Goodbye winter blues: Book your summer holiday now & savor the anticipation!

Experience all seasons in different climatic zones in one day - this is only possible in Zell am See-Kaprun. Whizz across the glacier snow at over 3,000 m above sea level in the Ice Arena on the Kitzsteinhorn in the morning, marvel at the panorama from the Schmittenhöhe with its flowering meadows and green forests in the afternoon. And for cooling down in between there is Lake Zell with water of excellent quality.

Mountain sports? Check! Water sports? Check! Action sports? Check! Whether hiking or golfing, trail running or mountain biking, paragliding or stand-up paddling - Zell am See-Kaprun is an Eldorado for amateur and professional athletes. Try out something new, and choose something from the diverse weekly programme, including guided summit tours, yoga and more. You can cheer on the athletes at unique sports events such as IRONMAN 70.3 or Grossglockner Ultra-Trail. Or would you rather take part yourself?

Zell am See-Kaprun in summer stands for pure lightness, joie de vivre and enjoyment on all levels. The calm of the lake in the early morning, the view from the mountains as well as the alpine cuisine will put a smile on your face. Culinary delights are served at nine Gault Millau awarded restaurants in the region, while wonderful gourmet locations in the valley and on the mountain invite to stop and enjoy regional specialities. Those looking for regeneration and relaxation after a day full of activities will find it at the Tauern SPA with pools, saunas, steam baths and more.

The region's local mountains - Schmittenhöhe, Kitzsteinhorn with its glacier and Maiskogel – await with a multitude of possibilities. Experience nature on the "Top of Salzburg" viewing platform or on a family hiking tour through "Schmidolin's" world of adventure. The Sigmund Thun Gorge and the high mountain reservoirs promise unforgettable experiences between nature, action and panorama.

NEW: A viewing platform will open at the Schmittenhöhe upper terminus from summer 2024, inviting you to share unforgettable moments on social media.

The high quality of living in the environment between Lake Zell, with water of excellent quality, protected natural landscapes and forests should be preserved - for all locals as well as for our guests. That's why, for example, all the mountain railways in the region already run on 100% green electricity. Direct train services from numerous European cities straight to the train station in the centre of Zell am See and the Mobility Card, which entitles all overnight guests to free public transport from 1 May to 31 October, make it possible to get around without your own car.

The summer weekly programme in Zell am See-Kaprun leaves nothing to be desired: How about, for example, the summit tour "My first 3,000 m peak" on the 3,203 m high Kitzsteinhorn accompanied by a mountain guide? Or yoga with a view of 30 three-thousand-metre-high peaks on the Schmittenhöhe? Guided hiking & biking tours, golf taster courses and various other activities complement the diverse weekly programme.

If you travel to Zell am See-Kaprun in summer, you can safely leave your car at home, because all overnight guests in the region can use public transport for free with the Mobility Card. This way you can easily get to the excursion destinations in Pinzgau without your own car. Another highlight is the Zell am See-Kaprun Summer Card, which is included at participating partner establishments and reveals a unique variety of experiences with more than 40 attractions.
