Winter hiking in Zell am See.
Sounds like silence.
Winter & snowshoe hiking in Zell am See-Kaprun
Paths that sound like foresight.
Whether on cleared paths or with snowshoes through untouched slopes - the region on the sunny side of the Alps offers winter experiences in their most peaceful form.
Winter hiking in Kaprun brings pure enjoyment of nature - e.g. along the Kapruner Moos, through the Filzmooswald forest or along the golf course circular trail. The ICE CAMP TRAIL on the Kitzsteinhorn is also a real highlight: from January to April, the hike ends at an igloo world made of snow and ice - the enchanting ICE CAMP.
Winter hiking with a panorama
There are numerous walking and winter hiking trails around Lake Zell, leading through snow-covered villages, forests and across sunny slopes. If you want to go higher, enjoy the panoramic views over the valley on the Schmittenhöhe - e.g. on the sunny promenade between Hochzelleralm and Sonnkogelbahn or on the circular hiking trail at the Plettsaukopf reservoir.
Other fantastic destinations:
- Enzianhütte & Ronachkopf
- Mitterberg with panoramic views
- Lake promenade Zell am See
- Forest trails & moss paths around Kaprun
- Filzmoosweg & Salzach riverbank
Lace up your snowshoes & off you go
If you prefer something a little more sporty, discover the winter landscape on snowshoes. As soon as the fresh snow softens the landscape, the adventure off the beaten track begins. Guided tours or your own routes - with a little sure-footedness and the right equipment, nothing stands in the way of snow happiness.
Tip: On cleared paths, a robust winter boot with a good sole is usually sufficient - on untracked routes, snowshoes provide the necessary grip.
