    No difficult terrain at the Kitzsteinhorn

    The Kitzsteinhorn is famous for being snow sure. To that effect it is a desired destination for very skilled skiers and team skiers. Unfortunately the offer of slopes does not really live up to expectations. There is not one black (difficult) trail to be found in the entire ski resort. More than half of the trails are of easy (earmarked blue) level. Anyhow the Kitzsteinhorn will remain one of the most important ski resorts for expert skiers and boarders due to excellent snow conditions which allow ski fun beginning September. Worthy of praise are the permanent racing course at the Kessellift and the moguls at the Maurergletscherlifts.
