Enjoy nature
Weisspriachtal is one of the most beautiful side valleys in Lungau. Home to the Longa mountain river and Wirpitschsee tarn, Weisspriach was chosen by viewers of the Austrian TV show "9 Plätze 9 Schätze" as the most beautiful spot in Salzburg and the third most beautiful location in all of Austria.
The landscapes of Weisspriachtal combine steep, rugged summits with gentle countryside. Which means, you are always certain to find the perfect route for your holiday excursions: from leisurely strolls along level gravel paths flanked by alpine pastures in the upper valley, to adventurous mountain ascents. In winter, too, the landscapes here have to be seen to be believed. Weisspriach, with the Fanningberg ski area, is the ideal destination for a relaxed winter getaway!
"Nature doesn't have to exert itself to be important. It already is." - Robert Walser
