Kaprun is known for good snow conditions thanks to the glacier, a good night life and beautiful surroundings. During summer the mountain and the flat valley open up to summer sports and events. New in Kaprun is the cabin lift that is open all year to take you up the Maiskogel and if desired also takes you to the Kitzsteinhorn glacier. As such it enlarges the skiing and snowboarding area during winter and in summer it opens more options to go hiking, biking or climbing. Zell am See is part of the same skiing region providing slopes which are largely surrounded by trees in contrast to the high alpine glacier area. This gives a great mixture of experiences during your winter sport holiday. In summer, Lake Zell is known as a warm (non-glacier) lake of drink water quality in which you can enjoy watersports during summer.
Kaprun itself offers two main skiing areas on the Kitzsteinhorn mountain and the Maiskogel mountain which areas have been connected by a cabin lift. From the center of Kaprun you first go up the Maiskogel and then continue, if desired, to the Kitzsteinhorn.
