Property in Königsleiten is highly sought after, with high-altitude skiing, breathtaking alpine views, and traditional Austrian charm.

Sitting at 1,600m in the heart of the Zillertal Arena, Königsleiten is an excellent place to look for ski-in, ski-out apartments and chalets, making it a prime location for both second homes / Zweitwohnsitz and investment or ‘buy-to-let’ properties.

Königsleiten retains a peaceful and authentic atmosphere, with its wooden chalets and family-friendly vibe appealing to those seeking a true alpine escape.

The south-facing aspect ensures that the village gets as much sunshine as possible and you can enjoy some excellent après-ski or al-fresco dining in the many bars and restaurants.

The centre of Königsleiten is the most desirable location, offering direct access to ski lifts, restaurants, and après-ski spots. Here, you’ll find traditional chalets alongside some newly built luxury rental apartments.

Thanks to its high altitude, snow conditions in Königsleiten are generally reliable throughout the season, ensuring strong demand for holiday rentals.

Additionally, Königsleiten’s compact layout means everything is within easy walking distance, making it a great option for those who prefer a car-free alpine experience.

Slightly away from the main lifts, the lower part of Königsleiten offers more spacious properties with stunning panoramic views of the surrounding Austrian mountains.

This area is popular with families looking for a high-altitude property in the Austrian Alps and easy access from Munich, Brussels and Amsterdam.

Expect to pay from around EUR 500,000 for a high-quality ‘buy-to-let’ apartment or from EUR 1,500,000 for a chalet. However, new Austrian second home laws mean that there has been no new construction of second homes since 2018 so you will need to find an existing second home for sale.
