Statistically sound
Kitzbühel has everything going for it. Not only does it have 185km of fantastic pistes, you’re guaranteed almost 200 snow-sure days to enjoy them! And if that’s not enough, thanks to its 125-year-old history and heritage, its skiing and snowboarding pedigree speaks for itself. You’ll be nice and busy with 67 runs and two terrain parks.
Something for everyone
Newbies to the slopes can make good use of the 106km of beginner-rank pistes. But with two parks for snowboarders, it’s easy to practise your tricks and jumps here as well. On top of this, you’ll be able to try out ice skating and snowshoeing, with a spa, bowling alley and cinema available too.
An Austrian idyll
The vast and high mountains surrounding the town of Kitzbühel really pack in the wow factor. The locals say it’s located in the Alps’ ‘snow corner’ and the town is made up of pastel-coloured houses and eateries serving traditional Austrian fare. It’s completely quaint.
