Freeriding and Off-Piste in the Kitzbüheler Alpen
The Kitzbüheler Alpen is one of the largest ski regions in the world. Many dep-snow enthusiasts find their way to this area, in search of different terrain away from the prepared slopes. In particular the ski areas of Kitzbühel, Saalbach-Hinterglemm-Leogang, Fieberbrunn and of course the glacier ski area of the Kitzsteinhorn have made a name for themselves on the freeriding scene..
