Description

Discover Hallstatt and the Alpine lakes on a private day trip from Kitzbühel. Enjoy a scenic drive, explore Hallstatt at your own pace, and visit St. Gilgen on Lake Wolfgang.
Begin your day with a convenient pickup from your hotel in Kitzbühel, Kirchberg, Reith, Aurach, Jochberg or St. Johann in Tirol. Your private tour guide drives you in a comfortable, air-conditioned car or minivan past the Hochkönig massif and through the Lammertal valley, sharing stories about the region along the way.

Stop at Lake Gosau for a short walk along the shore. Admire the Dachstein glacier reflected in the lake and take some photos. Then continue to Hallstatt, a UNESCO World Heritage village.

Your guide walks you through Hallstatt: the Market Square, the lakeside lanes, the parish church and the classic postcard viewpoint, and tells you about 7,000 years of salt mining history. Afterwards you have free time for lunch and to explore on your own. Visit the Bone House (entrance fee not included) or ride the funicular to the Skywalk "World Heritage View" platform, 350 meters above the lake (ticket not included).

After Hallstatt, drive to St. Gilgen on Lake Wolfgang. Stop for coffee and take some last photos by the lake. Finally, relax on the drive back via Salzburg to your hotel.

In winter, snow-covered Hallstatt and Lake Gosau make this a perfect rest day from skiing. Because the tour is private, it runs at your pace.
