Access, Parking Kitzsteinhorn/​Maiskogel – Kaprun

The ski resort is located in the Zell am See-Kaprun holiday region and can be accessed by motorway from Wörgl, Siegsdorf (no tolls via Germany) and Bischofshofen. The nearest motorway is around 50 kilometres away (Bischofshofen). In the 2019/2020 season, a continuous cable car link was introduced from Kaprun via the Maiskogel to the Kitzsteinhorn. This makes it possible for visitors to enter the ski area either directly in Kaprun or at the glacier lifts. In Kaprun, the base station of the MK Maiskogelbahn lift is located directly at the outskirts of the town in the Kaprun Center. From Kaprun, a 7 kilometre drive along a mountain road takes you to the glacier lifts (Gletscherjet 1/Panoramabahn) from Kaprun. Free parking is available at both entrance points. Holidaymakers can take advantage of free ski buses in Zell am See and Kaprun.
