The Schafberg, with its vertical north slopes, is an extremely prominent peak. The mountain is right on the border between Salzburg and Upper Austria. You can easily reach the summit with the Schafbergbahn from St. Wolfgang or via various hiking trails.

The Schafberg can be seen from afar and is also very easy to recognize due to its distinctive shape. You can hike to the summit of the Schafberg or reach it with the help of the cog railway, which from the beginning of May from St. Wolfgang also allows people without fitness to enjoy this unique summit experience in the Salzkammergut.
