The city of "Zell am See"

Home of sports, culture and a lot of relaxation - this is Zell am See.

Life is good in Zell am See - and healthy, too! The picturesque community in the majestic Alpine valley has been a health spa resort since 1961. But not only that! Lake Zell also provides the town with a natural reservoir of 175 million cubic metres of the purest of drinking water. Naturally, the 4.5 square kilometres of its water surface are also wonderfully suited for ice and water sports.

Right at the gates of the town, you will findSchmittenhöhe rising up to 2,000 metres high. Some 77 kilometres of ski pistes are only a stone's throw away from downtown Zell. But it is also well-worth your time, to spend a little of it in town. The shopping streets of Zell am See make for a nice stroll and there is a very popular Christmas fair taking place in the town square every year in December. 

Zell am See is integrated into an ample network of cross-country ski runs and hiking trails which go all the way to neighbouring communities. But why should you go to distant shores if everything you need is right here at your fingertips? The town with its Parish Church, St. Hippolyt, and the town's museum at the Kastnerturm tower also constitute a cultural destination, while sports fans come here to watch ice hockey games at the national league club in town.
