Holiday in the region of Zell am See-Kaprun

Mountains, lake and glacier

A sparkling lake, a snow-covered glacier, and the green meadows of the surrounding mountains: this breathtaking diversity makes Zell am See-Kaprun absolutely unique. Nowhere else in Austria does nature have more to offer than here.

Formerly known as the "Europa Sport Region" the region is well known as "Zell am See-Kaprun" nowadays. It is just a stone's throw from picturesque Schmittenhöhe to Lake Zell. On the shores of one of Europe's clearest bathing lakes, holidaymakers can take a deep breath and enjoy the fresh air of the climatic health resort Zell am See. From here, it is only a few minutes to the glacier of Kitzsteinhorn, the only glacier in the entire province of Salzburg. On its plateau at an altitude of 3,029 metres above sea level, you are awaited by perpetual ice. Snow can be taken for granted in the winter as well as in the summer months here. Enjoy the extraordinary luxury to be able to go skiing all around the year!

At this altitude, you have a spectacular view of the entire beauty of Austria. The Peakworld 3000 unveils an unforgettable panorama of 30 summits of above 3,000 metres, among them mighty Grossglockner, to you. Mind you: the delightful wellness offers down in the valley are as amazing as the view of the Alps. At indoor pools such as Kaprun's 'Tauern Spa', you can recharge your batteries.
