Lake Altaussee

Highlight • Lake

Embedded in the picturesque mountain landscape is the crystal-clear Lake Altauseer, on the banks of which the town of the same name is located. Because the water has a slightly dark blue color, the lake is also called the "dark blue inkwell" - it is not only for this reason that it is considered one of the most beautiful lakes in the Salzkammergut. In the lake you can refresh yourself and in the local gastronomy there is also a refreshment waiting for you.

Hofmannsthal Lime Tree

Highlight • Natural Monument

From the lime tree on the hill in Obertressen one has a wonderful view. It is named after the writer and co-founder of the Salzburg Festival Hugo von Hofmannsthal (1874-1929). He brought it to over 30 summer stays in Ausseerland.
