Unique combination of glacier, mountain & lake

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.

A region made for amateur and professional athletes

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.

Pure alpine delight

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.

A more sustainable holiday

A more sustainable holiday

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.

A diverse weekly programme

A diverse weekly programme

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.
