The village of Obertraun is set on the eastern shores of the beautiful Hallstatter See Lake in the Inner Salzkammergut region of Austria. Boasting a unique blend of 7000 year old history and stunning natural beauty, the Inner Salzkammergut is a special place to visit. Indeed, it is not only the regions cultural heritage but also its majestic mountains and unspoilt nature that led the UNESCO to declare it a cultural and natural World Heritage Site, with the beautiful village of Hallstatt at its heart. The ferry will transport you across the lake, providing a stunning panorama of Hallstatt, where you can spend a day exploring the narrow streets, churches and museum, The pristine nature of the lakes, mountains and woods in the shadow of the Dachstein provides a real paradise for the wide range of activities that can be enjoyed in the area.
