About the place

Walking tour at Hallstatt

Your day trip begins at Hallstatt, an ancient historic town that has been photographed and even replicated over time. Although hidden between a lake and the mountainside, the little town of Hallstatt is nothing short of charming. Its narrow lanes and wooden building give it a very unique and picturesque look. Learn about the 7000-year history of this town from a live tour guide as you walk through its nooks and corners.

Boat tour

After your walking tour, step onto an elegant boat where you can admire Hallstatt from a different angle. After the boat ride, you can grab some lunch and then take your time exploring the rest of this iconic city.
