Snow Covered Mountain at Seegrube
Seegrube is the second stop on my way to the Top of Innsbruck. The way to the Top of Innsbruck is broken into three funicular tracks. I arrived at Seegrube and I can clearly see that this is much higher compared to the first stop. The mountain is covered in white snow and it makes for a very beautiful sight. Curiously, I didn’t feel that cold at all. I was wearing my winter jacket but considering the amount of snow I am seeing, it certainly didn’t feel that much colder. I decided to have a look around Seegrube since there were a lot of people who got off here.
Alpine Scenery at Seegrube
A lot of the people who came here, arrived with their snowboards and skis. It looks like this is a popular place for snow boarding. After getting out of the funicular station, there is a row of benches where people can sit and take in the gorgeous view. I thought it was a bit strange to see these benches which won’t look out of place in the beach resort. Further on, you can see where all the excitement happens. There is a snowboarding slope and you can see people constantly making their way down the slope. I don’t know how to snowboard so I can only look. Besides, I don’t even have equipment. I was surprised to not see anywhere you can rent equipment. It appears that everyone has to bring their own equipment when they come up here.
