The white snow dress has disappeared, blossoms are sprouting and spring is showing its most beautiful side. As the snow melts, the Traunsee changes its color to a delicate turquoise. Hikes in the mountains around the lake show woods and meadows in soft green. The scent of the flowering meadows and the first herbs is in the air. Life at the lake begins quickly. The first excursion with the traditional Traunseeplätze and the first picnic on the uninhabited east bank under the Traunstein allow us to look forward to the summer with joy.

As beautiful as spring is, the Salzkammergut is known for its summer freshness! Long days, pleasantly warm nights, water sports, nature experience, relaxation and the wealth of culture - simply the perfect mix. Traunkirchen, the most marked place in the Salzkammergut for a reason, still attracts artists and scientists today. Be it customs, natural spectacles, music or art: there is something for everyone.

When the sun's rays get weaker, autumn convinces with its gentle rustling of leaves and its bright colors. From the lake to the mountains - calm returns. Spend long autumn walks and end them in our comfortably warm post room with an Austrian pub classic.

With the cold, clear winter on the lake, the customs also announce themselves: The Glöckler drive away evil spirits and are also a popular reason to visit the Salzkammergut. The freezing cold invites you to warm up with a hot drink.

Traunkirchen has conquered our hearts and there is only one thing left: the question of “when”.
