Winter at the Wilder Kaiser

Welcome to the Wilder Kaiser

Just over an hour from Innsbruck, Salzburg or Munich, the Kaiser Mountains rise in the eastern part of the Tyrol. The Wilder Kaiser massif lies roughly between Kitzbühel and Kufstein, with the four Kaiser towns – Ellmau, Going, Scheffau and Söll – nestled on its sunny side.

Snow-covered slopes of the Wilder Kaiser region, with the majestic mountain range in the background, under a clear blue sky, surrounded by pine trees.

Whether with family, as a couple, with friends or on your own – the region’s breathtaking natural setting and unique mountain experiences, combined with a rich variety of activities, inspire a deep sense of joy and renewed zest for life.
