2026 X Over Ride Kitzsteinhorn Challenger

Following 11 successful years of 3* and 4* FWT Qualifier events, the X OVER RIDE Kitzsteinhorn will host its third FWT Challenger event in 2026. Nestled in the Zell am See-Kaprun region, Kitzsteinhorn has firmly established itself as a premier freeride destination, owing to its extensive off-piste options that include expansive powder fields, breathtaking cliff drops and reliable snowfall.
