Mountain and lake holidays in Austria

Holidays in Austria – experience mountains and lakes

Austria, also known as the ‘Land of Mountains’, is a popular holiday destination for guests from all over the world all year round. The alpine lifestyle, the lush green of the meadows and forests and the blue of the lakes in summer, the white landscape in winter, the sublime mountain world and the glistening lakes make a holiday in the mountains of Austria and especially in the Zell am See-Kaprun region truly something special.

From mountain biking tours in Salzburg in spring, a dip in Lake Zell in summer and summit tours in autumn to carving turns on the pistes in winter: A holiday in Kaprun is unrivalled in terms of variety and has something to offer at any time of year.

That’s why we at the alpine lifestyle hotel DAS ALPENHAUS KAPRUN enjoy life close to the mountains all year round and our guests can feel this attitude to life in every corner of the hotel and in our fantastic surroundings.
