Kaltenbach, Austria

Kaltenbach is a ski resort located in the heart of Tyrol in Austria. In the valley called Zillertal you will find several small villages, and today many of them are linked by the lift system. One of these is Kaltenbach. Spending one's skiing holiday in Kaltenbach will therefore not limit you to Kaltenbach only, but also open up for exploring other areas.

The resort is perhaps not one of the most famous in the area, but it expands and grows every year. Nowadays Kaltenbach is interconnected with Hochzillertal and Hochfügens ski areas which makes the total ski area one of the largest in the Ziller Valley.

Kaltenbach – Wonderful slopes of intermediate level

Kaltenbach does provide slopes for skiers of all levels, even though the majority are targeted at intermediate or beginner skiers. In case you are looking for steep black slopes or advanced off-piste skiing you should visit one of the nearby areas.

Kaltenbach really suits families with children that want to mix good skiing with a relaxing atmosphere.

Kaltenbach is located at the lower region of the Ziller Valley. Consequently the snow cover is less certain there than in higher located ski resorts. Sometimes you can’t ski all the way down into the village, but it isn’t really a problem as a Gondola runs and can take you down. On the contrary, the low altitude also brings slightly warmer weather which is an advantage if you are taking young children that can’t stay out when very cold.
