"We love nature!"
You can easily spend two weeks in Kaprun/Zell am See, the possibilities are vast. Put on your skis and go! The Kitzsteinhorn glacier is a real highlight, the mountain panorama magnificent. But a walk along the river in the village is also nice. In summer we simply march up the mountain. The main thing is to be outdoors – we love to be in touch with nature.
