Time for you.

Space to recharge.

At the foot of the Kitzsteinhorn, glacial water from the Hohe Tauern National Park flows down into the valley – clear, cold and right through the heart of Kaprun, in the immediate vicinity of the TAUERN SPA. Our resort is part of Vitality World – and an integral part of the region. Its water works for us too...

We use river water from the Kapruner Ache and the Salzach to cool the resort. We generate our own electricity using our photovoltaic system. Any additional electricity we purchase is green electricity with guarantees of origin. Our energy management system is certified to ISO 50001. We source selected food products directly from the region via our long-standing local suppliers and partners.

You can find out how to reach us by train and bus before your stay. On site, there are hire bikes, e-bikes and e-bike charging points, each available for a fee.

We offer our staff a safe working environment, long-term career development and family-friendly benefits – recognised with the ‘berufundfamilie’ certificate and the national quality mark. The seminar area at TAUERN SPA has been awarded the Austrian Environmental Label as an event venue.
