Weißpriach – a Paradise for Nature Lovers
An excursion to the Weißpriachtal valley takes you past clear streams and lush green meadows amidst an idyllic alpine landscape. Numerous serviced huts, ideally accessible even for families with baby carriages, offer regional delicacies and cordially invite you to stay.
Weißpriach is transformed into a fairytale natural idyll in winter. With its cleared winter hiking trails, cross-country ski trails and snowshoe trails, the Weißpriachtal invites you to enjoy the snow-covered landscape to the full.
Weißpriach is one of the most beautiful side valleys in the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve Salzburger Lungau. At 1,100 m above sea level, you will find a locality that has become renowned as one of the most beautiful places in Austria thanks to the public-service broadcasting ORF. The Longa river and the Wirpitschsee mountain lake as well as its neighboring natural gems are just inspiringly mystical.
Highlights in Weißpriach
The Longa, a naturally winding mountain stream, meanders out of the Weißpriachtal valley and gives the landscape its unique character. The clear, sparkling water is a habitat for rare plants and animals and invites hikers to stay and enjoy its tranquillity and beauty.
The banks of the Longa are ideal for a short break during a hike or simply to linger in the midst of nature.
