Kitzbühel old town

Car-free streets with oriels and Gothic gables in Tyrol

Kitzbühel is best known for skiing and the Hahnenkamm race, but in summer it is also a pleasant town for a stroll. The two main streets, Vorderstadt and Hinterstadt, are pedestrian areas. The houses have oriels and Gothic gables, and there are churches such as the Liebfrauenkirche and the parish church. There are also plenty of shops, from international brands to local specialities.

A loop through the old town takes about an hour and a half, more if you sit down somewhere. The town has a different feel from the villages in the Brixental: smarter and busier, with many terraces. It suits half a day and combines well with a cable car ride or walk on the Kitzbüheler Horn.
