Kitzbhel autumn. Pleasure for palate, spirit and body.

In the autumn, called the golden season, the heart of Kitzbuehel beats quietly and slowly. Finally it is time for rest and relaxation. People soak up power from the nature, enjoy the clean air. They feel refreshed and vivid. Energy flows back and whets the appetite for traditional culinary. Palate, spirit and body are in harmony in Kitzbhel - the most legendary city of sports in the Alps.

These days there is an awareness of tradition and of quality, in using produce from the region - Knowing where things come from - thats the maxim! Enjoy tasty treats such as baked liver dumplings, daumnidei with cabbage or stuffed beef roulade in our cosy Florianistube or in our winter garden!

For almost 100 years it has been our desire to offer our guests a holiday which is more than pleasurable - a holiday which you remember for a long time to come quite simply because it was so legendary. Admittedly our unique location in the middle of Kitzbhel has a part to play in this. ultimately not many people can say that they have the streif run finish and the city gates of Kitzbhel almost on their doorstep.

our legendary status is even in our name. It was Franz reisch, ski pioneer and co-founder of Kitzbhel as a sports town, who founded our hotel. And our indoor activities on offer are equally legendary - the culinary highlights in restaurant Kaiserstuben, the luxurious programme on offer in the wellness and spa area, along with the cosy suites and rooms. we look forward to welcoming you!

Alpine agriculture is also a vital part of the regions picture-postcard beauty. The significant contribution made by tyrolean farmers is manifested in almost every vista: it would be hard to imagine Kitzbhel without its quaint farmhouses, fencedin pastures, and hay barns, which play an important role in the life of the locals.

The routes are compiled in such a way that a hiker can arrive at their destination and not be exhausted, but have energy for contemplation en route and when they reach their destination. The routes have been planned in such a way that the variety of the natural surroundings can be experienced, something which always has a healing effect on body and soul and which is astonishing.

These are places where for the most part we can sense that there is a different energetic structure at play than we would otherwise find in our daily working lives. It is a network of energy in which we can feel safe and relax, yet which should also leave us feeling refreshed and alive. step by step you are invited to investigate and sense these special places, to experience this special effect.

The starting point is the free car park schradler in Jochberg. via the old triebweg path we get to s. w after approximately an hour, where an impressive play of water is on offer for us during the snowmelt period.

Full Moon Hike

Kitzbhel Bichln car park The hiking path proceeds via a side road to a slope which faces a south-westerly direction. starting in the district of bichln, to the south of the golf course at Kaps castle. Follow the road uphill to a bridge, which heads right across a stream. After this bridge its then uphill again to a forest. After this a hair-pin bend the route heads left out of the forest and for the rest of the route a dreamy view opens up to the moonlit mountains. After a few hundred metres, the brightly lit sonnbergstub`n up on the hillside will already be in your line of sight.
