Kaprun stands for a vacation face to face with the Kitzsteinhorn glacier. This icy mountain giant has enchanted visitors from all over the world. It truly is an adventure for the entire family.

Kaprun can offer you holidays straight from a picture book. You can even ski if you come as early as autumn or as late as spring. The glacier skiing area, at an altitude of 2,900m, guarantees skiing pleasures of the highest order for ten months a year. The more level slopes of the nearby Maiskogel family mountain are perfect for beginners. Proceed deeper into the valley to experience the dam lakes.

The second landmark of Kaprun – alongside the aforementioned glacier – is its castle. Kaprun Castle, with centuries of history, is the figurehead of the holiday village in the Salzburg province. Today the castle, which was built in the 12th century, is used as a venue for numerous cultural event.

The Siegmund-Thun-Gorge shows the most spectacular aspects of nature. Swirling water, rugged cliffs and mossy wood – you’ll feel like you’ve been swept away to a completely different world. There is much to discover, for instance the signs and year dates that were chiselled into the rocks by lumberjacks a long, long time ago.
