The Kitzsteinhorn is a mountain in the High Tauern range of the Central Eastern Alps in Austria.

The mountain is located north of the Alpine crest within the municipal area of Kaprun, Salzburg.

There is a restaurant and a panoramic terrace on the roof of the upper station, at 3,029 m (9,938 ft) above sea level.

[2] Skiing on Mt Kitzsteinhorn already began in the early 20th century, when the German and Austrian Alpine Club erected a mountain hut (Krefelder Hütte) in 1907-09.

An underground funicular railway was opened in 1974,[1] after two and a half years of building works to create the 3,295-metre (10,810 ft) long tunnel, to run in parallel with the cable car, for greater capacity.
