Zell am See · Things to do

Viewing platforms at 3,029m, a gallery tunnel bored through the peak, and a summer Ice Arena on the glacier itself.

Drinking-water quality, up to about 23C in August, with free public lidos as well as paying beaches around the shore.

Boardwalks and stairs bolted into a meltwater gorge near Kaprun, with occasional night openings in high summer.

Guided tours inside the Mooser dam wall run into October, reached by shuttle bus and a steep inclined lift.

A 10th-century tower holding the local museum, wedged among the lanes behind the church. Twenty quiet minutes.
