    A pretty mountain town known for its medieval fortresses and summer walking routes, holidays to Kaprun offer so much to see and do.

    Kaprun calling

    Set within the boundaries of the Hohe Tauern National Park, Kaprun is the place to go for exploring the lush Austrian outdoors. Kaprun is a paradise for walkers, with mile upon mile of trails through blooming meadows all the way up to the peak of Maiskogel and the Kitzsteinhorn glacier.

    In town and beyond

    The 12th-century Kaprun Castle is one of the oldest in the Salzburg area and gives a fascinating insight into the Pingzau region’s turbulent history. The lake town of Zell am See is a short bus ride away and makes for a lovely day’s exploring. And closer to home, there’s a good selection of quiet bars and cafés, with regular live music events to set the mood all across Kaprun.

    Good to know

    There won’t be a rep based in your resort, but a rep will meet you at the airport when you arrive and get you on your way. If you’ve got any questions during your holiday, you can call our 24/7 TUI Service Centre at any time.

    Out and about

    Here are some ideas of things to do when staying in Kaprun:

    • Beautiful Lake Zell

      Kaprun’s nearest beaches are on Lake Zell – one of the most beautiful lakes in Europe – at Thumersbach, Seespitz and Zell am See. They can be reached by car, bike or bus. Each beach has its own personality and offers different facilities.

    • Best for families

      Seespitz Lido sits on the southern bank of Lake Zell, and is generally quiet but great for families. There’s a small stretch of sand, a diving board, playground, waterslide, fountains, tennis court and watersports.

    • Lakeside fun

      Zell am See Lido is the biggest on the lake. It comes with a minigolf course, boat hire, café, waterslide and diving platform. Thumerbach Lido sits on the eastern bank of the lake and is easily accessible by car. It has a stunning natural beach skirting an idyllic cove, and a host of fun watersports.

    • Bargain Buys

      From June to September, Kaprun holds a Genuss market at Salzburger Platz from 5pm until 10pm. It's the perfect place to nab a bargain souvenir, and you can sample regional produce like bacon, honey, cheese and schnapps.

    • Mid-Range Buys

      Kaprun has a small collection of shops to browse, like a traditional Austrian dress store and a big fashion and sports shop that sells casual clothing and activewear.

    • Laid-back evenings

      Take an evening stroll and soak up Kaprun’s chocolate-box scenery.

    • Lively evenings

      For a livelier evening pop into the centre of town and have a couple of tasty cocktails at Cantina Bar Zucchini. Or if you’re feeling particularly adventurous, head over to nearby Zell am See.

    • Eating out

      Kaprun, like Zell am See, has everything from traditional pubs to modern Austrian coffee houses, all with top-class hospitality – especially in the rustic inns in the mountains. Restaurants, bars and cafés are dotted around, with lots by the river so you can relax and listen to the gurgling water, as well as a good few in the centre of town too.

    • Feel at home at Alpengasthaus Glocknerblick

      Up the mountain is Alpengasthaus Glocknerblick, a homely hut with extremely friendly owners and staff. There are amazing views of the mountains and the valley from here and the strudel is highly recommended.

    • Themed fun at Kitsch & Bitter

      Located in the centre of town is Kitsch & Bitter, a moose-themed restaurant and bar which holds numerous themed nights with live music, BBQs and karaoke. Look out for the elk as you walk down the stairs to the toilets.

    • Comfort food at Hilberger’s Beisl

      A short walk away is Hilberger’s Beisl – look out for the bright green sign that ribbons the building. Inside, the décor is warming and traditional and they serve appetising Italian and Austrian dishes.

    • On foot

      The town is ideal for exploring on foot, so you can take your time and admire the beautiful medieval architecture. Outside town, you can explore trails all over the Hohe Tauern National Park.

    • Ferries

      From neighbouring Zell am See, you can take leisurely boat rides out over the lake. A back-and-forth crossing service runs to Thummersbach, or there’s a round trip service that stops at six locations on the way.

    • Trains

      The nearest station is in Zell am See, where you can hop on a train to Kitzbühel (55 minutes), Salzburg (1 hour 40 minutes) or Bad Gastein (1 hour 30 minutes). If it’s beautiful views you want, the Pingzau Bahn train to Mittersil is a very scenic journey.

    • Buses

      The local service is excellent and runs regularly to Zell am See and the Kitzsteinhorn glacier.

    • Summer lifts

      Nearby lifts run throughout the summer to whisk you up to Maiskogel and the Kitzsteinhorn glacier.

    • Walking

      Given its location, nestled in the Hohe Tauern National Park, Kaprun was bound to become a haven for walkers and hikers. There are ample riverside paths and meadow trails, all with incredible views of the park and mountains. If you want to see even more of the area, you can catch the bus to Zell am See and stroll all the way around it’s sparkling lake. Or walk halfway and take a boat back.

    • Unterberg Alm

      This gentle route is good for all ages and abilities, including families. Hop on the hiking bus to the Maiskogel Alm and look for signs for the Unterberg Alm. A 30-minute walk will bring you around the back of the Maiskogel to a small mountain hut where you can buy homemade cheeses and local meats. Stop here to take in the wonderful views of Kaprun and Lake Zell, and then follow the same path back.

    • Emerald Path in Habachtal Valley

      Visit the Hohe Tauern National Park and explore the Emerald Path. Branching off from the wide road just after the Habachtal car park in Bramberg, the trail leads alongside the splashing waters of the Habach. At the Grüner Boden, you'll find lots of information about the different types of minerals found in Habachtal, as well as about a local folklore figure known as the Venedigermandl. Across the bridge over the stream, the Emerald Path ambles past natural springs.
