Summer is pure magic in the Alps – even more so here in Obertauern and in its neighbouring towns of Tweng and Untertauern.
Discover places that, idyllic as they are, will fill your heart with pure joy and a sense of freedom hardly to be found anywhere else. The mountains are calling. Do you hear them?
Over hill and dale
350 kilometers of hiking trail in Salzburg
A spectacle of nature
Let yourself be mesmerised by the roaring waters of the Johannes Waterfall, shooting down rugged rock and mossy stone. Nowhere else can the force of nature be seen better. It’s a spectacle for the entire family, making for a perfect highlight along hikes from the Felseralm, Gnadenalm, or the Südwiener hut.
High above the valley
It only takes a few minutes to ascend from the bottom of the valley to the top of a mountain: Hiking via gondola is the next big thing, popular with all ages. Lifts such as the Grünwaldkopfbahn or the Hochalmbahn make it easy for you to climb the mountain and spare you the grind of walking down again.
Once you get out of the lift high above the valley, you can jump right into your hike, surrounded by superb panoramas wherever the mountain breeze takes you.

Feel your heart racing faster and faster with every metre you gain in elevation. At the top of the mountain, freedom awaits. Obertauern is the place to be this summer, offering steep climbs for adventurous mountain bikers, smooth rides along the valley for families with kids, and real challenges for pros. We’re also happy to organise tours with our experienced guides for you and your group.
