The little village of Mattsee, which lies between the lake of the same name and Lake Obertrumer, is a little paradise. The lake facilities are particularly beautiful and the Bavarian village is worth seeing.

The Rupertiweg on the Wallersee is a beautiful section of the eponymous Austrian long-distance hiking trail (No. 10), which stretches from the Bohemian Forest to the Karawanks. In the Wallersee area, this trail shows its particularly idyllic and gentle side.
