Austria; Zell Am See

Villages are back in style!


The beautiful rural touristic towns of Zell am See and Kaprun in Austria, are simply breathtaking!

The following two are some of the main attractions of one of the two sister towns:


ZELL AM SEE:-

1. The Zell am See Lake (Lake Zell):

The lake is 4 kilometers long and 1.5 kilometers  wide. It is up to 69 meters deep and at an elevation of 750 meters above sea level. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Zell)  In winter the lake completely freezes and is used for winter sports. In summer the lake is used for pleasure boating. It is surrounded by many little ice cream shops and famous hotels (like the Grand Hotel) Along the lake many people go for a stroll to enjoy the breathtaking scenes and weather.







2. Kitzsteinhorn

The Kitzsteinhorn is a mountain in the High Tauern range of the Central Eastern Alps in Austria. After taking a series of cable cars, you finally reach the top at a height of 3029 meters. There is snow every day and in summer there are snow games that both children and adults can enjoy. Make sure to pack everything from gloves to scarves because it does get quite cold! There are 5 cable cars in total and free wifi is provided in every cable car station. There is a 360 degrees cinema in the glacier and a panorama restaurant where you can warm up and relax.
