Culinary Delights
Good food and drink on your holiday

Being sporty active, you really can enjoy food and drink with a clear conscience. A clear conscience is also the main ingredient in the Salzburger Land because regionality and local ingredients in Zell am See-Kaprun stand for best products, fine cuisine, local specialities and top quality gastronomy.
