The moment when the day is still young and the light gently brushes across my slopes.
When dew sparkles in the grasses and the world falls silent, as if pausing to listen for an instant.
From the Bichlalm to the Schütz I stretch out – soft, wide, and full of secrets.
Who am I? The gentle Kitzbühel South Mountains.
I carry alpine roses and far-reaching views, I am home to marmots and a space for thought.
Sometimes, when the light travels far, my gaze drifts across – to the Hahnenkamm.
He, who has seen so much. Mausefalle. Starting gate. Commotion. Applause.
I see how the world admires him, how cameras turn towards him.
And I smile. Quietly.
I am different. I am not loud – but I am here. Patient. Steadfast.
And when, at the end of the hike, the view from the little chapel opens into the vastness, I know: I may not stand in the spotlight.
But I am seen – by those who truly look.

The Südberge - The gentle counterpart of the rugged Alps
The Kitzbühel Southern Mountains are the gentle, sunlit counterpart to the rugged peaks of the Hohe Tauern and the Zillertal Alps. Situated south of Kitzbühel, they shape the region with their green grassy slopes, wide alpine pastures and panoramic summits. Their rounded forms, shaped by slate rock, create a welcoming and easily accessible landscape – a true paradise for nature lovers.
The Südberge - Views that Enchant
From the Bichlalm up to the Gamshag and Schütz, wide panoramas unfold: the distinctive Kitzbüheler Horn, the legendary Hahnenkamm, and in the distance the majestic Hohe Tauern. Peaks such as the Gaisstein also offer vistas that remain unforgettable.
The Südberge - Experience nature with all your sences
In summer, the slopes transform into a glowing sea of alpine roses. Those who listen closely will hear the whistling of marmots living among the grassy hillsides. For hikers and mountain bikers, the Southern Mountains are just as much a dream destination as they are for skiers and ski tourers in winter, when the landscape is cloaked in sparkling white.
The Südberge - A film - and a promise
Our film captures the diversity of the Southern Mountains – yet the true magic can only be felt in person: when the mountain breeze sweeps across the pastures, the peaks glow in the evening light, and you realise that happiness can sometimes be so simple – a day in the Southern Mountains of Kitzbühel.
Die Kitzbühel Formel
Alpiner Lifestyle und idyllische Natur, urige Tradition und modernes Lebensgefühl: Kaum eine Stadt vereint diese Gegensätze so gekonnt wie Kitzbühel. Die Sporthauptstadt der Alpen wurde durch die legendären Hahnenkamm-Rennen weltberühmt, doch das ist nur eine Facette des Mythos Kitzbühel. Vielmehr ist es der unvergleichliche Charme der Region mit den Orten Kitzbühel, Reith, Aurach und Jochberg, die hervorragende Infrastruktur mit Top-Hotellerie und Gastronomie, die Vielzahl an sportlichen Möglichkeiten und die faszinierende Landschaft, die Kitzbühel so einzigartig machen.
