Summer in Zell am See offers something for everyone. This cozy place is located on Lake Zell (13 km perimeter); a magnificent lake with many water sports facilities. You can swim and surf here, and there are also pedal boats, electric boats and sailboats. The water is light blue and has drinking water quality. You can also take a tour of the lake, where you can get off at different points. For example, you can go to Thumersbach, a village with a beautiful park with playground and bathing paradise. It overlooks the lake and the white peaks of Kaprun from the swimming pool.
You can also take a mountain lift to one of the Alpine pastures to hike or enjoy lunch or a treat on one of the alpine huts. If you prefer a little quieter, then the boulevard, the commercial streets or one of the many street cafés offer an alternative.
