Kaprun/Kitzsteinhorn reviews

Best off-piste! Beautiful views! And now directly to the glacier from the "small" hill in the village with the new lift.

I was on an educational trip with the job during week 44 this year and the glacier did not disappoint me. Even though the system was not completely open, Kaprun offered hard ice, waist-high snow and fine
groomed slopes. The restaurants had good food and the view was not bad either.

Pre-season skiing autumn holiday v44 -2021. A little snow on arrival but the slopes on the glacier were open and in passable condition. Then it dumped 50 + 60 cm of snow and it was magically nice 2nd half of the week. Snow all the way down to the village. Off-piste skiing also worked in 60-90 cm of new powder snow, but in some places stones came out, but the piste skiing was perfect with fairly short lift queues. Kaprun is recommended for early season defrosting in Oct-Nov.

Fantastic lifts but also very crowded on the slopes. It may be that we were there at a time when the heat caused all the guests in surrounding areas to flock here but the queues for the lifts were unreasonable and the congestion in the slopes was a bit like that.

Superb skiing where the season starts early and lasts a long time! Very good off-piste skiing, you can go all the way down, but it is recommended to go with a guide then! Also good piste slopes

Awesome skiing with many options. Stayed at the Kitz Residenz and can really recomend it. Perfect for self-catering.

Hi there all ski- o snowboard friends. I thought I would only help all those who go to the Alps but do not know where you want to go. My only tip is Kaprun / Kitzsteinhorn. For those who control the snow and want to start expreining a little by jumping cliffs but not too big either, Kitzsteinhorn's offpiste is a Mecka for you. Fun park exists but may not be Europe's most lavish fun park. Two Big Jump and two shorter rails have it to offer. Ena Big Jumpet is quite meshed actually but good for beginners. Speaking, however, about opening up a larger park. For those who just want to drive fast, the "carpet" is available. Short o good about Kitz. Perfect for those who want to challenge the mountain on an equally risky challenge as a sure challenge ...

I've had some unforgettable trips on the kitzeinhorn. Easy offpiste is available but also more risky. The best snow is January but must be completed with good visibility and moderate wind otherwise it can be difficult to get around. At the beginning of the season you have to get the off-piste almost entirely to himself.

Went up and went on the glacier in mid June and thought it was a good ride. There was plenty of snow only down to the alpine center.
Best ride was the morning 9-11 after the snow was really heavy. It was not entirely wrong that you were almost alone in the piste the first hours.
Long flat slopes invited to great telemark rides with large turns at high speed.
Certainly, I come back to summer to enjoy some summer skiing.

Kitzsteinhorn is quite flat when compared to the average ridge in the other alps. The lifting capacity is good, especially from the valley station and up to the mountain. - It's a fairly new lift (the last train fire). Especially in spring there can be very many people, German on a weekend trip type. So be on time !! Cozy restaurants on the mountain. The ride on the glacier is quite ordinary but good, quite slippery though. Perfect for carving. Below the glacier, the slopes are a bit more fun and more varied.
You can definitely find offpiste, especially when it's snowing. Then there are stoora opportunities. Here, however, there have been many avalanches so be wise.
