Biberwier is a municipality in the Reutte district of Tyrol, Austria, located south of Lermoos between a mountain slope and the avalanche-prone terrain of the Fern Pass. Its name originates from the German word Biber (beavers), which inhabited the area until around 1800. Beavers have since been successfully reintroduced, with a colony now thriving near the Jagdhaus in the Loisach stream, which originates in Biberwier. The village is located on the edge of the Lermooser Moos, a plain once traversed by the Roman trade route Via Claudia Augusta. Archaeological findings highlight Biberwier’s historical importance as a stop along this route. From the Middle Ages until 1921, Biberwier was a mining hub for zinc carbonate, lead, and zinc. Since 2004, the mining area has been accessible to tourists. The Lermoos Tunnel, opened in 1984, diverted through traffic away from the village. With nearby ski resorts like Marienbergjoch and lakes such as Blindsee, Mittersee, and Weißensee, Biberwier is popular for both winter and summer tourism.
