Skiing at the Kitzsteinhorn Glacier / Austria

avatar

I just dug out some photos I took on a 3 days skiing trip with a friend on the Kitzsteinhorn Glacier/Austria in April 2015. This area is reaching up to 3000 meters above sea level which makes it a great place for spring time skiing. The panoramas are breathtaking, and if you avoid the weekends you can have just a few people on the wide slopes. There are also a lot of opportunities for skiing in the wild, however, you need to be careful about the risk of avalanches.
Enjoy the ride!
