De 3K K-onnection in Kaprun: een mijlpaal in het alpiene toerisme
Met een hoogteverschil van 2.261 meter behoort de kabelbaanverbinding Kaprun – Maiskogel – Kitzsteinhorn tot de meest indrukwekkende in de Oost-Alpen. Zes kabelbanen verbinden het dorpscentrum van Kaprun op 768 meter hoogte rechtstreeks met het hoogste punt in SalzburgerLand dat per kabelbaan bereikbaar is — de Kitzsteinhorn op 3.029 meter.
Tijdens de rit doorkruis je vier klimaatzones en geniet je van spectaculaire panorama’s — van besneeuwde bergtoppen en alpine naaldbossen tot het schitterende uitzicht op de Zeller See.
On the 15th of April I’ve had a private 2 hours long lesson with a wonderful English instructor named Jim. I’m an advanced skier but I’m totally out of touch with today’s way of skiing as I’ve learned how to ski in the 70’s and haven’t skied since. Jim took one look at my skiing and started to show me how to improve. We’ve practiced for 2 hours and by the end of the lesson I really felt the difference. I was able to use the architecture of new generation skis, my upper body gotten quiet under Jim’s watchful eye. He was patient and clear with his instructions, easy to get along with a great personality to match. Jim gave me the foundations on which I could build a better quality skiing. And indeed I did. For the remainder of the day I practiced everything Jim told me and my skiing really improved. Thank you, Jim
