The picturesque little town of Traunkirchen lies at an altitude of 422 m by the lovely Traunsee lake in the Salzkammergut. Visitors are attracted by the hospitality and the interesting traditions, and especially by the breathtaking landscape. The view
of the wonderful mountain panorama and the idyllic lake is enough to make anyone gasp. The centre of Traunkirchen is located on a peninsula at the western shore of the lake and is characterised by the impressive backdrop of the Traunstein (1,691 m). The prime
location means the town has something for everyone: active holidaymakers have approx. 8 km of winter hiking trails, a natural tobogganing run and approx. 14 km of cross-country trails; relaxation seekers can go on a romantic horse-drawn carriage ride.
