How to get around Zell am See

How our self-guided Zell am See walking holidays work:

Our self-guided trips let you set your own pace, from the length of your stay, to how far you walk each day. But if you’re used to group or guided holidays, you might be wondering how you’ll get around? Well, it’s easy…

Getting to and around the resort:

Your airport transfer is included with your trip. Once there, you'll find Zell am See is highly walkable, with a paved walkway encircling the entire lakeside promenade. The train station and local buses link up neighbouring Kaprun, Saalbach, Kitzbühel, and Salzburg for great day trips.

Getting to your walks and hikes:

Local buses and trains link you up with 14 summer gondolas that will have you whisked up to starting trailheads with ease (free with your summer card). There's no huffing and puffing up the side of mountains (unless you want there to be!) - just fantastic strolls with stellar views.
