5 reasons for an Easter holiday at the Grüner Baum
When nature in the valley slowly awakens from its winter slumber and the best piste conditions still prevail high up on the glacier, then it's spring in Zell am See-Kaprun. A perfect time to get away from it all and spend your Easter holidays with us at the Hotel Grüner Baum. The combination of the alpine landscape, the crystal-clear mountain air and the numerous outdoor activities make our region an ideal destination for an unforgettable Easter holiday with the whole family.
Here we have summarised 5 good reasons why an Easter holiday with the whole family is particularly appealing:
1. arrival by ski & bike
Why not leave your car at home and travel to Zell am See by train? The railway station is just a stone's throw away from the Hotel Grüner Baum. Thanks to the great connection to the international ÖBB railway network and the perfect location of our hotel, your car-free journey by train will be stress-free child's play. Whether on skis or by bike (or both) - Zell am See-Kaprun is not only known for its excellent ski areas, but also for its well-developed cycle paths. So you can easily combine skiing fun and cycling adventures .
2. Sun skiing & glacier experiences
The Kitzsteinhorn, the region's glacier, offers the perfect conditions for sun skiing high above the clouds. Enjoy the warm rays of sunshine as you glide down the glistening pistes, marvelling at the breathtaking panorama of the Alps in the background. The transition from snow-covered slopes to green valleys makes skiing a unique experience for the whole family. And non-skiers get their money's worth too! The summit lift not only takes you to the perfectly groomed pistes, but also to the high-altitude "Top of Salzburg" viewing platform, from where you can enjoy an impressive 360 panoramic view of the surrounding peaks and valleys.
3. Time out in the nature
If you want to escape the hustle and bustle of the pistes, Zell am See-Kaprun offers numerous opportunities for a relaxing or action-packed break in the great outdoors. Whether it's an enjoyable (snowshoe) hike to a mountain pasture, a bike tour along the Tauern cycle path, a boat trip on Lake Zell or the first trail run of the season on the Thumersbach high-altitude promenade trail. What else speaks for an "enjoyable time out" are the local specialities of Austrian cuisine, which provide a real treat for the palate with fresh spring ingredients: just like here at the Grüner Baum restaurant
4. Stroll around Lake Zell
Lake Zell, nestled between imposing mountain backdrops, invites you to take long walks. The gentle lapping of the water, the reflecting sunlight and the fresh mountain air make the lake the perfect place for relaxing moments. Take advantage of the numerous lakeside promenades to experience the beauty of nature and leave everyday life far behind. The beautiful old town of Zell am See also invites you to stroll, shop and linger with its cafés and numerous shops.
5. Easter bonus for families
Families will find a very special gift in their Easter nest during their Easter holiday: With the Ski ALPIN CARD Easter bonus, children can ski for free when accompanied by a parent. All skiers born in 2008 or later will receive a free ski pass from 23/03/2024 to 07/04/2024 if one parent buys a ski pass at the same time. You can find more information about the Easter bonus for families here .
Zell am See-Kaprun and our Grüner Baum combine the best of two worlds in spring: the last days of sunny skiing and the awakening nature around the shores of our Zeller See. An Easter holiday with us in the region promises not only sporting highlights, but also a harmonious combination of action and relaxation in the midst of the majestic mountain landscape.
