Salzkammergut (Lakes Region) Austria

The Salzkammergut is a resort area located in Austria. It stretches from the City of Salzburg eastwards along the Austrian Alpine Foreland and the Northern Limestone Alps to the peaks of the Dachstein Mountains, spanning the federal states of Upper Austria, Salzburg, and Styria. The main river of the region is the Traun, a right tributary of the Danube. The Salzkammergut area (Lake District), with a total of 76 lakes, is one of the most impressive regions in the heart of Austria and one of the most popular regions in all of Austria, especially during the summer, visitors stream into the Salzkammergut to enjoy picturesque towns, lakes and mountains. Beside numerous beautiful villages and towns, Hallstatt is a must see. This historic village joined the list of UNESCO "World Cultural and Natural Heritage" sites in December 1997. Stroll through the beautiful village, soak up the atmosphere while resting at the lake and visit the oldest salt mine in the world. Experience the magical part of Austria while hiking or cycling along one of the numerous trails. Absorb impressive colours and smell the beautiful scents of all the flowers. There are also some museums in the region to visit, as the Local Historic Museum, the Open Air Museum Kugelmühle or the Dolls Museum.
