This time, I'm sharing my experience of taking the cable car in Obertraun, southeast of Lake Hallstatt in Austria. In this town, you can buy a package ticket that includes a cable car ride up Dachstein Mountain and a visit to either the Ice Cave or the Mammoth Cave. Of course, you can also just buy a ticket for the cable car. To take this cable car, you first need to buy a ticket at the ticket office, and then you can queue up for the ride. The cable car has several segments. The first stop is where you can visit the Ice Cave or the Mammoth Cave. The second segment takes you further up the mountain to the Five Fingers viewing platform. The scenery along the cable car ride is beautiful, and I highly recommend it.

Hallshtat is expensive, and I want to sleep in a room with a view of Hallshtat Lake! At times like this, I recommend the Haus Am See hotel located in Obertraun. It is run by an elderly couple, and check-in is only possible at certain times. Please be careful as there may be additional fees or check-in may not be possible after a certain time. The rooms are clean and very warm, making it very comfortable to sleep. The highlight of this place is the view of Hallshtat Lake 🦢, which can be seen beyond the terrace. Although it was cloudy on the day I visited, on clear days, not only the village of Hallshtat but also the stars can be seen at night ✨. I was worried because there were many reviews saying that the elderly couple was unfriendly, but they were extremely kind and even allowed me to check in early at 11 am! 📍 Haus Am See (Obertraun 169, 4831 Obertraun, Austria) ⏰ Check-in 15:00 Check-out 10:30 💸 Lake view terrace room starts from around 160,000 won 🅿 ◾ Tax not included (3 euros per person per night) ◾ Check-in time is from 07:00 to 19:00 every day ◾ If you arrive after 18:00, prior arrangements are necessary (via email or phone) #HotelReview #HallshtatHotel #ObertraunHotel

Have you been to Five Fingers Observatory? We went up high to escape the summer heat!! There's no separate air conditioning on Earth, lol The coolness of the eternal snow 🌊 The view is also amazing! A shot with the eternal snow in short sleeves in summer! #Hallstatt #SummerCapture #AustriaTravel #SummerCapture

Before going to Hallstatt for lunch, we deliberately went to the shore of Obertraun and wanted to admire Lake Hallstatt from another angle. It is just 5km away from Hallstatt, but it is far from famous, one is famous and one is unknown. The obscure Obertraun is addictive, and the feeling of being away from the world is easy to find in Traun. There are no postcard angles here, and there are only the alpine lakes and green grasses, as well as the lakes and mountains that are at your fingertips. There is a large grass on the lakeside, and some facilities for children to play are sporadically placed. We watched a family of three generations walking on the grass, Mom and Dad pushed the stroller, and the mother turned back from time to time to let the grandparents behind her catch up. The family walked and bowed and laughed, then sat down and watched the distant scenery together. I looked in my eyes and suddenly felt that some places were like art works for appreciation, such as Hallstatt; and some places are for you to let go of everything and enjoy slow life, such as Shangte. Lawn. I want to be perfect here: boating and swimming in summer; hiking, hiking and cycling in spring and autumn; skiing and hot springs in winter; and beautiful scenery in four seasons. Here, compared to Hallstatt, there is a wider and wider world where you can ride wild. It's no wonder that the landlord and her wife have to give up their jobs, leave Germany and the UK, and come to Traun to run the B&B. lace has a water park, and the autumn and winter are slightly depressed. I don't know how many bears and children will jump from this slide in the summer, splashing into the water and splashing big splashes? The scenery of Obertraun is ideal for cycling, and there are bicycles available for rent at the hotel. There are many signs for cycling routes nearby, reserved for those who really play.

The Seehotel Grner Baum has a history of more than 300 years! Empress Sisi, Austrian writers Adalbert Stifter, Agatha Christie and many other celebrities have stayed at this hotel, right in the town centre by the lake, facing the square on one side. The other side is facing the lake, very close to the dock of the boat, which is the best location! But I didn't book a lake view room, the balcony of the room is facing the small square! The restaurant on the first floor of the hotel has two parts, outdoor and indoor. The outdoor lake can be viewed from the outside and the view is great! There are not only boats in the lake, but also some wild ducks and swans

#celebrateit A boat ride that you will never forget. It is the best way to get to Halshtatt in my opinion because in that case you can see the stunning beauty of the city from the water. The ride itself is very pleasant with chill atmosphere. Take a sit on the upper deck so you can enjoy the passing boats and mountains and simply breath the fresh air. Highly recommended to try.

#WinterTravel Obertraun is a dreamy tourist destination in autumn and winter, and the local natural landscape shows a special charm at this time. Walking on the grass, you can see the autumn leaves all over the mountain and the silvery white snow-covered mountain tops. Sometimes the air is filled with a fresh breath, which makes people feel relaxed and happy, and sometimes the mist is looming and full of mysterious colors. I especially like to sit quietly by the lake and appreciate the reflection of the lake and the surrounding mountains. This tranquility makes me forget the hustle and bustle of the city. #GlobalTravel

Hallstatt is the setting for "Frozen"! Many people want to take pictures of the famous scenery! However, there is very little information about sightseeing, so some people just go for a day trip without staying. If you are staying there, we recommend some activities. This time, we recommend the ice cave called "Ice Cave" 🧊 [How to get there] 🚌Bus From Hallstatt bus stop Hallshtatt Lahn to Winkl b.Obertraun Dachsteinseilbahn Talstation (Dachstein is also known as Dachstein) It takes about 15 minutes to arrive. The bus runs about once every 30 minutes. We recommend leaving in the morning. As soon as you get off the bus, you will find the ticket counter. 🎫 There are several other tickets available, such as tickets to tour the caves and tickets to climb to the top of the mountain. This time, the weather was unfortunate, so I only went to tour the caves. (5th photo, middle ticket) I went there on June 12th. It was really cold. Please refer to the 3rd photo for clothing, but even Uniqlo's Ultra Light Down is cold, so I recommend wearing tights underneath. + Warmers too! It's especially below freezing inside the cave. You have to walk along a mountain path to the cave, which is quite tough! But the scenery and air are amazing✨ Even when it's cloudy, the Dachstein mountains are beautiful and magnificent!! It was a great experience♡ You go through the ice cave in a group. The ice world was fantastic...! You spend about 50 minutes in the cave. Make sure you wear shoes that you can move around in well🥾 You'll be amazed by the rare sights you can't see. Be sure to enjoy some activities during your stay in Hallstatt 💓 📍Location: Unnamed Road, 4831 Obertraun, Austria 💰Price per person: €49.90 #Hallstatt #EuropeTravel #OverseasTravel #Austria

To get to Hallstatt, Austria, you have to go through the Obertraun region. I got off at the train station in Obertraun and took a bus. The bus stop is a bit far and you have to cross the railroad tracks. #OverseasFlightEvent #OverseasTravel #EuropeTravel

In the northern foothills of the Austrian Alps, there is an area known as the Salzkammergut Lake District, dotted with lakes of various sizes, surrounded by steep mountains, vast meadows, and clear waters, as if it were a paradise on earth. Not far from Hallstatt, one of the most beautiful towns and a famous tourist destination, there is a lake named Traun, which is much larger than Lake Hallstatt. According to the data, the depth of the lake reaches more than 190 meters. Near Hallstatt, there is a small town called Obertraun, but I don't know if it has any connection with Lake Traun; perhaps it's just a similarity in name. There are several small towns along the lake, and the slightly larger town at the northern end is Gmunden. Lake Traun has historically been important because of its salt mines, so this area has always been royal territory. The town of Gmunden has a long history, and the lake has brought a spirit to the city. In addition to the salt industry, Gmunden is also famous for producing green-glazed ceramics. The town still retains many historical buildings from the Renaissance period, including the town hall and castles, among which the Ort Castle is an ancient castle built in the 17th century. I passed by Lake Traun on my way from Hallstatt to Vienna, the capital of Austria. The hotel for my journey had already been arranged, and looking at these beautiful lakeside towns, I could only make a brief stop. Sitting quietly on a bench by the lake, I enjoyed the fresh air and beautiful scenery. Perhaps it's because Austrians pay special attention to environmental protection, or there are no polluting industries, or the population density is low, but in any case, the entire lake district left a particularly good impression on me. The water quality is clear and transparent, and the surrounding mountains, forests, and grasslands are fully covered with vegetation, making it a delightful place that one does not wish to leave. Doing nothing but sitting quietly allows one to communicate harmoniously with nature and feel the wonderful ambiance of the natural world with one's soul. Reluctantly, I must continue my journey, leaving behind beautiful memories. Perhaps in the near future, I will find an opportunity to return to this beautiful lake district to enjoy the gifts that nature has bestowed upon humanity.

Do you know the town of Hallstatt in Austria? It has been used as a filming location for many movies and dramas. In this quiet town, there is a place called the Five Fingers Observatory. You can see the snow-covered mountains from the best observatory. #MayTravelSupportEvent #OverseasTravel #EuropeTravel

📍Dachstein🏔️[2995m] ✔The Alps of Austria and a UNESCO World Heritage Site with outstanding natural scenery. To get to Five Fingers, you have to take a cable car up, put on Yeti shoes, and walk along the mountain range for 30 minutes. Since the snow was over 3 meters deep, I felt it would be really dangerous if I didn't wear Yeti shoes, and I eventually gave up because of the continuous whiteout,,,🤣 ✅You have to follow the signs to survive🤣 🏷If you go to Five Fingers in winter, you have to buy a ticket that includes Yeti shoes. #EuropeanTravel #AustrianTravel #Alps
