Ski Zell am See, Austria

Zell am See ski resort is located next to Lake Zell in Austria and part of the Europa Sport ski area. Ski holidays in Zell am See mean the perfect combination of a traditional tyrolean style village and access to fantastic glacier skiing.

If boarding or skiing in Zell am See you will have access to the slopes surrounding Zell as well as neighbouring Kaprun and Schüttdorf. The combination and variety of blue, red and black pistes in the Europa Sport ski area means everyone will be taken care of. There are some nice easy, broad slopes to start off on in Zell with some more difficult runs to advance to. For intermediate skiers or boarders ski deals to Zell am See means plenty of red slopes to improve your abilities on and some great, steep black descents that will challenge the better intermediate skiers and boarders, as well as the more advanced. Zell also offers some great off-piste skiing while for boarders there is a fun-park at the Schmittenhöhe that contains plenty of jumps, ramps and bumps to test your skills on.

Similar to other ski resorts in Austria like Mayrhofen Valley and Saalbach, Zell am See offers some brilliant and lively nightlife. There is a mix of restaurants, cafés, pubs and discos for the more energetic out there or some quieter spots if you just want somewhere to unwind after a hectic day on the slopes. Zell is also very family orientated with some great daycare and children’s clubs in resort where fun is the name of the game.
For some alternatives to the après ski scene why not try bowling, tobogganing, swimming, sleigh rides, ice-skating, hang-gliding, paragliding, or hot air ballooning? Also worth looking into locally would be a day trip to the nearby thermal springs in the Gastein Valley.
