About Kaprun

Kaprun is anchored by the Kitzsteinhorn glacier at 3,029m — one of Austria's highest skiable peaks — which extends the season from October through late April and provides a snow guarantee rare in lower Salzburg resorts. The resort sits in the Zell am See-Kaprun region where the glacier skiing complements the lake-side town of Zell am See and its combined 138km ski area, giving visitors genuine variety across terrain types and altitudes. The glacier's altitude means conditions on the Kitzsteinhorn remain stable even during warm spells that compromise lower Austrian resorts, making it a reliable all-weather option for the region.
