 On the trail of "Gustav & Gustav" - your unique experience on Lake Attersee

Immerse yourself in the world of two world stars of art and music: Gustav Klimt and Gustav Mahler. Be inspired by the breathtaking lake landscape of Lake Attersee, framed by the Höllengebirge mountains - just like the two masters themselves.

**Unique days full of enjoyment and culture await you:**
