Winter hiking
Relax and discover
In Salzburg's Lungau region, people enjoy relaxing winter days in the peaceful mountain villages, without stress, with plenty of peace, crystal-clear air and surrounded by a snowy winter wonderland.
The wide, open valley floor with its winding side valleys invites you to go on dreamlike winter hikes in the wintery Lungau mountains. In the Salzburg Lungau, deceleration and experience are no contradiction.
