Naturally sustainable
Since the opening of the mountain railways, a lot has happened in the region in terms of tourism, but the most important thing has never been overlooked: Nature in all its beauty and fragility. To this day, great importance is attached to the highest quality of life in order to protect Lake Zell, with its excellent water quality, as well as the natural landscapes and forests, and to preserve an environment worth living in.
