Tauern Spa-world-Kaprun
Another great reason to visit the area will be the opening of a brand new spa complex , it will is called Tauern Spa-world-Kaprun, the cost of the development comes in at around 85 million euro.
The spa covers a site of 18,600 metres square and with a water recreation area of 2060 metres square. It promises to be a superb enhancement to the area, make it an even more attractive place to holiday throughout the year.
The site of the spa is just a few minutes walk from the center of Kaprun, it sits in the valley bottom, surrounded my majestic mountains, and a stunning view of the Kitzsteinhorn glacier with its glacier.
I feel sure that it will be worth the wait to visit.
