Extensive snowmaking facilities – 800
snow cannons covering 97% of the slopes
– guarantee perfect conditions for that ski
holiday in Bad Kleinkirchheim.
Probably the most popular local resident is
the Olympic champion and skiing legend,
Franz Klammer, who has a downhill run and
a mountain restaurant named after him. The
“King of the Hills” still takes to the pistes with
skiers as part of “Ski vor 9 mit Franz” (Ski with
Franz before 9).
Cross-country skiing, toboggan runs and
extensive winter hiking – not to mention a
scenic setting, traditional hearty cuisine, and
relaxed, friendly hospitality – complete the
picture of Bad Kleinkirchheim as an exemplary
destination for winter fun.
Bad Kleinkirchheim is also an idyllic outdoor
playground in summer. Close to the Italian
and Slovenian borders and surrounded by the
majestic peaks of the Nockberge Mountains,
the region enjoys a mild climate.
