    Hiking

    There is a mountain in Austria called Baalstein. It is a vantage point with a magnificent view over the Traunsee. It's also a popular hiking destination and a worthwhile tour in the Salzkammergut mountains in Upper Austria.

    The Baalstein near Traunkirchen is also a place of worship. Often it can be enjoyed in total solitude. According to tradition, the hanging rock served as a secret memorial for the dead in pre-Christian times. This is also evidenced by various historical stone carvings.
