The dream lake for everyone

Here, the hills of the Alpine foothills merge picturesquely into the magnificent mountain world of the Northern Limestone Alps and in the midst of this splendor lie the two lakes that give the area its name, the crystal-clear Traunsee and the green-turquoise Almsee.

Here you will find the right vacation offer for every season!

Hotels and accommodations

Industrial culture themed tours

The term "industrial culture" combines technology, culture and social history; it encompasses the lives of all people in industrial society, their everyday lives, their living and working conditions. The aim of the project is to develop bookable products and offers with added value and to bring living industrial culture closer to people in the form of stories and places - this and much more will be on the project's numerous agendas.

Exciting themed tours will be offered every week on the trail of industrial culture!
Each week, a different museum will be the venue for such an exciting museum tour.

Hammer

Music theatre of the RAT Big Band

The story of Robert and Julia in 1987 in Scharnstein....

A summer in the early eighties. Julia, called Juli, the headmaster's daughter, is back from boarding school and meets her first love Robert, son of a family of scythe workers, again at the village fair. He immediately realises that she is still wearing the ring he gave her. It is completely worn out, a cheap plastic thing from a chewing gum machine, full of hope for the future. He had given it to her on the last evening when she left for boarding school. Two years later, she still wears it.

The music theatre project "Hammer" deals with an upheaval in the history of the scythe industry. More about the project at salzkammergut-2024.at
