Tips for rainy days in Zell am See-Kaprun

What to do in SalzburgerLand on rainy days? Go on a voyage of discovery at one of the region's many museums and learn exciting facts about history, nature and technology or customs in the Pinzgau region. Alternatively, rainy days are a great opportunity to unwind and treat yourself to a relaxing spa day. In Zell am See-Kaprun, the Tauern SPA with 20,000 square metres of wellness, sauna and spa area, the indoor pool or the numerous day spa options provide the best opportunity for this.

Shopping & excursions: activities in the rain

In the pedestrian zone of Zell am See and Kaprun, the sports and fashion retailers, the charming souvenir outlets and speciality shops are lined up side by side. Enjoying the shops on a long walk through town is just perfect on a gloomy day.
