Lakeside Beauty

by nhcram - last update: Feb 5, 2006

The sun shone for us.

Beautiful views
Zell am See is an unusual resort because it is not a rustic village like most of its small Austrian competitors, but a lakeside town with a charming old centre. I am sure it is geared up more for winter than summer visitors but saying that we found the place alive and well.
The tour around the lake is a must.
Zell makes good base for holidaymakers who enjoy travelling around. Having a car makes it easy to visit numerous other resorts like nearby kaprun.
Cycling is also a popular mode of travel. Hiking is a good way of seeing the area and there are hundreds of marked tracks to enable you to do this.
Parking is not too easy in the town.

Pros:"Beautiful lakeside town."
Cons:"I can only think of limited parking."
In A Nutshell:"Will come back and see some more."

 I still want to go to Zell am See, because I know people who own a hotel there, but still haven't got the chance yet.
