Ten Lakes Trekking

Step by step you climb to the ruin ‚Wartenfels’ with beautiful views of the lakes Mondsee and Irrsee. If you want, you can also climb the Schober peak. From here, you get a magnificent panoramic view of the lakes and mountains in the Salzkammergut region.  

In the morning you go by bus to Unterach at lake Attersee. From there you follow the lakeside walk and through the Burggrabenklamm up to alpine pastures to idyllic lake Schwarzensee. Stop for some homemade pastries at Lore’s cabin on the lake. Continue downhill to lake Wolfgangsee. 

Take the bus to the start of the hike in Bad Ischl. Along the historic brine pipeline trail you walk into Rettenbach valley and up to alpine pasture Blaa alp at the foot of the Loser massif into the Ausseerland.

Along the river banks of the Traun the path leads to the traditional summer holiday place Bad Aussee and then through the wild and idyllic Koppental valley where you can visit the Koppenbrueller caves. Take the boat to the world heritage town Hallstatt with its many sights.

Take the cable car up the Salzberg, where the famous Skywalk viewing point with its breathtaking views beckons. Past the salt mine and up to the alpine pastures. Continue across the plateau to Löckermoos. The Bibelschmugglerweg trail leads you down to Lake Gosau, in whose waters the mighty Dachstein glacier is reflected. It's worth stopping for a bite to eat on the shore before taking the bus into the Gosau Valley.

From Gosau the route leads you along forest paths via the Iglmoos alp to the Goiserer Alpine Club Hut, located onto of a mountain ridge with fascinating views onto the Goiserer valley and Lake Hallstatt. You have the option of a summit ascent to the Hochkalmberg with its rock formation called ‚Steinerner Indianer’ (‚stoney Indian’). Descent through the Kesselgraben and along the river Schüttbach down to Bad Goisern on Lake Hallstatt, from there you take the bus to Fuschl am See.
