Kitzbühel Alps Ski Area

Kitzbühel is part of one of the largest and most renowned ski areas in the world, the Kitzbühel Alps. The local ski pass covers approximately 233 kilometers of perfectly groomed slopes, including 101 km of blue (easy), 61 km of red (intermediate), and 23 km of black (difficult) runs, plus 179 km of marked ski routes, serviced by 57 modern lifts. The area boasts dedicated snowparks, such as the Hornpark for freestyle enthusiasts, and numerous ski schools. The legendary Streif downhill course on the Hahnenkamm, with its notorious Mausefalle, Hausbergkante, and Zielsprung sections, is a bucket-list challenge for expert skiers (outside of race times) and a spectacle to behold. Ski season typically runs from early December to early April, often extending to mid-April on higher slopes.
