Skiing in Kitzbühel is more than just winter sports on the mountain. Here you get the whole package with ski racing celebrities, mountain hut fun and a sophisticated Kitzbühel lifestyle.
Which town in Tyrol can claim to have held regular ski races since the 19th century? Kitzbühel can, because it was in 1893 that Franz Reisch became the first person in Austria to complete a high alpine ski run on the Kitzbüheler Horn. It was then that the Kitzbühel legend was born, which today lives above all from the legendary Hahnenkamm race and the infamous Streif. All those winter sports enthusiasts who are not among the world's elite also benefit from this. The ski area around the Kitzbüheler Horn and Hahnenkamm is now one of the most popular in the Alps with its extensive range of pistes.
Snowboard fun parks, many wonderful ski routes for freeride fans, modern lifts and an abundance of cosy ski huts and snack stations characterize the large arena. If you have a lot of experience on the slopes, you should also try the Streif, which is one of the most difficult racing slopes in the world. Although it has a rather moderate altitude of up to 2,000 meters, the ski area is very snow-sure between December and April.
Kitzbühel also scores points for its easy accessibility and famous lifestyle flair. The high density of boutiques, award-winning restaurants and bars ensures that there is always something to experience and enjoy after a fulfilling day of skiing.
