Experience Pure Relaxation at TAUERN SPA Zell am See - Kaprun
TAUERN SPA Zell am See – Kaprun is located in Kaprun, Salzburger Land, Austria, at the foot of the Kitzsteinhorn glacier in the Hohe Tauern National Park. The architecture combines modern alpine design with sweeping glass facades that frame views of the surrounding peaks. This 4-star superior resort operates 365 days a year and offers a 20,000 m² spa experience. The thermal water emerges at a pleasant temperature that fills 12 different pools, creating a contrast between the eternal ice of the glacier and the warm water below.
Signature facilities include 12 pools, 10 saunas and steam baths, a 127-meter tube slide, and a separate Kidstein Children’s SPA with its own indoor and outdoor areas. The sauna world features a Finnish sauna, bio sauna, herbal bath, saltwater laconicum, and a new saltwater steam bath with an infrared room and snow room. A glass-enclosed skyline pool gives hotel guests panoramic views of the alpine panorama. The wellness philosophy centers on balance between activity and relaxation — guests come for the combination of sporty swimming in the 25-meter sports pool, gentle floating in the saltwater pool, and targeted recovery in the spacious relaxation areas.
This spa works best for couples and families who want a full-service resort experience with dedicated zones for adults and children. Plan for a full day or an overnight stay to take advantage of the 20,000 m² water and sauna world, the gourmet dining options, and the extensive treatment menu at Alpin Vital SPA & Kosmetik. What sets TAUERN SPA apart is the direct integration with the mountain environment — the spa sits right at the base of the glacier, and guests can combine a spa day with hiking or skiing in the same trip.
