Itinerary

NATURAL SNOW AND ICE THROUGHOUT THE YEAR – WALK ON or PLAY IN THE SNOW
Driving via a stretch of Germany up a valley through Bavarian countryside in Germany (Please carry your passport with you) crossing back into Austria, passing the village of Lofer and the town of Saalfelden we reach the Alpine town of Zell am See, a world famous tourist destination as well as a climatic health resort since 1961. It is picturesquely situated between Lake Zellersee and the mountain Schmittenhöhe. Just further on, outside the little village of Kaprun you will take the lift system up the mountain, a succession of lifts to reach the summit station, Gipfelwelt 3000, at 3029m (9938ft) directly above the glacier of Mount Kitzsteinhorn, covered with natural snow throughout the year.
At Gipfelwelt 3000 several options are at your disposal:
Catch the views from the Summit station rooftop viewing platform.
Strolling on the glacier, make a snow man or have a snowball fight.
Walk through the panorama tunnel lined with various information stations to the other side of the peak. From the panorama terrace Glocknerkanzel you can have a breathtaking view onto Austria’s highest mountain Großglockner and many other snow capped peaks of the Alps, most of them not so far away.
Enjoy the fabulous scenery with a drink or a snack at the panorama restaurant.
There is also a film show called “Kitzsteinhorn – The Nature”.
On our return journey to Salzburg is simply to go with the flow, following the Salzach downstream, this route brings us through Pongau passing its regional capital St. Johan im Pongau, passing the big ski jump at Bishopshofen and the Werfen Castle as seen in the 1968 film Where Eagles Dare. In the cliffs above the castle are the famous Werfen Ice Caves. Still following the Salzach we come back into Salzburg City.
