View of the Drachenwand

Highlight • Viewpoint

Almost 700 meters high, the Drachenwand rises above Sankt Lorenz. Hard to believe, but on a regular mountain trail it goes from here up to the highest point of the rock face.

Standing at the foot of the Drachenwand, an impressive limestone rock face rises before you, towering steeply into the sky. Reaching a height of over 1,100 meters, it dominates the western shore of Lake Mondsee. The Drachenwand is a popular destination for hikers and via ferrata climbers. The secured via ferrata is particularly well-known, offering breathtaking views of the lake and the Salzkammergut region.

Through the thick forest, you'll repeatedly enjoy fantastic views of Lake Mondsee. Incidentally, it's one of the warmest bathing lakes in the region. Surrounded by rolling hills and striking rock formations, it offers numerous recreational opportunities such as swimming, sailing, and hiking.

View of Schafberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

Beautiful, comfortable tour with a magnificent view in all directions. After the Eibensee you could still climb the Plomberg before you climb the Marienköpfl. No retreat. Don't forget a snack.
