Our district capital with about 10,000 inhabitants is located - as the name suggests - directly at Lake Zell. On the opposite side of the lake from the centre is the district of Thumersbach, where the Seehaus Zeppelin is located. Due to the manageable size of the Lake Zell, it is perfectly suited for a bicycle tour or a walk around the lake (about 11 kilometres). But the town centre of Zell am See also has a lot to offer:

• Weekly farmers' market with regional specialities (end of March to beginning of November)
• Many shopping opportunities (from sports equipment and clothing to gifts)
• Panorama round trip with the MS Schmittenhöhe (beginning of May to beginning of November)
• Free guided tours of the town (weekly)
• Zeller Seezauber (mid-May to mid-October)
• Restaurants for all tastes
