Sitting directly on the shores of a deep alpine lake in the Austrian state of Salzburg, Zell am See pairs year-round mountain sports — anchored by the Zell am See-Kaprun ski area — with a café and restaurant scene unusually dense for a pocket-sized town. A resort destination since the 19th century, it draws visitors in both winter and summer, and serves as a regional transport hub with its own airport.
