Chalets in a traditional Zillertal village, with the Zillertal Arena on the doorstep

A traditional village in the Zillertal
Zell am Ziller is one of the oldest villages in the Zillertal, a former gold-mining town with a fine baroque church and a strong sense of tradition: every May it holds the Gauderfest, one of the oldest spring festivals in Austria. In winter it is the gateway to the Zillertal Arena, a large ski area linking Zell with Gerlos and Königsleiten.
Our Zell am Ziller collection includes 14 chalets and apartments, many with saunas and views across the valley.
Here is a guide to the village and its skiing.
