About Hotel Tauernhof
Hotel Tauernhof is a four-star property in Kaprun, Austria, offering direct ski-in, ski-out access alongside a full suite of on-site wellness facilities. Half board is included as standard, covering breakfast and evening meals, which removes the daily decision-making that can slow a ski trip down. The hotel's amenities run to a swimming pool, sauna, spa, and gym — a solid recovery setup after time on the mountain — plus a bar and garden for more relaxed evenings. The package available from 12th December 2026 covers seven nights and includes flights and transfers, making this a straightforward all-in option for those who prefer to travel without the logistics overhead. Kaprun sits beneath the Kitzsteinhorn glacier, one of Austria's most reliable early-season ski areas, which means snow cover in December is more dependable here than at many comparable resorts. The hotel's position close to the slopes keeps travel time between accommodation and skiing to a minimum.

Location
Kaprun sits in the Salzburg region of Austria, at the foot of the Kitzsteinhorn glacier — an advantage that gives it one of the longest ski seasons in the Alps, with the glacier terrain typically open from October through to spring. The town itself is compact and walkable, with a good selection of restaurants, bars, and shops within easy reach. Hotel Tauernhof's ski-in, ski-out positioning means guests can move between the hotel and the slopes without transfers or shuttle buses. The nearby Maiskogel area adds a gentler alternative for mixed-ability groups. Salzburg Airport is the most practical gateway, with road transfers to Kaprun taking around 90 minutes — a manageable journey, particularly when flights and transfers are pre-arranged as part of the package.

Kaprun is a historic alpine village nestled in the Pinzgau region of Salzburg, globally renowned for its access to the spectacular Kitzsteinhorn Glacier. Combined with the neighboring town of Zell am See, it forms one of Austria's premier ski destinations, offering a compelling mix of traditional charm and cutting-edge ski infrastructure. Recent developments, most notably the 3K K-onnection, now link the village directly to the glacier via the family-friendly Maiskogel mountain. The resort is a haven for snow-sure skiing, boasting a season that spans from autumn well into late spring thanks to altitudes exceeding 3,000 meters. Off the slopes, Kaprun offers a relaxed, authentic Austrian atmosphere with excellent wellness facilities, notably the world-class Tauern Spa, and a thriving but cozy dining scene. The village balances a lively après-ski culture with a family-friendly vibe, making it a versatile choice for a wide array of winter sports enthusiasts.
The Kitzsteinhorn Glacier offers wide, snow-sure carving pistes and designated freeride routes with spectacular high-alpine views. Down below, the Maiskogel mountain provides sheltered, family-friendly terrain directly accessible from the village, catering perfectly to beginners and intermediates.
