  • So what's it like?

    A top Austrian resort both on and off the slopes

    Kitzbühel is one of the most architecturally exquisite ski towns of the Alps, with medieval archways, pastel-painted houses and cobbled streets. Offering a mixture of challenging terrain, great snow conditions and a unique ambience, this fashionable resort has got it all. The Hahnenkamm area, reached by gondola from the centre of Kitzbühel, is also the stage for the mighty Hahnenkamm race, taking place 20-22nd January 2012 (dates tbc). The stylish town is buzzing with atmosphere, and it is no wonder Kitzbühel has been one of Austria's top ski resorts for so many years.

    Ski information

    Beginners

    The wide open nursery slopes at the bottom of the Hahnenkamm gondola, close to the town centre, are where the famous 'Red Devils' ski school meet. These nursery slopes provide the perfect introduction to skiing. The Kitzbüheler Horn also offers some great wide, undemanding blue runs.

    Intermediates

    Amidst the wealth of slopes on the huge ski circus, linked by an efficient lift system and a free ski bus service, intermediates are in their element - the swooping, wooded runs of the Ehrenbachhöhe and the exhilarating descents of the Kitzbüheler Horn and the Bärenbachkogel at Jochberg, to name but a few of the challenging and manageable pistes in store for the competent skier.

    Advanced

    Proficient skiers will certainly want to test their skills on the 'Hahnenkamm Streif', considered by many to be the most testing of all the international racing pistes. If you dream of gigantic moguls and exhilarating off-piste, the Ehrenbachhöhe is not to be missed.
