hiking
Zell am See-Kaprun is situated between the Pinzgau Grasberge and the rugged walls of the Hohe Tauern: This versatility makes the region ideal for your hiking holiday in Austria. Here you will find easy family hikes as well as difficult summit tours.
The Schmittenhöhebahn is only 1.4 km away from the Der Sonnberg Alpine Lodges. It is only 3.4 km to the Pinzgau narrow-gauge railway. Both railways take you to wonderful hiking areas with numerous, well-signposted tours.
A visit to the Gipfelwelt 3000 is a special experience.
With comfortable cable cars (among others from Kaprun), the Gipfelwelt 3000 is easily accessible for everyone. The Gipfelwelt 3000 is a popular destination for excursions all year round. From the viewing platforms "Top of Salzburg" and "National Park Gallery" you have an impressive view of the glaciated peaks of the National Park. Here, Austria's mightiest mountains are within reach. You can experience the glacier up close on a summer slide in the Ice Arena below the summit. National Park Rangers guide you through the Gipfelwelt 3000 and tell you exciting stories about the Hohe Tauern and the Kitzsteinhorn.
