Sölden, the Top Ski Destination in Tirol‘s Ötztal, combines sports, action and enjoyment at the highest level plus snow reliability from October through May. Due to this unrivaled variety also James Bond himself felt stirred and shaken in the „Spectre“ blockbuster, in cinemas from 26 October 2015, after shooting the movie‘s coolest action scenes in Sölden. More to James Bond in Sölden.
Around the turn of the year 2014/15, all 007 stars and a 500-peo- ple film crew stayed in Sölden.The super-handy Agent 007 was keen to shoot the most thrilling action scenes and the wildest chases on the ultra-modern mountain gondola, on Sölden‘s ski slopes and the panoramic Glacier Road with Europe‘s highest road tunnel. Daniel Craig‘s allies and enemies – movie stars like Ben Whishaw, Léa Seydoux and Dave Bautista – met right amid Tirol‘s picture-book winter landscapes. Producer Barbara Broc- coli was enthusiastic about the „5-star infrastructures from the valley floor up to 3000 meters“, so important for her team and the film shooting itself.
