Family oriented resort, but very crowded between February 14-21. Rude skiers. Poor GPS directions from Munich. Icy sidewalks. I've seen much better conditions in many other places.

Away from the Cities of Austria
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 01/11/06
Zell am See is only an hour or so from Salzburg and offers a great get away from the city. Nestled in the mountains, the view of the lake is breath taking. Not only can you enjoy the views, but the food and the shopping are worth the trip. The town is geared toward skiers, but that should not stop you from going in the summer or fall when the ...

it's heaven on earth
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/10/05
there's nothing i disliked about zell am see, it's a very comforting plce, nature all around, it's toooooooo quite. the air smells like heaven, i never felt pollution, not any kind of pollution. the people are very friendly. it's too small a town that u almost see the same people every day which arises a sense of friendliness. one never feeels homesick in zell am see, i wish i would live there one day
I liked the weather, the lake, coffee shops... etc I went to the Krimml waterfall and it was nice. I also went to GrossGlockner peak by public bus, you can go there by tour bus in 8 persons package, and I was imazed by the things you see in the way.
I disliked the train in the middle of the night. I stayed in Grand hotel **** stars and it was very close to the train track.

I love Zell-am-see
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/28/04
I found Zell-am-see (and neighboring Kaprun) to be the perfect location due to its variety of outdoor activities, lodging choices, and proximity to Salzburg and other central Austrian excursions. I was there during the month of September (recommended) which meant fewer people and mild, dry days.
For starters you can walk, ride your bike, or ...
