Kaprun

Tucked into the Kaprun Valley beneath the Hohe Tauern, Kaprun is a place whose character is shaped by the high-alpine terrain of the Kitzsteinhorn. The 3,203-metre Kitzsteinhorn rises above the resort, while the Kapruner Ache flows down the valley towards the Salzach. Above the village, the Mooserboden and Wasserfallboden reservoirs form a major hydropower complex in the mountains. Medieval Kaprun Castle stands on a rocky rise, recalling the settlement’s older roots. Summer brings hiking and mountain-lift access towards the Maiskogel and glacier country; winter focuses on skiing and snow sports.
