With a great mix of restaurants, cafés, pubs and discos, the après ski can be as energetic as you wish. Families are well provided for too with great daycare and fun children's clubs.
Picture a beautiful frozen lake below as you cruise the blues and attack the reds – this is Zell am See in winter time. Next, picture a 3,000 metre glacier, a playground for piste hounds and freeriders alike – this is the Kitzteinhorn glacier at Kaprun. Together, they create a holiday combination that Topflight skiers and boarders love.
An old market town that grew in stature with the construction of a railway, Zell Am See is part of the Europa Sport Ski area and offers 138km of varied terrain on the Schmittenhohe, including gentle terrain for beginners, steeper slopes for intermediates and a fun park.
The resort is situated in an area of natural beauty with views of Austria’s highest peak, the majestic Grossglockner.
In ski terms, the beauty of this area is the short bus ride to the Kitzsteinhorn, which opens up on-piste and off-piste options for passionate skiers and boarders to have fun with. For culture vultures, Kaprun is also home to a medieval castle.
The centre of Zell Am See is lovely to wander around. Enjoy the weekly market, relax with a Glühwein after skiing and succumb to the Après -ski experience that is the Crazy Daisy!
Zell am See offers lively nightlife, from traditional zither music to discos and live bands. A Little Bit of Irish is the only non-smoking bar. Other popular bars include Pavillon, Lederhosen, Cabrio, Schnaps-Hans and Crazy Daisy’s which serves beer from the barrel and offers great food at reasonable prices. KupferKessel is another popular restaurant.
