Winter hiking & snowshoeing

Hiking in the snow in Zell am See-Kaprun

In winter, indulge in nature or go snowshoeing or winter hiking between glaciers, mountains and lakes. Whether on a guided tour or alone, here you can experience the winter landscape at its most beautiful. In winter, snowshoes are best tied to your feet when the snow falls from the sky and turns the Pinzgau into a snow-covered landscape. In summer, a large number of well-known hiking trails cross, while in winter the paths often have to be found first. Of course, the whole thing looks different on many well-maintained walking or winter hiking trails. The winter service ensures clear conditions there. A robust winter shoe with thick padding and non-slip soles remains an advantage.

Many wonderful winter hiking trails await you around Lake Zell. Various footpaths lead through the places around the lake and lead you into the cold nature.

Along the sun promenade between Hochzelleralm and Sonnkogelbahn or around the Plettsaukopf reservoir. There you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the valley and Lake Zell.
