glacier in Kaprun

ICE ARENA

The ICE ARENA sits on the Kitzsteinhorn glacier above Kaprun, Austria's most reliable year-round snow zone and one of only a handful of glacier skiing areas in the Alps that operates in summer. At around 3,000 meters, the snow terrain here covers sledding, tube sliding, and freestyle snow activities independent of the ski season below.

On the Kitzsteinhorn glacier above Kaprun, the ICE ARENA offers snow activities year-round, one of the few places in Austria where you can go sledding in July. Reached by cable car from Kaprun, which is a short transfer from Zell am See, it suits families and non-skiers who want glacier terrain without a ski pass. Check the official Kitzsteinhorn website for current hours and lift prices.
