The famous Tyrolean artist, Professor Rudi Wach, created his “Chapel of the White Light” at apoint just a few minutes’ walk from the glacier restaurant “Kristall”. The Kapellenweg leads off the ski slope to the chapel and invites you to relax. A crystal of white granite, breaking out from deep inside the earth joining the light of the sky. The altar carved out of a single piece of granite is part of this great crystal. It forms the inner core of the crystal. At the same time it combines the elements of earth and light. 33 people can gather around it. It embodies spiritual communication. It becomes the centre. The incoming sunlight is refracted by coloured windows, producing a joyful feeling of harmony and welcome security, causing a dialogue to take place between the physical and the spiritual, between the inner and outer world of people. Tip: Take the Wildspitzbahn gondola up to Café 3440, where you can enjoy the panoramic views of the Wildspitze, the highest peak of Northern Tyrol while enjoying a delicious piece of cake. For even greater views to marvel at walk up to the viewing platform, just a few paces from Café 3440.

 

This winter hike leads from the hamlet of Kaitanger along the Wassertalweg, which is groomed with a cross-country skiing machine, and then branches off onto a trail to the hamlet of Falsterwies. Then you follow the asphalted road to the village center of Jerzens.

Below the “Jerzens Kirche” car park, the hiking trail leads in a generous arc around the church and after approx. 600 meters you have the opportunity to go back past the church to the starting point. The supervised hiking trail leads over a bridge onto a dirt road, which after about another 600 meters joins the state road. Follow this state road back into the village center and after about 300 meters you will reach the “Jerzens Kirche” car park.
