Zell am See-Kaprun invites the friends of motorbiking to the 'BMW Mountain Days'
Freedom on two wheels: The 'BMW Mountain Days' in Zell am See-Kaprun
From 22nd to 25th May Zell am See and Kaprun invite to this first time occasion. 'The region is just perfect for such an event', says Markus Kaufmann, one of the organizers and a motorbike dealer at the Kaprun BMW car showroom of that same name. It is its central location right in the middle of Europe that makes the region so interesting: bikers from Germany, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Italy, Croatia, Slovenia, and Switzerland can all get there quite quickly and easily. And once the international guests have gathered there, they can start on trips to Carinthia, East Tyrol, and many further destinations in the vicinity. There will always be lots of suitable routes to choose from!
It is the 'BMW Mountain Days' that make all this possible. From Thursday, 22nd May, there will be daily trips of about four hours each starting at half past eight in the morning and led by experienced tour guides who take care of planning the routes. More than half a dozen different routes are on the programme. The participants will be able to fully concentrate on riding their bikes and enjoying the idyllic countryside. When the pilots return to their starting point on the L 543 near the premises of BMW Kaufmann in the afternoon, there will still be enough time to revel in all the other attractions of the 'BMW Mountain Days' - such as the spectacular Enduropark, the technology and tuning fair 'The World of BMW Motorbikes' on about 20,000 square metres of exhibition space, and the Streetbike Freestyle Show with Aleš Polák. And of course, there will be lots of music, too: the tunes of some local bands will be heard in Kaprun as well as the flair of Dixie and jazz music from New Orleans. For all those who would like to get know the traditions of the region a little better, the 'Pinzgau Party Mile' is the place to go. All the local clubs and associations are presenting themselves there with music, dance, and lots of culinary delights.
The secret highlight of the 'BMW Mountain Days' is sure to cause a tingling sensation in the tummies of all riders: on Friday, 23rd May, at half past nine on the morning, they all start on a trip up to Austria's highest mountain. The route leads along the biking eldorado of Grossglockner pass up to Bikers' Point on Edelweißspitze, more than 2,500 metres above sea level.
Before the bikers are once again scattered to the four winds on Sunday, 25th May, the vicar of Kaprun, Toni Fersterer, will provide them with spiritual support for their way: he is going to hold an open-air service to give them his blessings. And their bikes won't be forgotten there either. The 'BMW Mountain Days' - a really heavenly delight!

The holiday region of Zell am See-Kaprun with its 14,000 beds and two million overnight stays per year is one of the most important holiday destinations in Austria. The beautiful flora and fauna in the Alpine panorama and Lake Zell guarantee relaxation and well-being. Golfing, hiking, and bathing are at the focus for the summer time programme, but visitors can choose from more than 40 other activities as well. During the cold season, fun on skis and boards make sure that there is no dull moment. Skiers can comfortably reach the 136 kilometres of slopes covered with powder snow by one of the 56 lifts. Snowboarders enjoy the perfect conditions of the Snowpark on the 2,600-metre-high glacier plateau. Even in the summer you can swish down the slopes here. And family-friendliness is a top priority in Zell am See and Kaprun. For this reason, the region has already received various awards.

They have only been organized for…
