Overview

Kaprun - Kitzsteinhorn

Located at the foot of the Kitzsteinhorn, the ski area Kaprun Kitzsteinhorn is one of Europe’s most famous. A real tourist magnet is the glacier ski area on an altitude of 2900 m. Skiers, snowboarders and carvers find perfect conditions here even during the summer. But Kaprun Kitzsteinhorn is not only a well known ski resort. There are lots of cultural highlights you can enjoy in the city of Kaprun with it’s long history and traditions. One must-see sight is the time-honoured castle of Kaprun. In 1975 the old masonry was totally overhauled. The castle was built in the 12th century and has been the set for many cultural events, even today. The Romanesque eastern tower “Turn ze Chaprunne” is a real eye catcher.
