Was ist der Brenner in Tirol?

  1. Ein Gebirgspass zwischen Tirol und Südtirol, einer der wichtigsten Alpenübergänge zwischen Nord- und Südeuropa
  2. Ein Skigebiet
  3. Ein Fluss in Tirol
  4. Ein Gebirgspass zwischen Tirol und der Schweiz

Why this is the correct answer

The Brenner Pass, at 1,370 meters, is the lowest of the main Alpine crossing points and has been a major transit route since Roman times, when it carried the road from Verona to Augsburg. Today the Brenner Motorway (A13/A22) and the Brenner Railway carry enormous volumes of freight and passenger traffic between northern and southern Europe. Plans for a Brenner Base Tunnel running deep beneath the mountains are under construction and will further increase capacity when completed.
