The K-onnection of the future
This connection makes a generational dream come true.
Directly from Kaprun with two new cable cars to the Maiskogel and from there quickly and comfortably to the Langwiedboden in the glacier ski area Kitzsteinhorn.
That means: ski-in-ski-out, 100% guaranteed snow from October to spring and a wide variety of new offer options – invaluable advantages that further strengthen the status of Zell am See-Kaprun as a top destination in the Alps. For family holidays as well as for demanding winter sports and high-alpine sightseeing up to TOP OF SALZBURG at 3,029 meters.
From December 2019, a state-of-the-art three-lane aerial tramway, the 3K Kaprun-Kitzsteinhorn K-onnection, will connect the Maiskogel with the Kitzsteinhorn. With this new k-onnection the family ski area Maiskogel merges with the glacier ski area Kitzsteinhorn to a fascinating unity. But it is not just this additional, second access to the Kitzsteinhorn, which makes the holiday in Kaprun even more attractive. The Maiskogel shines in new splendor.
