From Kronbergplatz, the panoramic view extends across Lake Attersee; from the Attergau Observation Tower, the view reaches as far as the Dachstein. In Straß Im Attergau, these landscapes are complemented by a circular trail, salt experiences and seasonal skiing. When planning your trip, consider which interests and travel dates matter most to you. When searching for hotels in Straß Im Attergau, your reason for travelling can be a good place to start.
Viewpoints with Different Sights
Kronbergplatz offers a panoramic view of Lake Attersee and the Attergau landscape. Kronberg Chapel also affords views across the Attergau and Lake Attersee. From the Attergau Observation Tower, you can enjoy unobstructed views of Traunstein, the Höllengebirge, Lake Attersee and the Dachstein. The viewpoints therefore offer different sights: at Kronbergplatz and the chapel, the lake and the Attergau take centre stage; the tower also offers views of three other named mountain destinations. If views are your main reason for visiting, you can take these differences into account when choosing where to go.
Circular Trail and Archery Course
The 2 Kronberg Circular Trail starts at Kronberg Chapel on Kronberg in Straß Im Attergau. It combines views, relaxation and an experience of nature—a distinct option alongside individual viewpoints. Check trail conditions before setting out, as route information may change with conditions on the trail.
The Attergauer Bowhunters course covers 8 hectares and features 28 animal figures. For travellers who want to include archery in their plans, it offers a distinct activity. The course and the circular trail differ in character: the course focuses on archery and animal figures, while the trail offers views, relaxation and an experience of nature. You can choose according to the activities that interest you.
Salt Experience, Talk and Tasting
KristallSalzWelt includes salt experience and salt therapy rooms, as well as a salt shop. The Salt Oasis and Salt Gallery offer an approximately 45-minute informational talk with a tasting. The approximate duration of the talk can help you plan your time; the tasting is also part of the experience. In the Crystal Salt Oasis and the Crystal Salt Grotto, visitors can breathe in air containing salt. There are different reasons to visit: a talk and tasting on the one hand, and breathing in salt-rich air in the two areas on the other. Check the latest details about the offerings before your visit.
Winter and Culture
Kronberg Ski Lift is a seasonal attraction: in winter, it offers skiing with views of Lake Attersee. Before travelling, check whether the lift will be operating during your planned visit. Cultural interests can also inform your choice: Straß Resurrection Chapel can be used for cultural events.
