Glacier Spring Festival

May 2, 2026

As spring slowly climbs from the valley to above 2,000 meters, Kitzsteinhorn welcomes it in style with fine firn on wide glacier slopes, a free ski demo, and culinary highlights paired with feel-good sounds. The perfect setting to celebrate a great winter season at Kitzsteinhorn and kick off glacier spring with sun-drenched ski days through May 25.

All season passes valid through May 3
