About Kitzbuhel
A longtime haunt of the European elite, Kitzbühel is beginning to emerge as a fantastic complement to the world-renowned ski resorts of the Arlberg region. And with its winning combination of medieval charm and state-of-the-art technology, that’s no surprise.
From its 14th-century church to its cobbled main street, Kitzbühel exudes Tyrolean history. Elegant boutiques and refined restaurants sit alongside an impressive selection of luxury ski chalets in Kitzbühel.
A Skiwelt lift pass provides access to three ski areas covering 450 kilometres of supremely varied terrain. That’s comparable in size to the Trois Vallées! The legendary Hahnenkamm downhill course runs right to the heart of the resort. Yet the slopes of the Kitzbüheler Horn offer wide and gentle runs that are perfect for beginners. Bichlalm, with its new lift system, offers itineraries for every level.
Already a favourite destination for discerning Austrians, this elegant jewel won’t stay hidden too long. Enjoy Kitzbühel’s understated, international charm while you can.
