The "Ronachkopf" ski touring mountain is even reserved exclusively for ski tourers and winter hikers - without a cable car, but with a groomed downhill run. In addition, there are also two marked ascent routes on the Kitzsteinhorn glacier - Eisbrecher (Icebreaker) and Schneekönigin (Snow Queen) - and a ski touring route on the Maiskogel in Kaprun.

This triad sounds unique. First: Wide glacier slopes and views of the Hohe Tauern National Park from Gipfelwelt 3000 on the Kitzsteinhorn; Second: Winter fun with lake views from the pistes on the Schmittenhöhe panorama and family mountain; Third: The wintry Lake Zell for romantic walks or a boat trip in Advent or on New Year's Eve.
