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 />

such as hiking, cross-country ski runs, tobogganing, and a luxury spa.<br />

Kaprun is much more than a winter destination, and the summer here are equally<br />

as enjoyable. The breath-taking of the area is more apparent, the mountain, lakes,<br />

waterfalls, and valleys deserve to be explored. There are plenty of bike trails active in<br />

the summer, as well as hiking routes.<br />
