If you’re after something a little distinct and unusual, then you’re in luck. The<br />
fabulous Adventure Lodge at Kaprun allows you to experience the rare sensation<br />
of sleeping in a giant barrel. This extraordinary chalet comes complete with three<br />
bedrooms and on the private terrace two utterly unique sleeping barrels, each<br />
with their own bathroom barrel and sauna barrel. We have no doubt you won’t<br />
ever forget the time you slept in a barrel.<br />
At Kaprun stunning mountain landscapes are a common sight but if you’re in<br />
the market for magnificent panoramic views then we recommend you check<br />
in to the appropriately named Flying Lodge. Built on stilts and up high, this<br />
lodge looks like it’s almost floating, and it’s this height that allows for such great<br />
views. There are currently two living units available within the lodge that can<br />
accommodate up to 10 people each. Expect alpine charm, modern ambience,<br />
and of course amazing views.<br />
The Mara Lodge at Kaprun offers a more<br />
affordable and value for money option.<br />
Within the Lodge there are nine rooms<br />
available, and despite the savings they<br />
still offer the same brilliant services.<br />
The Mara Lodge presents the perfect<br />
spot for those interested in a much<br />
longer stay or those looking to set up a<br />
central base in town.<br />
Finally, the newest addition to the<br />
Kaprun family, the Style Lodge. This<br />
modern lodge is home to four chic<br />
suites designed to envoke the artist<br />
in you. This includes magnificent<br />
penthouse suite that comes with a<br />
private glass sauna and whirlpool.<br />
Expect breath-taking panoramic views<br />
of the Kitzsteinhorn glacier.<br />
Further services can be arranged,<br />
and the staff are all too happy to<br />
help. Airport transfers, equipment<br />
rental, hiking tours, and ski lesson are<br />
available on request along with jacuzzi,<br />
bbq equipment, and open fireplaces for<br />
certain chalets.<br />
Going Green at Kaprun<br />
At Kaprun a core mission has<br />
always been to maintain the utmost<br />
integrity and stern dedication<br />
to sustainable and eco-friendly<br />
practices. All chalets were originally<br />
constructed using only locally<br />
sourced wood that’s harvested<br />
using sustainable methods.<br />
Other materials used in chalet<br />
construction were also sourced<br />
using local companies that are on<br />
board with a greener approach.<br />
To further this most open spaces<br />
are fully utilised as green areas<br />
with plenty of lush plants, and<br />
lovely flowers for guests to enjoy.<br />
Currently all issued company cars<br />
are electric, and all guests are<br />
welcome to a Kaprun-Zell am See<br />
travel card which allows unlimited<br />
use of public transport free-ofcharge.<br />
Things To Do<br />
The region is a ski lover’s dream, there are plenty of ski schools and rental shops around.<br />
The area is home several fine slopes with great options for beginners and experiences<br />
skiers alike. If skiing isn’t your thing however then worry not as there is still loads to do<br />
