It is situated in a valley of the Hohe Tauern mountain range, west of the Ankogel Group, which stretches southwards down to neighbouring Obervellach.
The mountainous area comprises the southern ranges of the Hohe Tauern and the western Gurktal Alps (Nock Mountains), as well as the broad Drava Valley and the northern slopes of the Gailtal Alps.
In the late 1920s the German AEG company and the Salzburg state government developed plans for a Hohe Tauern hydroelectricity power plant, including two reservoirs in the Kaprun Valley.
