Holidays in the Attersee-Attergau region - outdoor moments between mountain & lake in the Upper Austrian Salzkammergut
Between glistening lake and rolling hills, between "Oh, how beautiful!" and "I never want to leave!"
Whether you want to let off steam by hiking, cycling or swimming - or simply relax in a deckchair with a view of the countryside: You'll find the full programme here. While the lake takes care of your inner peace, the gentle hills of the Attergau and the rugged cliffs of the Höllengebirge provide the necessary balance - while hiking, climbing, walking or e-biking with a view.
The Attersee-Attergau region in the heart of the Salzkammergut is no ordinary holiday destination - it is an invitation to take a deep breath, marvel and enjoy. In other words: this is where nature meets joie de vivre and relaxation meets adventure.

NATURE that enchants
Lake Attersee - crystal clear, turquoise blue and bigger than any excuse not to go swimming. Austria's largest inland lake attracts visitors with excellent water quality and a fabulous panorama. Whether you swim, sail or glide silently across the water on a SUP - nature sets the pace here. All around: green meadows, gentle mountains and countless hiking and cycling routes that will make your heart beat faster.
CULTURE with character
Art, history and lots of atmosphere: the Gustav Klimt Centre in Schörfling brings you closer to the great masterpieces, while places like Schloss Kammer charmingly remind you of the region's history. Whether it's an art festival, customs or a concert evening - culture is not a programme item here, but a way of life.
ENJOYMENT as it should be
Regional cuisine? It's celebrated here! From freshly caught Attersee fish from the award-winning award-winning restaurant to hearty snacks and fine wines from the schnapps distillery - in the cosy inns and charming restaurants you can eat your way through the true diversity of the Salzkammergut. Local, honest, simply good.
