse kanton Graubünden. 
Het bergketen maakt deel uit van de Centrale Alpen van de Oostelijke Alpen. De pieken komen boven de drieduizend meter uit en het noordelijke deel is omgeven door een groot aantal grotere en kleinere gletsjergebieden. 
Dit gebied heeft de bijnaam Blauwe Silvretta.
De Oostenrijkse deelstaten Tirol en Vorarlberg zijn met elkaar verbonden door de Silvretta Hochalpenstraße (Silvretta Hoogalpenstraat). De straat van Partenen (Vorarlberg) naar Galtür (Tirol) is een van de mooiste panoramawegen van de Alpen. 
De beroemde 18 km lange pasweg slingert zich via 34 haarspeldbochten naar de Bielerhöhe Pass op 2032 m, het hoogste punt van de Silvretta Hochalpenstraße. Hier ligt ook het Silvretta Stuwmeer. Vanaf de weg is over het meer een onvergelijkbaar berglandschap met een aantal gletsjers zichtbaar.
