Kitzbüheler Horn
A viewpoint mountain just under 2,000 meters high east of town, with summit panoramas, an alpine plant garden, and a winding cycling road.
The Kitzbüheler Horn rises to about 1,996 meters, and the TV tower on its summit is a landmark of the town. On clear days you can see the Großglockner, the Großvenediger, and the Wilder Kaiser range. In summer, take the Horn cable car up. At about 1,880 meters, the Alpenblumengarten (Alpine Flower Garden) displays hundreds of alpine plants, which bloom best in June and July. The slopes also have alpine huts and several hiking routes. The winding Horn road is a famous cycling challenge with very steep sections. In winter, the mountain is a sunny ski area with gentler slopes, suitable for intermediate and beginner skiers.
