Mondsee

You can drive around the Mondsee very well. Very well developed route.

The Mondsee, located in the Upper Austrian Salzkammergut southwest of the Attersee, belongs with its entire area to the municipality of the same name. The southern bank forms the border between Upper Austria and the State of Salzburg and between the Limestone Alps in the south and the sandstone zone. The Drachenwand on the southwest bank is also striking. In 1864 remains of pile dwellings of the Neolithic Moon Sea culture were discovered.

Since all surrounding communities (except Mondsee) with their community borders on the shore of the lake border on the community Mondsee, they themselves have no part in the lake. With a length of 11 km and a maximum width of 1.5 km, the Mondsee covers an area of around 14 km². The Kreuzstein stands a few meters from the bank near the eastern south bank, which here forms the border with the State of Salzburg.
