Kaprun

The location

You’ll find Kaprun in Austria’s Salzburg state. Close to the well-known resort of Zell am See-Kaprun, the village of Kaprun is just 85km from Salzburg airport.

The resort

This village-style resort dates back as far as the Celts and today serves as a sporting area all-year-round. Famous for its glacier area, Kaprun also has plenty to do off the slopes, making it great for a fun-filled break both day and night.

Castle of Kaprun

It isn’t all slopes and après-ski, Kaprun has a wealth of cultural delights just waiting to be discovered. Look out for the annual events held within the castle walls of this striking building, dating back over 600 years!

Loads to (Zell am) See

Head 8km north from the resort centre of Kaprun and you’ll come to Zell am See with its picturesque lake and dramatic scenery. Brightly coloured buildings and traditional architecture make this a pretty place to visit any time of the year.

Ice bar

If you feel as though you haven’t seen enough snow during the day, you’ll be pleased to know that Ice Camp in Kitzsteinhorn has an amazing ice bar. Sit back on an ice sofa and sip a refreshing drink in one of the four interconnecting igloos!
