Summer at Lake Wolfgang
In St. Wolfgang, the lake is always present — the lake.
Not only is it one of the largest in the Salzkammergut, but many say it’s also one of the most beautiful.
Its brilliant colors and pleasantly warm summer temperatures — often reaching up to 25°C on sunny days — make it truly special.
So, “pack your swimsuit,” because there’s so much to do here…
The surrounding mountains invite you to hike, climb, or explore by bike. A holiday in St. Wolfgang often means combining outdoor adventure with blissful moments of leisure and unforgettable experiences.
A vast network of hiking trails, various climbing routes, trips on the legendary Schafberg Railway or Zwölferhorn Cable Car — all are must-dos.
Another highlight: the summer toboggan run, perfect for a day full of fun and variety.
But the lake isn’t just for swimming!
You can rent all sorts of boats and boards — some you might even try for the first time.
Whether you take a relaxing cruise on one of the lake’s passenger ships, paddle out by SUP or pedalo, or choose high-energy action like water-skiing, wakeboarding, tubing, or banana-boat rides — gather your loved ones and create unforgettable summer memories.
Prefer to stay on land and keep moving?
Hop on your mountain bike, road bike, or e-bike — yes, that absolutely counts as a sport — and explore the region on two wheels.
Well-marked cycle routes lead up and down and up again… strong calves are helpful!
And if the sky turns dark and heavy raindrops start to fall, there’s no need for disappointment. Our apartments are cozy and well-equipped — maybe you’ll even bake a cake for the family.
If you’d still like to head out, St. Wolfgang offers many great indoor activities to make the most of a rainy day.
Winter at Lake Wolfgang
The Postalm is a small but family-friendly ski area close to Lake Wolfgang.
Here you can carve down the slopes with confidence, or enjoy cross-country skiing, ski touring, tobogganing, and winter hiking — wonderful ways to stay active and shape up while surrounded by snowy peaks.
Paragliding is also a popular experience in winter. Look up toward the sun and you might spot colorful gliders soaring through the sky.
If that inspires you, why not book a flight yourself?
