Lake Zell

Zeller See

Lake Zell (Zeller See) is the lake beside the town of Zell am See in the state of Salzburg, lying wholly within the municipality of Zell am See.

Why go

Lake Zell is the lake on whose shore the town of Zell am See stands; the regional tourism board says the town sits on a peninsula formed by the Schmittenbach stream that juts into the lake. The Schmittenhöhe lift company lists boat tours on Lake Zell among its own offers. Wikidata gives an area of 4.55 km², and the whole lake outline in OpenStreetMap lies inside the municipality of Zell am See. This record is the lake as an area; its pin is a point on the water, not a pier or a lido, and it is not the protected areas that carry the lake's name.
