Winter sports resort known internationally, Hahnenkamm and Kitzbüheler Horn.

Get to know the place
Kitzbühel is known for skiing, but also allows a summer trip between the historic center, lake and mountains. Hahnenkamm and Kitzbüheler Horn sit on opposite sides of the valley and call for distinct programs. The train station makes arrival to Tyrol easier.
The Streif gives sporting context to the Hahnenkamm. Exploring the area on foot requires choosing routes by slope, not assuming the race descent is an easy walk. On the Horn, high-altitude accesses and vegetation add another reading of the landscape.
The Schwarzsee offers a nearby, lower alternative for arrival day or for a day with variable weather. The operation of each cableway should guide your plans.
This destination brings together 1 city: Kitzbühel.

The local experience
The Hahnenkamm is Kitzbühel’s mountain associated with the Streif piste and ski competitions. Outside winter, trails let you recognise the terrain used by the sport.
The Kitzbüheler Horn rises on the opposite side of the valley from the Hahnenkamm. The mountain allows views over Kitzbühel and the alpine ranges from a different perspective.
The Schwarzsee is close to Kitzbühel, in a lake and vegetation area with mountains in the background. It is a lower-altitude alternative to the routes on the Hahnenkamm and the Horn.
Before you go
A little planning leaves more time to enjoy the journey.
June to September usually favors summer routes. December to March concentrates skiing depending on conditions; between seasons, confirm each service.
The seasons shown are the most usual ones; nature doesn't always follow the calendar.
Three days to split between mountains, center and lake.
The center brings together restaurants and the Hahnenkammbahn. The area around the main station favors rail arrivals; compare the walk to the access points for each mountain.
Take your trash with you, follow the signs and support local businesses. In natural areas, follow the visiting guidelines.

Switching sides of the valley reduces available time on the trails. Separating the visits lets you choose the time and extent of each outing.
