Welcome to Lake Wolfgangsee

In winter, Lake Wolfgang is at its most peaceful. Whether it’s the three Advent markets at the Wolfgangsee Advent in St. Gilgen, Strobl and St. Wolfgang, a leisurely winter walk, an action-packed day’s skiing at the Postalm Winter Park, an Advent ride on the Schafbergbahn, or a gondola ride up the Zwölferhorn mountain.
