    A hiking and biking paradise between the Kitzbüheler Horn and the Wilde Kaiser mountains

    The magnificent landscapes of the Kitzbühel Alps are best experienced the active way. Hike or walk across the alpine pastures (with or without a guide), discover romantic mountain lakes and waterfalls or gorges and ravines, all on well-marked trails, before stopping at a hut for a hearty Tirolean mountain lunch. Looking for an extra challenge? Make climbing your new favourite holiday activity.

    If you travel with kids in tow, pencil in a visit at the Moor & Moore Adventure World, take a family-friendly themed hike, or hit one of the outdoor pools with slides. And should you be looking for that special adrenaline rush, St. Johann in Tirol has you covered, too: try paragliding and parachuting or ballooning, canyoning and rafting.
