Away Days
From Kaprun you can explore on the Pinzgau steam railway or take a bus (or an easy cycle ride!) to nearby Zell am See for a boat ride on the lake. There is also a fascinating local history museum. In addition we offer a number of organised 'away days' - guided excursions to places of interest. The drive to Grossglockner is one of the most impressive in the Alps. In the National Park, Krimml Falls is an amazing spectacle of waterfalls with a hiking trail along side leading to a pretty valley above. Liechtenstein Gorge is an equally wonderful spectacle. Why not spend a day in the region's capital, Salzbug, a classical city once known as 'the Rome of the North and once home to Mozart, and more recently to the 'Sound of Music' cast when they made the film. Closer to Kaprun, impressive Werfen Castle (seen in the film 'Where Eagles Dare') is a short drive away, and the town of Berchtesgaden in Germany makes an interesting day out, whether you choose to explore the salt mines or visit the 'Eagle's Nest', once Hitler's tea house, perched on a mountain top with wonderful views.

As man and wife you will then return to the hotel to celebrate over a gala dinner. Of course we will take care of all the wedding arrangements, leaving you to thoroughly enjoy the most wonderful day of your life. The only thing left for you to do is say "I do"!
