Ski holidays Kössen - the holiday experience!

The impressive massifs of both Wilder and Zahmer Kaiser form the spectacular setting for the region of Kaiserwinkl with its winter sports resorts. The region which is directly on the border to Germany has recently developed into a true winter sport paradise. In total, 30 kilometres of piste provide an attractive range for skiers as well as snowboarders. The longest of these pistes measures 7 km and has a difference in altitude of over 1,100 m! Cross-country skiers will find all types of cross-country trails on one of Europe's largest cross-country trail networks. Along with this there is excellent après ski and a wide range of leisure activities. Kössen - the holiday experience!

Centrally located Kössen (589 m) is Kaiserwinkel’s main resort. The cosy Tyrolean village is located north of the Unterberghorn and offers everything a winter sports fan’s heart desires. Kössen is especially suited for families and relaxed skiers, as well as for cross-country skiers. The self-named “family ski area” doesn’t only offer fun on the slopes. The lively centre invites guests to take a stroll or visit restaurants or cafes. Cosy huts are perfect for bringing the evening to an end. Action freaks can take advantage of snow tubing or paragliding, as well.
