Top 8 in Top 10 tourist attractions you should not miss when traveling in Austria.
One of the best places to ski in Austria, the popular resort town of Kitzbühel captivates snow lovers with its 170 kilometers of ski runs and slopes dotted with small mountain huts where they can stop feet to enjoy traditional Alpine snacks and hot drinks.
Although it is the site of the annual Hahnenkamm, the toughest of all downhill ski races, Kitzbühel has plenty of terrain for all skill levels in three ski areas and The smallest of these, Bichlalm, is dedicated to those who enjoy skiing.
But Kitzbühel isn't just for skiers. With frescoed walls and houses, and a backdrop of the snow-capped Alps, the town is as beautiful as the villages in the Alps.
The 1,998-meter-high Kitzbüheler Horn attracts skiers in the winter, is a favorite among hikers in the summer, and you can also reach the summit by cable car via Pletzeralm. It is considered one of the best viewing points in Tyrol: south from Radstädter Tauern to the Ötztal Alps; to the north, nearby Kaisergebirge; to the west, the Lechtal Alps; and to the east, Hochkönig.
To the south of the Kitzbüheler Horn rises the 1,772-meter-high Hornköpfli, also reachable by cable. In addition to the amazing views, at the top of the mountain you will find the Gipfelhaus, a unique mountaintop house; a chapel; a restaurant; and an Alpine garden.
