Vent unplugged

What is Vent unplugged?

Get out of everyday life full of over-information, hectic pace and constant impressions, wind down and get involved with what your own body and the alpine environment have to offer. Vent unplugged meets this longing during three different weeks in summer 2023. Places of strength and special offers for outdoor exercise, enjoyment and regional cuisine - all this amidst peace and nature at over 1900 m above sea level.

The historically interesting loop tour takes you from Vent through mountain pine forests via “Hohler Stein” Stone Age hunting base to Hörnle. You will enjoy picture-book views of Vent and the nearby mountains, e.g. Wildspitze at 3768 m – North Tirol’s highest mountain. The descent is via an unsurfaced footpath (“Jägersteig”) to the historically interesting Kaser area and further on to Vent. The hiking guide will tell you more about the sheep drive, the legend of the cursed pasture, the discovery of Ötzi - the Iceman and a lot more... an exciting hike in the mountaineering village of Vent.

  • Route description: difficulty level – red mountain path (surefootedness, good head for heights, adequate fitness & equipment)
  • Participation free of charge

Wednesday, 09 August 2023, 8.00 am - Close to the glacier with Vent’s mountain guides

get up close and personal with Ötztal’s glacier world: join us on an adventure to Rofenkar Glacier at over 3000 meters with certified mountain guides. The chairlift takes you comfortably to Stableinalm, from where the approx. 1.5 hour ascent to the glacier starts. Along the impressive icefall you indulge deeper and deeper into the eternal ice - if you are brave, you can even abseil into a crevasse! There is enough time for photos and filming before you continue on Rofenkarsteig for about 1.5 hours to Breslauer Hütte and from there back again.

In the evening: Candle Light Dinner in Vent's inns

On Tuesday evening, the lights will go out in Vent: electricity is used as little as possible. No streetlights, no illuminated advertisements on the facades and instead candlelight dinners.

Tuesday, 05 September 2023, 9.30 pm - Lecture & sky watching (under the starry sky) "Recognize constellations"

On this evening, “star guide” Marianne Götsch teaches you the basics to analyze the signs of the zodiac in the night sky and to find some selected constellations at any time. You will learn exciting things about constellations, which have their historical origins in Greek mythology. There are also intriguing questions related to the present: Does a dark night still have any value for us when navigation is carried out by satellites? What is light pollution and does it have an impact on our body? An evening of somewhat different sky watching... If stargazing is not possible due to weather conditions, the entire event will take place as a constellation workshop in the seminar room of Hotel Venter Bergwelt. Equipment required: warm clothing, possibly a seat pad, red light headlamp or flashlight, binoculars (can be rented on site if needed)
