The Venediger Group ((ドイツ語:Venedigergruppe)) is a sub-group of the Austrian Central Alps in the Eastern Alps. Together with the Ankogel Group, the Goldberg Group, the Glockner Group, the Schober Group, the Kreuzeck Group, the Granatspitze Group, the Villgraten Mountains and the Rieserferner Group the Venediger Group forms the main range known as the High Tauern. The Venediger Group is located in Austria in the federal states of Salzburg and Tyrol, and also in Italy in the region of Trentino-South Tyrol. However the greater part of the range lies in Tyrol (East Tyrol). The highest peak in the Venediger Group is the Großvenediger () which gives its name to the group. The Venediger Group includes the western part of the main chain of the High Tauern. The Felbertauern Road runs over the eastern side of the group. The Venediger Group is the most glaciated mountain range in the High Tauern. The renown of the main summit in the group, the Großvenediger, rather overshadows the other regions and mountains. Nevertheless the group has a great number of peaks, mountain paths and Alpine huts. The origin of its name is unclear. According to a legend, when local shepherds saw the giant, glistening mass of ice for the first time they thought they were looking at the surface of the sea with a town (“Venice”), the name however goes back to the Venediger (Venetian). == Neighbouring ranges == The Venediger Group borders on the following other ranges in the Alps: * Kitzbühel Alps (to the north) * Granatspitze Group (to the east) * Villgraten Mountains (to the south) * Rieserferner Group (to the southwest) * Zillertal Alps (to the west) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Venediger Group」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
