Kitzsteinhorn Glacier Skiing Day Trip

While not directly in Rauris, the Kitzsteinhorn glacier near Kaprun offers year-round skiing and is a popular day trip destination for Rauris visitors seeking high-altitude skiing or glacier experiences. The journey involves a scenic drive (approx. 45-60 minutes) to Kaprun, followed by a series of gondolas to reach the glacier plateau at over 3,000 meters. It offers guaranteed snow, stunning panoramic views, and a 'Top of Salzburg' viewing platform. Ski passes for Kitzsteinhorn are separate from Rauris but can be combined with regional passes. A truly epic mountain experience.
