Alternative Wintersports

Snow quad/buggy bikes in wintry Glemmtal! Off into the snowstorm, curve and drift with quads and buggies across show-covered and icy slopes in an area measuring 60,000m².

The extensive Zell lake is quaintly nestled between the Schmittenhöhe and the Kitzsteinhorn. Ice skating over the frozen solid sheet of ice on the Zell lake is an impressive experience. When the ice on the lake begins to melt, you can get on the ice, try your hand at curling or simply cheer on the teams at an exciting ice hockey match in the hall at the nearly leisure centre in Zell am See. Of course, there is also a skate service here including hire.

The Kaprun ski region in Zell am See is known for its vast winter hiking network. More than 50 kilometres of winter hiking paths will awake your desire for movement. Those who like to enjoy the quieter side of winter can trudge cross-country with snow boots, reaching undisturbed places with wonderful views. By yourself or under the expert guidance of one of the guides - it will be an unforgettable experience in any case!

Why not lean back and enjoy Pinzgau’s wonderful winter landscape during a horse-drawn sleigh ride in the opening of the valley towards Hinterglemm? Warmly tucked in under cosy blankets, your own personal winter fairy tale will come true, leaving romantics with unforgettable moments!

The different side valleys have great ski tours, all manner of tour destinations and cresting summits. The region’s classics await at the head of the Hinterglemm valley beyond the Lindlingalm and the famous “Golden Gate Bridge”. Once you reach the Lengau valley head, an extra-special ski tour paradise will open around the Staffkogel, Schusterkogel and many other mountains.
