This charming village has an idyllic setting in the Gastein Valley. Originally a market town, you'll find the village church surrounded by cobbled streets lined with a collection of cafés offering delicious cakes and shops selling local craft work. Next to the municipal hall, wander through the village's Kurpark, a relaxing haven next to the wonderful Alpen Therme - the spa centre where relaxing thermal waters fill the pools. On either side of the village, follow marked footpaths through woodland up into the stunning surrounding mountains, from where you can admire all that this valley has to offer.
