The Pitztal is an alpine valley located in Tyrol, Austria.[1] The Pitztal is a southern side valley of the Upper Inntal, and runs between the valleys Ötztal (to the east) and Kaunertal (to the west).[1] The Pitze river runs the length of the valley and flows into the Rifflsee lake (2,232 m; 7,323 ft) west of the upper coarse; its average rate of flow is 2.7 m3/s (95 cu ft/s). The uppermost section of the river produces the Gries waterfall.[1]
The primary economic activity of the valley is agriculture and tourism. One of the main attractions of the valley is the Pitztal underground funicular, which takes passengers from Mittelberg (1,736 m; 5,696 ft) to Mittelbergferner mountain (2,841 m; 9,321 ft).[1] Important villages in the valley include Wenns (962 m; 3,156 ft), Sankt Leonhard im Pitztal (1,366 m; 4,482 ft), and Arzl im Pitztal (880 m; 2,890 ft).[1]
