The Kitzbühel Alps Card is now even more attractive: train travel is included in your holiday, and there are new ÖBB InterRegio connections from the south.

Last updated on 02.02.2026

The four regions of Hohe Salve, Brixental, St. Johann in Tirol and Pillerseetal continue to promote sustainable guest mobility. Starting in winter 2025/26, holidaymakers with the Kitzbühel Alps Card (guest card) will benefit from added value for car-free holiday planning, as rail travel in the region will be included in the guest card. Meanwhile, ÖBB is strengthening intra-Alpine connections with new InterRegio services, making climate-friendly travel to Tyrol easier, particularly via the Graz–Innsbruck route (IR “Ennstal”) and for guests travelling from Klagenfurt, who will need to change at Schwarzach-St. Veit.

The guest card serves as a ticket for rail travel

Guests will receive their personalised Kitzbüheler Alpen Card from their accommodation provider. Depending on the establishment, this may be available in digital form prior to arrival. For the duration of their stay, guests can use selected ÖBB local and InterRegio trains in the Kirchbichl–Wörgl–Hochfilzen corridor (except IC/EC/Railjet). This makes getting around much easier – ideal for excursions, changing locations, and a relaxed holiday without a car.

New ÖBB InterRegio connections: Travelling from the south is now more comfortable!

With the timetable change in 2025/26, ÖBB is expanding its intra-Alpine transport services with a new InterRegio route network. Passengers from Styria and Carinthia will benefit from additional direct connections between Graz and Innsbruck, offering better services and more convenient journeys to Wörgl, the gateway to the Kitzbühel Alps.

Werner Dilitz, ÖBB Regional Manager for Tyrol, said: ‘The new InterRegio connections mean shorter travel times, clear timetables and greater comfort. The high quality of the new timetable makes climate-friendly travel to the Kitzbühel Alps from the south more convenient than ever before.’

VVT Managing Director Alexander Jug emphasises: ‘The Kitzbühel Alps Card makes it easy to travel to the region and get around by train. It’s a win for the climate, comfort, and the holiday experience.”
