Kitzbühel

Kitzbühel's medieval centre — frescoed facades in butter yellow and oxblood red — might be the prettiest ski town in Austria, and it works beautifully on foot.

About this place

Winter walkers get around sixty kilometres of cleared paths, horse-drawn carriages and cafés serving proper Sachertorte, while the casino and boutiques absorb bad-weather days. Time a visit for late January and the Hahnenkamm race turns the whole town into a giddy alpine festival; book beds months ahead for that weekend.
