Autumn's Flight. The Timmelsjoch & Jaufenpass by drone. 6K UHD Aerial

An Aerial Video filmed in 6K UHD featuring the Timmelsjoch (Passo del Rombo) & Jaufenpass (Passo di Monte Giovo) mountain passes in Italy's South Tyrol. Filmed with a DJI Inspire 2 drone and a Zenmuse X7 Camera (50mm & 35mm lenses) with the apple ProRes RAW codec. Also featured the Valle Vizze, near Vipiteno, past the Jaufenpass. The Jaufenpass (Italian Passo di Monte Giovo) connects the Eisacktal valley in the east with the Passeiertal valley in the west. Starting point in the east is the village Sterzing (ital. Vipiteno), end point of that pass road is Saint Leonhard (ital. San Leonardo). Starting that tour in Sterzing the pass road winds itself through green meadows and some smaller forests up. The road itself is very narrow with lots of curves. After you have reached the timber line, the view opens up and you have a beautiful picture down into the Eisacktal valley On the pass summit, you will find some kind of log cabin with small food service and souvenir sale. If you continue a bit on that road, you will find behind the pass summit a guesthouse with a big parking lot. On this side of the mountain, the pass roads swings down in wide curves and serpentines down to Saint Leonhard. The road surface is moderate, the mountain view however magnificent. In Saint Leonhard you have the possibility to take a right up to the Timmelsjoch pass, whereby the Italian side is still toll free. Whether beginners or extreme climbers, the north of Südtirol offers some varied summit tours. You will find true secrets of alpinism on the peaks around Vipiteno and Racines. The Alps around the alpine city offer the best conditions for a hiking holiday, whether if you're searching for easily accessible mountains, or demanding summits on high alpine terrain. Mountain hiking and climbing can be consumed at any given time! The Timmelsjoch pass (Passo del Rombo in Italian) is an international high mountain pass at an elevation of 2.509m (8,231ft) above the sea level that creates a link through the Ötztal Alps along the border between Austria and Italy, just some meters below the Queen of alpine roads, the Passo dello Stelvio. It's one of the highest mountain passes of the Alps. The Timmelsjoch connects the Ötztal valley in the Austrian state of Tyrol to the Passeier Valley in the Italian province of South Tyrol. On the Italian side, the road to reach the summit is called SS44bis, and on the Austrian side, there’s a toll road, called Timmelsjoch Hochalpenstrasse, with a maximum altitude of 2.509 m and a length of 12 km. With its 2.509m altitude it is one of the highest alpine transition roads. From Untergurgl across the Timmelsjoch pass to South Tirol/Meran the road has a length of 38km. Due to the exposed high-elevation terrain, driving over the mountain pass is only possible between approximately the beginning of June and the end of October. The pass is now popular with car and motorbike tourists. Due to its elevation, steepness, and narrow road, the pass is closed to lorries and vehicles with trailers. The pass road is open to traffic daily from 7:00 am to 8:00 pm. The Ötztal valley side is subject to a toll charge. Road closures can be frequent, so check conditions before traveling to this area. The drive is definitely worth it. The narrow road offers breathtaking views of the Ötztal Alps and afterwards of the picturesque landscape of the “Passeiertal” in South Tyrol. Val di Vizze is the valley on the east side of Vipiteno-Racines and extends its meadows to the Austrian border. In the natural, almost untouched high valley nature friends will find an ideal place for their vacation. Nestled in a magnificent mountain landscape between a row of distinctive summits (Weißspitz, Wolfendorn, Rotbachler, Hochfeiler, Felbe and Wilde Kreuzspitze), where you can enjoy a simple and quiet holiday in the Südtirol mountain world. At the valley entrance, the main village Prati offers for families a beautiful playground in the middle of a small forest.
