The KAT WALK Alpin winds through the Kitzbühel Alps over six stages, covering 106 kilometers and 6,350 meters of altitude gain.
An enjoyable and active Long-Distance Hiking Trail through the Kitzbühel Alps, leading over gentle grassy hills and well-signposted mountain trails—marked throughout with the KAT-Walk logo—that offer consistently magnificent panoramic views. The focus is on relaxed experiences of nature and culture, far from stress and the pressure to perform, accompanied by encounters with locals and local specialties. The trail is intended for experienced hikers who enjoy varied terrain and possess sure-footedness, basic mountaineering gear, and adequate physical fitness. There are no climbing sections; only on the Kitzbüheler Horn is there a short section secured by a rope. The Uphill Facilities shortcuts and places to stop for refreshments are convenient, offering a welcome opportunity to take a break, especially in the second half of the route.
