Kitzbühel and skiing: they’re practically synonymous. This destination is timeless and legendary, and skiing is its star!

Fifty-seven cable cars and lifts unlock the gates to 233km of prepared slopes and grandiose freeriding. The easily accessible backcountry extends over the provinces of Tyrol and Salzburg and for decades has been a hot tip for deep snow freaks. FSC recommends you only venture off-piste fully equipped and with a qualified guide.

Take the opportunity to scare yourself on the world-famous “Streif”, you can take the Family Streif which snakes its way around the extremely steep part.

We will be staying at Gasthof Schweizerhaus in Stuhlfelden. From there we take a short ride on the local train to the Panaramabahn Kitzbuheler Alpen to whisk us to the excellent skiing on the relatively uncrowded Resterhöhe. You can either simply enjoy that area or cut across to the spectacular 3S gondola to the outstanding skiing of the main area – Pengelstein. Make sure you allow enough time to get back for a sauna and good home cooking at the Schweizerhaus.
