The Kaprun piste map shows the local ski area on the Maiskogel mountain and Kitzsteinhorn glacier plus the trails around Zell an See. Both ski resorts offer excellent skiing for all levels of skiier and boarder although Kaprun is more suited to intermediates and above.

For off-piste and back-country enthusiasts, the ski area offers an incredible amount of terrain. Ski touring using skins is very popular and the ski tours range from a day to several where you stay in the mountain huts overnight. A popular itineary is from the top of the glacier in to the Niedersill valley.
