Once the small white ball has left the tee, one's eyes start straying across the breathtaking Alpine panorama of Kitzsteinhorn and Schmittenhöhe. At such a stunning sight, it is hard to follow the trajectory of the plastic ball. All golfers, beginners and pros alike, share this experience when they play the championship courses of
Zell am See-Kaprun for the first time.
Flawless fairways and an unequalled ambience make the golf club of the region the first choice among players from all over the world. Golfing legend Bernhard Langer has already played the two 18-hole courses, too, and is holding the record with 66 shots. The championship courses, named after the local mountains of Kitzsteinhorn and Schmittenhöhe, meet highest standards. Hence it is no coincidence that the
Golfclub Zell am See-Kaprun has been a member of the 'Leading Golf Courses Austria' since 1999.
The leading golf courses have to earn their right of membership in regular tests in more than 100 categories. One very important characteristic is the 'pleasure factor'. Location, view, ambience and the quality of the restaurant play a major role when it comes to the evaluation.
Every year the well-kept greens and fairways are the venue for great golf events. The club championships, the Volksbank Salzburg Trophy, the 'Ski & Golf Championship' - the Zell am See-Kaprun event calender is brimming with exciting opportunities.
To make sure that the sporting fun is depleting your physical reserves rather than your wallet, Zell am See and Kaprun are partners of the
Golf Alpine Card. From as little as 170 Euro, beginners in this fascinating sport can practice like the pros. And after a game on the largest golf course in the Austrian Alps, almost 90 partner hotels and apartments guarantee relaxation to the full. Luxurious five-star hotels, cosy inns and all kinds of self-catering accommodation are waiting for you.
