Beautiful view down to Lake Attersee

A great viewpoint and a super small forest playground with a tunnel slide are the highlights of a child-friendly hike from Nußdorf.

Very nice area, gladly again,

The lakeside promenade in the village of Attersee on Lake Attersee is an idyllic retreat in the Upper Austrian Salzkammergut region, delighting both those seeking relaxation and those interested in culture. With its sweeping views over the shimmering lake and the surrounding rolling hills, it invites you to take a relaxing detour during a leisurely bike ride along the water all year round. A special stop along the promenade is the Pile Dwelling Pavilion. Here, visitors learn fascinating facts about the Stone Age pile dwellings that were once built directly on the lake. Although the settlements are now underwater, the pavilion vividly brings their history back to the surface – a worthwhile stop for anyone who enjoys combining culture with exercise.

With the appointment of the Schaunberger as bailiffs in 1249, the name Kammer appeared for the first time with Haidfalk von Chamer (Hæidfolcho de Chamer). A castle chamber is mentioned for the first time in 1260. This "Veste Camer im Adersee", later Schloss Kammer, was expanded on a small island in the lake by the Schaunbergers to become the administrative center of the Attergau. In the "Schaunberger feud" between the Habsburg Duke Albrecht III and Count Heinrich von Schaunberg, Reinprecht II of Wallsee conquered the moated castle in 1380. On the occasion of the peace treaty of 1383, the Schaunbergers were forced to sell Kammer to the duke. The now princely Attergau estates of Attersee/Kogl, Frankenburg and Kammer were pledged. As early as 1383, the governor of Upper Austria, Heinrich IV von Wallsee, was the first pledgee. The Jörger family followed in 1483 and from 1499 it was the Lords of Polheim. In 1540, the rich Hanns Hofmann, Baron of Grüenpüchel and Strechau, bought Kammer as free property, and in 1570 Kammer was bought back by the Habsburgs. To cover debts, Emperor Rudolf II finally had to sell the dominions in 1581 to his chamberlain and ambassador to Spain, Hans Freiherr von Khevenhüller. He was made a count in 1593. His three dominions, Frankenburg, Kogl and Kammer, now formed the County of Frankenburg. The moated castle, which could only be reached via a drawbridge, was significantly enlarged between 1622 and 1649 (construction of the knight's hall). Source: www.atterwiki.at
