Austria > Zell am See

Located in Central Austria, Zell Am See features some of the most breathtaking scenery in Austria. The village fronts on a fresh water lake that freezes solid during the winter, providing an opportunity to ice skate, try you luck at "Curling" (a sort of bowling on ice) and even walk on the lake, all the while surrounded by mountain ranges that seem to go on forever. It is a typical small European village with one major road providing access to the shops of the area and stretching up to the base of the mountains. Nearby Kaprun, which is accessible by local bus, can offer some more challenging runs for those who can not get enough. In the region, the Kitzsteinhorn Glacier, Schmittenhole, Maiskogel, and Ronachkopf offer perfect skiing conditions for the entire family. A single lift pass allows you access to the 55 funiculars, aerial trams, gondolas, chairlifts, and T-bars. Cross country skiers can make the most of the 125 mile network of marked and set tracks. Other activities include ice skating, horse-drawn sleigh rides, horseback riding, tennis, paragliding, indoor swimming, etc. Come and join the fun in Zell Am See.
