Tortuga Beach Bar at Pichlingersee

Highlight • Cafe

Sand, a view of the water and well-mixed cocktails - all right on our/my front door. More precisely at the Pichlingersee at the "Tortuga-Bar".

From Linz main station in about 1/4 hour by train to Pichlingersee, to circle it and eat a good fish on a stick: This is a wonderful way to end the day.

With the many rest stops by the lake, the circumnavigation is an experience in itself. There is a lot going on here at the weekend when the weather is nice. But during the week and when the weather is bad, you can also circle the lake in a sporty way.

Several pubs, bars, and snack bars, as well as a bouncy castle and slide, a huge playground, and plenty of seating, emergency call points, changing rooms, and lockers round …
