Königsleiten lies along the Gerlos Pass route between Salzburg’s upper Salzach valley and Tyrol’s Zillertal, a high-altitude settlement surrounded by alpine slopes and forest. At about 1,600 metres above sea level, it forms part of the Zillertal Arena, a ski and hiking area extending across the provincial border. The pass road is an important connection between Pinzgau and the Zillertal, while the Krimml Waterfalls in neighbouring Krimml rank among Austria’s most recognised natural landmarks. Königsleiten’s hotels, apartments and mountain lifts reflect its role as a year-round Alpine holiday base. Browse nearby webcams to discover other corners of Salzburg’s Pinzgau.
