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.

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.
