Hallstatt
A tiny lakeside village where steep mountain slopes rise directly behind the old town.
The feel of it
Small, dramatic and completely Alpine.
Hallstatt is compact enough to explore at an unhurried pace. The narrow lanes, traditional houses and mountainside setting make even a short stop feel special.
Go early or stay later in the day for quieter streets and time to take in the lake and village properly.
