Alpenhaus, Mountain restaurant and chairlift on Kitzbüheler Horn, Austria
The Alpenhaus is a mountain restaurant with a chairlift system located on Kitzbüheler Horn at about 1670 meters elevation. The facility includes dining rooms with terraces and a cable system that carries visitors across the slopes.
The restaurant was established in 1893 and has operated continuously since then. The chairlift was later added and completed in 1991 to provide easier access to the mountain.
The restaurant serves traditional Austrian dishes like spinach dumplings and Kaiserschmarrn in cozy rooms with traditional tiled stoves. Locals and visitors gather here to rest and eat after spending time on the mountain.
You can reach the Alpenhaus using the Hornbahn lift or by driving the panorama road, with the chairlift operating regularly during the season. Plan your visit depending on the season, as the facilities operate differently between winter and summer.
The terrace offers wide views over the Kitzbühel valley and surrounding mountain ridges on clear days. This panoramic outlook makes every visit a visual experience, whether you stop for a meal or just pass through.
