CLIMBING IN KAPRUN AND SURROUNDINGS
The way is the goal
The unique feeling of freedom in the mountain landscape of Zell am See-Kaprun. Already at the foot of the rock massifs near Zell am See and Kaprun you will find various climbing opportunities. But if you want to go higher, go to the Kitzsteinhorn in Kaprun and there just a few minutes walk from the Alpincenter you will find two outstanding climbing areas.
There you will find 70 routes to choose from in solid, holey greenstone at various levels of difficulty. Very popular are also the terrains of the glacial lake plates with 30 routes in smoothly polished limestone mica schist. Climbing in Kaprun therefore offers a varied program.
With the Kitzsteinhorn mountain and valley ticket to the Alpine Center you can reach the climbing areas Rettenwand and Gletscherseeplatten easily and comfortably.
