From the breathtaking Schwarzsee Lake to unmissable wildlife, we spotlight the essential landmark attractions in Kitzbühel.
Schwarzsee Lake
Early morning exercise helps to get the circulation going and wakes up the body, and those who complete their morning training session or an early walk around the breathtaking Schwarzsee Lake will automatically receive an unbeatable natural high from the sumptuous surroundings. When the first rays of sunlight emerge from behind the Kitzbüheler Horn, the nature reserve is still wonderfully quiet. Due to the fresh temperatures, the morning fog still wafts over the alpine water in the quiet of the morning and immerses the scenery in a mystical, mountainous atmosphere.
A dreamlike circular path of about two and a half kilometres leads once around the lake and is suitable for a morning walk as well as for a sporty jog around. For those who want to move a bit more, there is a beautiful forestry trail on the eastern shore. A dip in the cool water rounds off the perfect morning routine.
Aurach Wildlife Park
Open all year round, the Aurach Wildlife Park is a truly beautiful slice of nature nestled above the small village of Aurach. Lovingly tended for several generations by the Pletzer family, the largest wild animal outdoor enclosure in Tyrol impresses with over 350 different majestic creatures. From red deer to yaks, donkeys, and kangaroos – a wide range of incredible species have found a home here. New fluffy friends can be found in the petting stall, while delicious delicacies and a good cup of coffee in the Brandnerhofstube round off the unique excursion.
