Bad Goisern on Lake Hallstatt

Bad Goisern am Hallstättersee, Oberösterreich, Österreich

In winter, the long-drawn Goiserer Valley wraps itself in a white blanket of snow and turns into a winter sports resort away from the hustle and bustle of the Alps. The birthplace of Hubert von Goisern gently hugs Lake Hallstatt in the north and the imperial city of Bad Ischl in the south.

Surrounded by mountain panoramas, located directly on the beautiful Lake Hallstatt, Bad Goisern enchants with its charming town centre, beautiful landscape and many idyllic places. With its good infrastructure, "Goisern" is a popular holiday destination for relaxation, as a climatic health resort and as a starting point for exploring the surrounding nature of the UNESCO World Heritage Region. The Hand.Werk.Haus Salzkammergut as well as traditional and musical events are also worth a visit.

More about Bad Goisern and why it's worth coming here.

Winter fun in the Inner Salzkammergut

Fans of the gentle winter will get their money's worth with tobogganing, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing or ski tours. The Höhenloipen am Predigstuhl offer panoramic cross-country ski trails, while the Nordic Centre not only has cross-country ski trails but also a ski jump. A variety of snowshoe hikes and ski tours allow you to soak up nature and gently enjoy the panorama of the Inner Salzkammergut.
