Zell am See-Kaprun is one of the most sought-after ski destinations in the Alps, with 408 kilometres of perfectly groomed slopes across two unique mountains. Whether glacier skiing on the Kitzsteinhorn or leisurely carving on the Schmittenhöhe: everyone finds their personal winter paradise here.
Two Mountains, Endless Possibilities
The Zell am See-Kaprun ski region combines two exceptional ski areas under one roof. The Kitzsteinhorn with its eternal glacier offers reliable snow from October through May, while the Schmittenhöhe impresses families and leisure skiers with its breathtaking panoramic views over Lake Zell.
Early Start to the Ski Season
Thanks to the Kitzsteinhorn glacier, Zell am See-Kaprun is one of the few regions that allows skiing from October onwards. The season extends into late spring, making it an unbeatable destination for those who want to enjoy winter sports to the fullest. With modern snowmaking facilities, top piste conditions are guaranteed even off the glacier.
Freeride, Snowpark and Night Skiing
For freestylers and freeriders, the ski area offers special highlights: five designated freeride lines on the Kitzsteinhorn and four snowparks with varying difficulty levels provide non-stop action. On selected evenings, the floodlit night slope transforms into a magical experience under the Alpine sky.
Ski ALPIN CARD: Even More Piste Kilometres
With the Ski ALPIN CARD, the skiing fun expands considerably: together with the Skicircus Saalbach Hinterglemm Leogang Fieberbrunn, over 670 kilometres of slopes are available. This makes Zell am See-Kaprun the ideal base for ski holidays that prioritise variety and discovery.
Modern Ticket System Without Queues
Innovative smartphone ticketing makes skiing more convenient than ever. Buy tickets, load them directly onto your phone and head straight to the lifts without waiting at ticket offices. Families, groups and solo skiers all benefit equally from this smart solution.
