The
Silvretta Alps are a mountain range of the
Central Eastern Alps shared by
Tirol,
Vorarlberg (both in
Austria) and
Graubünden (
Switzerland). The Austrian
states of Tirol and Vorarlberg are connected by a pass road (Silvretta Hochalpenstraße at 2032 m). 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".
