Hallstatt, a small village located on the shores of a beautiful lake at the foot of Dachstein Mountain is one of the most beautiful places in Austria and Europe.

St. Wolfgang Im Salzkammergut, as the Austrians most commonly call this place, is a charming little town tucked on the shores of Wolfgangsee Lake. The panorama of this small town at the foot of Schafberg Mountain is a scene to remember.

As you might have guessed, New Year’s holidays have brought me a lot of unexpected commitments. I did not finish the advertised text about Rila National Park in time for the announced term. Since it is a bit longer text, it will wait for some quieter days. In the meantime, I want to show you one amazing site that doesn’t require too many words. You will see Lake Hallstatt Austria the way I saw it…

Nussensee is a small Alpine lake in upper Austria. Beautiful, dreamy, almost mystical. With its modest 10 acres, it is one of the smallest lakes to visit this region. It’s almost impossible to find it on the map unless you know exactly where to look for it. How did I find it? By accident and pure luck, as usual. One of the most beautiful parts of Austria is located in the west of the country….

Named after the historic town, Lake Hallstatt hides authentic attractions: numerous hiking trails, amazing bike routes, numerous waterfalls, salt mines, ice caves and much, much more.
