Tour description

Have an amazing tour to the peak of the Kitzsteinhorn!

Take the Kitzsteinhorn cable car up to the “Top of Salzburg” panorama platform. Surrounded by 360-degree views, a steep hike leads from the Kitzsteinhorn summit station to the summit itself. (Hiring a local mountain guide is recommended for this path.) From the summit station, you’ll have to conquer just 200 metres of elevation gain via steel ropes up to 3,203m. Once arrived, you’ll be rewarded with an impressive mountain panorama – on a clear day, the horizon will seem almost infinite.
