Sölden is a municipality in the Ötztal valley of Tyrol, Austria. With c. 467 km², it is the largest municipality in the country. The population of 3,449 (as of 2003) is outnumbered by tourists of which 15,000 can be accommodated. With tourist bed nights running at over two million per year, the municipality is second only to Vienna as an Austrian tourist destination: inevitably Sölden's has lost some its former villagey charm, but other attractions have been enhanced in recent years.

The main village of Sölden is at 1,368 m above sea level. The highest peak is the Wildspitze which is at 3,768 m the second highest mountain in Austria after the Großglockner.

Sölden is also a popular ski resort. The first Alpine Skiing World Cup race of the year usually takes place there. However, the scheduled race for 2006 was cancelled due to weather.
