The next couple of days exist of skiing, snowboarding, drinking a few Aperol spritz, and of course the world famous cabaret! A detailed program will be available a couple weeks before the trip.
You will be staying in two very nice hotels at the best spot of Zell am See. Both hotels include a large wellness area featuring a sauna, steam room, and swimming pool. Every morning there’s a rich breakfast buffet and two of the nights you will have dinner at the hotel. The other night you will dine outside the hotel at an unique location. More info soon!
