The village of Kössen

Tyrol, a wonderfull place

Kössen, centrally situated within the triangle Innsbruck, Salzburg, Munich is flanked by the rocks of the Kaiser mountain range and the rounded hills of the Kitzbühel Alpine ridge.

The colourful "Lüftlmalereien" (murals) on house fronts in the village centre's traffic restricted zones are a feast for the eyes. Kössen is the largest village in Tyrol's Kaiserwinkl region and has much to offer year-round.

In summer

Kössen is an ideal starting point for walks and mountain tours. For the more sportive, there are climbing excursions, MTB tours taking you to altitudes where the air is thin, or perhaps you would prefer to have a bird's-eye view of the "Kaiserwinkl".

The very sportive will get a special kick out of a rafting or canyoning tour. The "Kaiserwinkl" adventure club has a lot more spicy leisure time ideas on its activity programme.

Two renowned 18-hole golf courses will delight golfing enthusiasts. There are 6 other golf courses within a 30km radius.

The adventure forest pool includes a slide, water mushroom, bubble pool, many playground apparatus as well as a lawn to relax on. Kössen and the "Kaiserwinkl" region take particular care of their young guests.

There is a  programme specially designed for kids including a fun festival, a competition and events. Many excursions are specially planned with families and kids in mind.
