Innsbruck to Kitzbühel by train

Kitzbühel is around 90km from Innsbruck, so its beyond the reach of the city's local train network.
Therefore by far the most frequent option for taking the train to the resort involves making a connection between two regional trains at Worgl station, where making the transfer between the two trains is typically as simple as can be.

Taking this journey option with a transfer is the only means of reaching Kitzbühel by train from Innsbruck in most hours of the day, but there are a handful of direct trains.
If you can depart before 12:30 there are two daily direct express trains available.
Also on Mon-Sat there is a direct regional train which is typically due to depart Innsbruck at around 16:20.
