The Kitzbuheler Alps ski area stretches from Pass Thurn, via Kitzbühel to Kirchberg, which is now also linked to Westendorf, part of the Ski Welt region, putting these resorts in the heart of one of the largest linked ski areas in Austria.

For mixed ability groups, they are the perfect destination. Beginners will find the attentive ski schools fill them with confidence to tackle the many blue runs, while intermediates are simply spoilt for choice.

The historic town centre of Kitzbühel has something for everyone. Its cobbled streets, lined with attractive traditional buildings, make it a beautiful place to stay. Inside its medieval walls, there are unlimited shopping opportunities, numerous cafés and restaurants, and in the evenings a bustling nightlife in the many bars and clubs.

A convenient and somewhat quieter alternative to the ‘Glitz of Kitz’ is neighbouring Kirchberg, situated 6km away. Although it may not have quite the same glamour, it does offer great quality hotels, convenient access to the fantastic ski area and good value.
