A limp winter light slides across the steel curve of Bergisel as your guide meets you at Urichhaus. From the base you can already sense the incline — a modern ramp that thrusts into the Tyrolean sky. Within minutes an inclined elevator lifts you toward the tower; the observation deck opens a raw, wide view of Innsbruck rooflines and the serrated chain of the Nordkette.
