Welcome to Kaprun Ski Resort

  • Mellow ski runs for beginners and families
  • Traditional charm and non-skier activities
  • High-altitude glacier skiing all year round
Kaprun ski holidays are first-class for beginners and families. Set in a scenic river valley, Kaprun ski resort oozes classical Austrian charm. With gentle nursery slopes and a sweet mix of quiet blue runs, newbies will be cruising down the Miaskogel pistes or having fun in the welcoming family area in no time.
The smaller of the Zell am See-Kaprun ski area resorts, Kaprun is a haven for powder-hounds who will love carving up reds and blues down the scenic Kitzsteinhorn Glacier. The more adventurous will even find a few gnarly black runs and heaps of off-piste terrain to explore - with over 3000m of altitude, the powder in Kaprun can be mighty fine.
