The New Guest Card
The most legendary sports town in the Alps stands for alpine diversity, short distances and experiences that can be tailored entirely to your own preferences. This year, a Kitzbühel holiday opens up new “mountain perspectives”. That’s because the Kitzbühel Guest Card – the KitzCard – is being enhanced with a particularly attractive new benefit.
New this year:
In the months of May, June, September and October, the KitzCard includes one free ascent and descent per person per day on the Kitzbühel cable cars – valid from the first day of your holiday and during regular operating hours. This makes access to Kitzbühel’s alpine world of experiences even more natural, convenient and immediate.
(Special and evening rides, as well as bike transport, are excluded.)
This new highlight complements the KitzCard’s already extensive range of discounts and inclusive services: reduced green fees, discounted admission to the Aquarena and the Wildpark Aurach, attractive benefits at sports rental shops, free participation in guided hikes – and much more.
This year, the KitzCard offers even more quality, even more experiences and even more freedom –
day after day. Mountain after mountain.
