Lake Zell is one of the most beautiful Alpine lakes in Austria and, according to locals, the heart of the popular Zell am See-Kaprun region. It lies right below the mountains, just a short walk from the center of Zell am See, and offers exactly the kind of atmosphere that keeps us and you coming back to Austrian lakes in the summer. Look forward to crystal-clear water, well-kept promenades, views of Alpine peaks, and plenty of things to do besides swimming.<\/p>\n

Don’t think that Lake Zell is just an ideal spot for a relaxing holiday by the water, though. In fact, its greatest advantage is the variety of activities you can enjoy here. You can go for a swim in the lake in the morning, take the cable car up to Schmittenh\u00f6he in the afternoon, stroll along the promenade in the evening, and head to the Kitzsteinhorn glacier or the Grossglockner High Alpine Road the next day. Thanks to this, families with children, active hikers, and couples looking for a nice place for a summer stay in the Alps won’t get bored here.<\/span><\/p>\n
