The Austrian Alps / Salzburgerland / Salzburgerland region

Zell am see is a very attractive, small town, siting right on the edge of a an alpine lake. It is in a wide sunny valley and is easily accessible by road and train. In winter the area is a skiers paridise but its not all about skiing, there is plenty to do for the non skier, unlike many modern ski stations. Imagine taking a horse drawn sleigh ride or learning to drive a dog sled, across the frozen lake. In summer the climate changes drastically and it can get very hot. Last year saw temperatures in May of 35 degrees! In summer the lake is the centre of activities, with lots of water sports posibilities, boat trips, etc. There are many prepared beach areas around the lake with changing facilities, children's play parks etc. it really is a good family resort.. Salzburg is a great place to visit for a day trip. Why not do the sound of Music or Mozart tours! The famous Grossglockner glacier and the Krimml falls are also closeby.
