    Tips

    July 29, 2025

    From here, you'll enjoy magnificent views of Lake Wolfgangsee. The lake in the Salzkammergut region is approximately 13 square kilometers in size and was formed during the last Ice Age. Glacial movements created an elongated basin, which is now filled with clear, cold water. Thanks to the excellent water quality, fish species such as whitefish, char, and pike, as well as numerous aquatic plants, live here in a stable ecosystem.

    You get here via a footpath. Very beautiful place with a view of the lake. You'll mostly meet small tourists here.
