  • One Day in Hallstatt Itinerary: The Perfect Hallstatt Day Trip

Panoramic view of Hallstatt from the Classic Postcard Viewpoint, a must visit place on every Hallstatt itinerary

Despite its modest size, the charming Austrian village of Hallstatt isn’t short of wonderful attractions. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Hallstatt is full of traditional architecture and museums, as well as a fascinating peek into salt mine history.

As it’s situated on the banks of Lake Hallstatt in the mountainous region of Salzkammergut, this dream destination offers huge appeal to nature lovers and outdoorsy types as well.

It’s perfectly possible to see the best of Hallstatt in one day as part of a wider Austria itinerary . The alpine village is a popular day trip from Salzburg and slots nicely into any Austria road trip itinerary as well. You can book a tour to Hallstatt from Salzburg or visit independently, as this itinerary is about to demonstrate.

To help you plan all the logistics of your visit, I have curated the following one day Hallstatt itinerary which covers all the practical details you’ll need as well as the best things to see during your day trip. If you have longer than one day in Hallstatt then I’ve included some tips on how you can expand your itinerary.

Morning of Your Hallstatt Itinerary

I recommend spending the morning of your Hallstatt day trip by wandering around the town center, checking out the notable attractions and beautiful viewpoints, and of course, taking tons of photos.

You can see the highlights of Hallstatt Zentrum comfortably over the course of one morning because the town is tiny and walkable. Below is a quick overview of the places you can visit during your self-guided walk.

Marktplatz Hallstatt

Dominated by a fountain and statue of the Holy Trinity, Marktplatz Hallstatt is the very center of the town and is adorned with picturesque alpine buildings that will make any photographer croon.

Spend some time roaming the quaint area, dipping into the cafes to pick up Austrian pastries, and mooching through souvenir shops.

Depending on what time you visit, the buildings may be awash with summer blooms or coated with a layer of thick snow. During the warmer months, there are often concerts and religious events held in the marketplace while come winter, it hosts the annual Christmas Market. 

Colorful houses at Marktplatz Hallstatt

Evangelisches Pfarramt

There are a couple of churches in town that you will spot while exploring on foot during your day trip to Hallstatt. A relic of the late 18th century, Evangelisches Pfarramt is an iconic element of the Hallstatt skyline and affords a lovely view of the lake from the tower.

Michaelskapelle, Beinhaus & Ossuary 

The chapel and cemetery of Michaelskapelle sit just to the north of the village. Inside the church, you can see the Hallstatt ossuary, a collection of hundreds upon thousands of human skulls and bones.

In a touching sentiment, the skulls are inscribed with the name of the deceased, their year of passing, and intricate floral paintings. 

If you want to visit the ossuary then the admission cost is €1.50. It’s open to tourists from Wednesday to Sunday, 10 am – 5 pm. 

Classic Postcard Viewpoint 

You’ll agree that everywhere you look in Hallstatt is worth stopping to snap a photo, but it’s still worth visiting one or two of the official viewpoints.

Walk less than two minutes north of the churchyard and you will find the point marked as ‘Aussichtspunkt Hallstatt’ on Google Maps, or ‘classic viewpoint.’ From here you will get a striking shot of the village within its mountain setting, the perfect memento from your day trip to Hallstatt.

Hallstatt Waterfall 

It might surprise you to hear that there is a waterfall in the heart of Hallstatt! It might not quite rival the massive, tropical waterfalls of Bali and the Philippines, but it gets pretty close and offers up some fantastic photography opportunities.

The trail starts not far from Marktplatz and it takes a pleasant 20 minutes to reach the attraction.

Hallstatt Waterfall

Small Island

Head south of the village to Small Island, which floats a few meters off the lakeside. The teeny island is connected to the mainland by an equally teeny bridge and once you cross over you’ll have a clear view of the village.

It takes 15 minutes to walk to Small Island from Marktplatz, so you might want to make this either your first stop or last stop of the morning on your Hallstatt itinerary.

Afternoon of Your Hallstatt Itinerary

Salzbergwerk hallstatt.

For the afternoon of your one day in Hallstatt, you can head to one of the town’s most interesting attractions, the salt mine. With a 7,000-year history, the mine is one of the oldest of its kind in the world.

The mine is located higher up in the mountains and you basically have two options to get there.

You can ride the Salzbergbahn funicular from the town center (near the P2 parking lot) which takes a few minutes and delivers you a 10-15 minute walk from the mine entrance. The cost is €22 for a return or €12 one way.

You can also purchase a combo ticket for the funicular and the salt mine, it costs €40 per person.

Alternatively, you can opt to hike up for free. This takes around 1-1.5 hours which will definitely lengthen your Hallstatt itinerary. The route itself is well-marked and easy to follow, however, it’s pretty steep, so be prepared with proper shoes and lots of water.

If you don’t use the funicular at all, then the entrance to the salt mines only costs €27 per person. In this case, you’ll need to calculate some extra time for hiking down as well (it takes around 45-60 minutes).

The mine is only accessible via a guided tour and comprises around 2 km (1.2 miles) of walking and the rest is via mine train. The tour itself takes around 70-80 minutes and they depart every 30 minutes between 9 am – 4 pm. You need to be there 30 minutes prior to the start time.

It’s important to wear sturdy shoes and warm clothing as the temperature below ground averages 8°C (46°F). You’ll get a protective jacket and trousers prior to the tour that you’ll need to put on top of your regular clothes.

Therefore even if you’re visiting in the heat of the summer, it’s best to wear jeans and t-shirts rather than dresses or skirts (or at least have a change of clothes in your backpack for the tour).

Salt mines at Salzbergwerk Hallstatt

Hallstatt Skywalk

Warm up after your mine tour at one of the most scenic stops of your one day Hallstatt itinerary. The Hallstatt Skywalk is an observation deck that juts out 350 meters (1,148 feet) above the town and grants an uninterrupted view of the lofty ranges.

There is no entrance fee to visit the viewpoint so if you’re not fussed about the mine tour I’d still recommend popping up to take the sights in.

Restaurant Rudolfsturm

Either for lunch or as an afternoon treat, you can pay a visit to this scenic cafe which has a terrace that overlooks the lake and mountains. It’s located right next to the Hallstatt Skywalk so you can easily visit after taking in the scenic views.

If you have a sweet tooth, try their apple strudel – it’s seriously one of the best I’ve ever eaten!

Evening of Your Hallstatt Itinerary

Hike to waldbachstrub waterfall or glacier garden.

Conclude the perfect one day Hallstatt itinerary with a leisurely hike that gives you a final opportunity to experience the majestic nature. There are two suggestions that are located close to one another in the Echern Valley of Hallstatt: Waldbachstrub Waterfall or Glacier Garden.

If you don’t want to move your car or you arrived with a different kind of transport, you can start both hikes from Hallstatt Parking P2. From there, you have multiple options to start your hike: you can either take Echerntalweg, Kohlstattweg then Malerweg, or cross the river and walk along Malerweg until you reach Parkplatz Echerntal.

Alternatively, if you’re running short on time or you don’t want to hike that much, you can drive your car to Parkplatz Echerntal as well.

Right after passing by the parking lot, you’ll be presented with a fork. You can take the paved road on the left which will lead you to the Glacier Garden (Gletschergarten).

This is a cluster of unique rocks, landforms, fairy pools, and streams that formed during the last Ice Age as the glacier in the gorge receded. This natural wonder is accessible by following the signs for Simonyhütte and the Wiesberghaus.

If you take the gravel road on the right, you’ll be heading in the direction of Waldbachstrub Waterfall. Just a heads up: although the trail is signposted, none of the signs actually say the name of the waterfall so it’s quite easy to get lost. You will come across some forks during the trail, when in doubt, always take the right one!

Waldbachstrub waterfall Hallstatt

To be completely transparent, we didn’t manage to find the waterfall during our hike. At the third or fourth fork, we accidentally took the wrong turn and ended up going up to the Glacier Garden.

If we would have taken the right turn and crossed the little stream, we would have found the waterfall within 15 minutes. But unfortunately, we took the left and after climbing up lots of stairs, we found ourselves at the Glacier Garden. Not complaining though as it was really beautiful, but it would have been easier to just take the paved road from the parking lot if I would have wanted to come here.

Anyways, reaching the Glacier Garden from the Echerntal parking lot takes around 30 minutes while hiking to Waldbachstrub Waterfall takes around 40-45 minutes.

Unless you skip some of the earlier activities on the itinerary, you will need to choose one hiking option. However, if you have longer than one day in Hallstatt then I highly recommend you tackle both of these hikes.

Restaurant am See

After an exhausting but (hopefully) wonderful day exploring Hallstatt, it’s finally time to sit down and satiate your hunger! You might have already scouted out a place to eat during your stroll around Hallstatt Zentrum but if not then I suggest heading to Restaurant am See.

Tables spread out over the lakeside terrace providing enchanting panoramic views as you eat. The menu comprises typical Austrian fare, freshly caught fish, and a hearty mix of beers, wines, and spirits. 

Useful Info for Visiting Hallstatt 

How to get to hallstatt.

Salzburg is the most convenient springboard for your Hallstatt day trip and features the closest international airport. If you rent a car then the scenic drive from Salzburg to Hallstatt will take 1-1.5 hours to complete.

Arrive as early as possible to secure parking in town at one of the two central parking lots, especially during summer, public holidays, and weekends. Hallstatt is very popular among tourists and it’s not rare that the parking lots fill up before 10 am.

Taking the public bus or train from Salzburg takes longer so you will definitely need to book a hotel in town to make this Hallstatt itinerary worthwhile. Buses and trains both take around 3 hours each way and require a couple of changes.  

Bus number 150 departs from Salzburg Hofwirt (C) and takes you as far as Bad Ischl Bahnhof. From here you will need to switch to the 542 bus and then again to the 543 at Gosaumühle.

Trains depart from Salzburg Hbf with a change at Attnang-Puchheim before reaching the terminal in Obertraun on the eastern side of the lake. At this point, you will need to hop on a ferry across the lake to reach Hallstatt.

Best time to visit Hallstatt

Defined by four distinct seasons, the village is a year-round destination and the best time to plan your day trip to Hallstatt depends on your personal preferences.

Peak season is during the summer months of July/August, this is when the town sees the most crowds and the hottest temperatures.

In total contrast, the town is likely to experience snow during the winter months of November through February when the temperature can drop to 0°C (32°F). This makes it a popular destination for winter sports enthusiasts and the city bursts into a ski resort.

Overall, the late spring and autumn months are the most pleasant time to visit when the scenery is alive with summer flowers or leafy autumn foliage. Temperatures lingering around 15-19°C (59-62°F) make these times of year the perfect time to include some light hiking in your Hallstatt itinerary.

How to get around Hallstatt

Once you reach Hallstatt you can easily explore the village on foot as it’s so tiny. Most of the attractions on my itinerary are within walking distance so I recommend parking your car for the duration of your one day in Hallstatt. In fact, you’ll have to – the town center is a car-free zone!

All the places on this Hallstatt itinerary are accessible by foot, however, some of them are located higher up in the mountain. While it’s totally possible to hike up there, you might want to take advantage of the funicular that transports you to the top within minutes.

Where to stay in Hallstatt

Hallstatt is a small place and hotel options are quite limited (and expensive). The following three places are my recommendations for where to stay in the center of town.

Make sure to book in advance to secure your accommodation, especially if you plan your Hallstatt itinerary during summer!

Hallstatt Hideaway

LUXURY – Hallstatt Hideaway

This adults-only resort is located right on the waterfront and comprises a deluxe portfolio of suites that offer lake views. Modern interiors feature a rustic twist and the most decadent options come with additional features ranging from private patios to private spa pools.

Heritage Hotel Hallstatt

MID-RANGE – Heritage Hotel Hallstatt

All rooms and suites at this 4-star hotel provide lake views and are equipped with a private bathroom, coffee maker, and homely touches. The accommodation spans three buildings and there is also a restaurant and sauna on site.

Gasthof Bergfried

BUDGET – Gasthof Bergfried

This centrally located guest house features compact rooms with en suite bathrooms with the option to upgrade to a balcony suite. The property offers a shared relaxation area with a spa and sauna.

Alternatively, if you have a car, you might want to stay a little further out of town in one of the surrounding hamlets. One of the best options is Obertraun, from where you can reach Hallstatt within 10 minutes by car or you can also take advantage of the ferry.

We stayed at Haus Salzkammergut on our second visit to Hallstatt and absolutely loved everything about the hotel! Great location, amazing views from the balcony, lovely owners, cute doggie, and delicious breakfast. I can only recommend this place!

In case the hotel is full or you’re looking for something else, you can check all the accommodation options in Obertraun here .

A day trip to Hallstatt – The PERFECT itinerary + budget

Hallstatt is one of the most picturesque towns in Europe. With wooden houses, a beautiful lake in front of it guarded by majestic mountains, and some of the most incredible views, Hallstatt should be on your itinerary when visiting Austria.

Girl at Hallstatt lookout point

After spending a few days in Salzuburg , we decided to visit this fairytale town and explore it for an entire day. We saw many pictures from Hallstatt on the internet but nothing could have prepared us for what we were about to see. You can check out the best viewpoints here . 

If you’re planning to spend one day in Hallstatt, I’m here to help you. In this post, you’ll find all the information you need about this beautiful town together with some really useful tips & tricks.

1. Is Hallstatt worth visiting?

So, you’re traveling to Austria but you’re not sure whether or not you should visit Hallstatt? The truth is, Hallstatt was my favorite part of my road trip through Austria and I couldn’t recommend it enough!

It’s true, sometimes it might get busy and everything in Hallstatt is quite pricey but hey, those views are definitely worth it! This little town, overlooking the Hallstatt Lake will surprise you at every step.

Here are just a few reasons to convince you to spend at least one day in Hallstatt.

The views are breathtaking

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Nothing can compare with the view from the famous Hallstatt lookout point or the view from the Hallstatt Salt Mine platform. 

Hallstatt wooden house view

I know that planning to visit Hallstatt in one day may sound difficult but you’ll have plenty of time to enjoy the best of this little town. Don’t forget your camera home because you’ll want to photograph those cute houses, traditional stores, and the surrounding mountains.

You’ll escape the hustle and bustle of bigger cities

If you’re travelling to Hallstatt from Vienna, this town will feel like a breath of fresh air. It’s so small that you can easily walk from one end to the other in just fifteen minutes.

Also, visiting Hallstatt is a great way to discover more about the culture of Austria. Hallstatt is a well-preserved town, with incredible architecture, many traditional restaurants and friendly locals who will make sure that you’ll have an unforgettable experience.

2. The best time to visit Hallstatt

Winter in Hallstatt view

Hallstatt is a charming town, no matter the season. During the winter, the snow that covers the town and the smoking chimneys will invite you to drink a hot cup of tea in one of the traditional restaurants. During the summer, the sun glowing over the mountains will invite you to go hiking.

You can visit Hallstatt any time you want but if you’d like to avoid the hot summer days and the cold winter, I recommend visiting Hallstatt in spring or autumn.

Good to know: Hallstatt tends to get very busy during summer. For a more relaxed experience, without too many tourists, I recommend visiting it in spring, autumn or winter (avoid Christmas). One thing to keep in mind if you plan to visit Hallstatt in winter is that the salt mine and the funicular are closed.

You can visit Hallstatt as a day trip from Salzburg . You can also book online a tour from Vienna to Hallstatt .

3. Interesting facts

View over the Hallstatt Lake

Before telling you more about the perfect one-day Hallstatt itinerary, I want to share a few interesting facts about this town. When visiting a new place, it’s nice to know a little bit about its history.

  • Hallstatt has a population of only 778 people. Almost all its residents work in the tourism industry, promoting their beautiful town.
  • Hallstatt is a very small town. You can walk from one end to the other in 15 minutes.
  • A replica of Hallstatt has been built in China. You can read more about it here .
  • Hallstatt is well-known for its salt production, dating back to prehistoric times. If you want, you can even visit the salt mine.
  • Hallstatt is visited by almost 1 million people yearly. During the past few years, Hallstatt took the internet by storm, especially due to its charming look.

4. One day in Hallstatt – itinerary

Is one day in Hallstatt enough? Well, one day is definitely enough to catch the town’s vibe and visit its most important tourist attractions.

I recommend spending one night (preferably the one before) in Hallstatt. You’ll have more time to explore the city and you can wake up early in the morning and get a head start on the other tourists.

That being said, let’s see what you can cover in 24 hours in Hallstatt. I’m not gonna lie, it’s going to be tiring but at the end of the day, you’ll look back and remember all the incredible places you’ve visited (you’ll forget about your aching legs).

If you’re interested in a guided tour, I recommend this 2-hour guided tour in Hallstatt with a professional photographer.

Take the funicular to the salt mine and World Heritage Skywalk

View from the Hallstatt funicular train

From the town, you can take the funicular or hike (about one hour) to the salt mine and the famous World Heritage Skywalk. If you want to visit the salt mine, keep in mind that the guided tour takes 70 minutes. When we visited, we decided to use that time to explore more of Hallstatt instead.

One place you should definitely visit is the World Heritage Skywalk. This glass platform offers the best view over the entire Hallstatt town, lake, and surrounding mountains. There is no separate entrance fee to the skywalk.

View over the World Heritage Skywalk in Hallstatt - glass platform

Taking the funicular (round trip) will cost you 18 euros. For the salt mine entrance fees and opening hours, visit this website .

Good to know: If you plan to visit the salt mine, plan 2.5 hours for this attraction (funicular + salt mine + World Heritage Skywalk). If you decide not to visit the salt mine, 1.5 hours should be enough.

Alternative: take a boat ride on the lake

Boat at Hallstatt Lake

Do you want to see Hallstatt from a different angle? The best way to do that is to go on a boat tour. The tours at Hallstatt will take you to Hallstatt Bahnhst and Obertraun, another two beautiful towns. You don’t have to get off the boat, just sit back and admire the views.

The boat tour on Hallstatt Lake was definitely one of the highlights of my trip. You can book a boat tour from ATO Hallstatt Lahn. To check out the prices, click here .

Go shopping for cute souvenirs

Hallstatt local shops with souvenirs

Hallstatt is full of authentic souvenir shops. From handmade pottery, fridge magnets, home decor, and accessories, you can definitely find the perfect souvenir in Hallstatt. Just take a walk on the Old City streets and you’ll find beautiful boutique stores.

Don’t look for bargains because you won’t find them here. The souvenirs are pricey but the memories you’ll create in Hallstatt are priceless. We ended up buying a fridge magnet and a beautiful handmade bowl.

Visit the Hallstatt Ossuary

Skulls and bones at Hallstatt Ossuary

This is a really unusual place and definitely not for the faint of heart. The Hallstatt Ossuary is a small chamber where a collection of skulls and other human bones are on display. 

The skulls are beautifully painted with flowers and leaves. Also, the name and profession of the deceased are inscribed on them. It’s quite spooky but definitely worth a visit.

Hallstatt is a small town, with limited burial ground. Over the years, the cemeteries started to fill and the bodies were exhumed in order to make room for other people. Due to space scarcity, those bones were taken to the Hallstatt Ossuary which is now one of the most visited tourist attractions in Hallstatt.

Find the famous lookout point

Hallstatt famous lookout point

You can’t visit Hallstatt without taking a photo from the famous lookout point. You can find it on Google Maps as “Postcard Angle”. This lookout point offers the best view towards to city but it can also be quite busy.

-> Check out other incredible viewpoints in Hallstatt . 

Eat at a local restaurant

Restaurant on the lake at Hallstatt

After a full day of sightseeing, you must be really hungry. Visiting Hallstatt in one day is exhausting but the good news is that you can recharge your batteries with some delicious, local food.

Among the best restaurants in Hallstatt are Braugasthof and Brauhaus. If you’re looking for a delicious dessert, make a stop at Cafe Derbl. Here you will find tasty Austrian desserts and homemade sweets. I highly recommend trying the cream strudel with vanilla sauce.

Admire the Old Town

Hallstatt Old Town

Your day of exploring Hallstatt is getting close to the end. Take the last few hours to admire the Old Town. Visit the beautiful Marktplaz and take a few photos with the beautiful traditional homes.

5. Hallstatt day trip – budget

Let’s talk about how much money you’ll need for one day in Hallstatt. As I’ve already said, Hallstatt is an expensive town. Here is a budget breakdown for one person:

  • Accommodation (if necessary) – around 100 euros per night
  • Food – 20 euros per meal
  • Snacks & souvenirs – 10 euros
  • Entrance fees – around 30 euros
  • TOTAL = 100 + 20 x 2 +10 + 30 = 180 euros  (without transport to Hallstatt)

6. How to get to Hallstatt

If you’re looking for transport options to get to Hallstatt, you are in the right place. Planning a day trip to Hallstatt from Salzburg or Vienna might be challenging but I am here to help you. Here are all the transport options.

View from Hallstatt Salt Mine

Salzburg to Hallstatt

The easiest way to get from Salzburg to Hallstatt is to rent a car for one or two days (if you plan to spend one night in Hallstatt). The trip from Salzburg by car should take around one and a half hours.

Once you arrive in Hallstatt, you can choose between the three public parking areas available. If you want to be as close to the Old Town as possible, choose P1 or P2. 

Guided Tour

For a hustle-free experience, book a guided tour. There are tours available for both Vienna and Salzburg and they’re super-affordable. Below are a few choices.

Guided tours from Salzburg:

  • Hallstatt half-day guided tour
  • Hallstatt and Salzkammergut guided tour
  • Hallstatt full-day guided tour

Traveling from Salzburg to Hallstatt by train is not the fastest transport option. The ride can take 2 to 3 hours, depending on the connections and you will have to change trains at Attnang-Puchheim and disembark at Obertraun.

From Obertraun, you will have to take the ferry to Hallstatt which will take another hour. Traveling by train to Hallstatt takes a lot of time and it can be tiring. Make sure to spend one night in this beautiful town and the next day you will wake up fresh for exploring.

Choosing to travel by bus from Salzburg to Hallstatt can be a little complicated. You will have to take the 150 bus from Salzburg to Bad Ischl and then take the bus 542 to Hallstatt. The ride will take about 3 hours – one way.

If you choose to travel by bus, I strongly recommend spending one night in Hallstatt. 

Vienna to Hallstatt

Travelling from Vienna to Hallstatt by train takes at least 4 hours (you will also need to take the ferry from Obertraun to Hallstatt). It is a difficult and tiring trip by train.

I strongly recommend choosing a guided tour from Vienna. You won’t have to worry about transport or itinerary. Below are a few options.

Guided tours from Vienna:

  • Hallstatt day trip
  • Hallstatt, Melk and Salzburg guided tour

7. Where to stay in Hallstatt

I’ve been searching for the best accommodation in Hallstatt, for every budget. This charming town has some of the best hotels in Austria but everything comes at a price. Below are my recommendations.

Good to know: Giving the fact that Hallstatt is a small town, there are only a few hotels to choose from. Make sure you make your booking well in advance in order to find a good hotel for your budget.

  • Luxury – W & S Executive Apartment  –  excellent location, modern & spacious apartment, beautiful terrace, new furniture 
  • Mid Budget – Fenix Boutique Hotel –  good location, clean & spacious rooms, breakfast included
  • Budget – Hallstatt Lakeside –  good location, spacious rooms, lake view from the garden

I hope that this guide helped you plan the perfect one-day itinerary in Hallstatt. I am sure that you will instantly fell in love with this charming Austrian town. If you’re also planning to visit Salzburg, read my awesome travel guide !

Hi, I’m not sure if taxis operate on such long distance. You can try booking a private tour maybe 🙂

I had the chance to visit Hallstatt and it was an absolutely stunning trip. I was able to do so many amazing things while I was there, like exploring the historic center, taking a boat tour on the lake, and hiking in the surrounding mountains. Loved it.

The Ultimate Day Trip Itinerary to Hallstatt, Austria

Halstatt

If the most postcard perfect place on Earth had a name, it would be Hallstatt. Tucked into the towering Austrian Alps, is this little UNESCO World Heritage village that’s beautiful ALL YEAR ROUND! Hallstatt can be explored in a day or less, but if you want to explore more of the Salzkammergut – Hallstatt-  Dachstein UNESCO Heritage Region, I recommend spending two or three days here. You will find the Complete Itinerary to Salzkammergut here .

An easy day trip from both Salzburg and Vienna, the lakeside town of Hallstatt is one of the most beautiful places in Austria and is most definitely worth a visit. In this blog entry you’ll find EVERYTHING you need to know before visiting Hallstatt.

Some Fun Facts on Hallstatt before getting started

Hallstatt houses

Hallstatt is over 7000 years old, and is one of the oldest settlements in Europe. There’s even a period in history named after it – the Hallstatt period (800-400 BC).

Hallstatt is home to the oldest salt mine in the world and is considered to be one of the oldest still inhabited settlements in Europe. For this reason, UNESCO deemed Hallstatt worthy for preservation in 1997. 

Another thing you will see in almost every motive of Hallstatt are some beautiful swans basking in the Hallstatt lake. The swans (or their great-grand swan parents) were imported here in the 1860s by the Austrian Empress Sisi when she vacationed here. She, like her cousin the Mad King Ludwig of Bavaria (whom i will indtroduce to you in detail in another blog entry), was obsessed with swans.

How to get to Hallstatt?

Hallstatt is easy to visit on a day trip from Salzburg. You can also visit Hallstatt from Vienna although it’s further away. If you leave in the morning, you can get here in a few hours by car, bus or train & ferry. 

From Salzburg :

You can either drive (1,15 hours), take the bus all the way (2,15 hours) or go by train and ferry (2,30 hours).

By bus: Take Bus 150 from Salzburg to Bad Ischl. Then change to Bus 542 or 543 towards Gosaumühle/Hallstatt.

By train: Take the train to Attnang-Puchheim. Then change to the train towards Hallstatt train station. At the train station, take the ferry to Hallstatt. 

From Vienna :

You can either drive (3,15 hours) or go by train (3,22 hours): Take the train to Attnang-Puchheim. Then change to the train towards Hallstatt train station. At the train station, take the ferry to Hallstatt.

If you are arriving by car, we recommend parking at Parking Lot No. 2. It’s right at the foot of the funiculars to the salt mine and skywalk, and is also closest to the village.

Note : Vignettes (Motorway Toll Stickers) are mandatory for driving on all Austrian motorways and highways. You can buy one from gas stations, post offices, rest areas, or automobile clubs. A 10-day sticker costs 9.20 Euro.

Walk along the banks of the Hallstatt lake and take in the views of the Dachstein- Krippenstein on one side and the layers of half timbered houses of Hallstatt on the other. The main road, Gosaumühlstrasse, that runs from the north to the south side of the village has breathtaking views round every corner.

The iconic view point of the Village is located on this road – which you will find on Google as the Classic Village Viewpoint, Gosaumühlstrasse 67.

2. Pause and take in the cute little Central sqaure (Markplatz)

Marktplatz Hallstatt

Your trip to Hallstatt should include a visit to the historical town square. It’s really tiny and soooooo cute. The colourful houses, small cafés and picturesque architecture with a statue of the Holy Trinity in the centre, makes it one of the most iconic spots in the village.

3. Stroll the Village and See Hallstatt from above the Rooftops!

Hallstatt roof top

This is a route that not many take. So while all the crowd is down below, walk up along one of the alleyways to catch some mesmerizing views of the village and Hallstatt lake over the rooftops.

Müllerstiege was one of our most favorite spots for beautiful rooftop views.

4. Visit the Hallstatt Cemetery and Ossuary (Bone House) in St. Michael’s Chapel

The Cemetery – 

It’s not often that a cemetery is included in the list of ‘places to visit’ in any itinerary. That said, the one in Hallstatt is beautiful, to say the very least. Each tombstone is beautifully decorated with flowers and the cemetery also offers some incredible rooftop views over Hallstatt. 

View from Church Hallstatt

The Bone House – 

Another fascinating attraction in Hallstatt is no doubt the bone house in St. Michael’s Chapel. And yes, it’s definitely as bizzare as it sounds. The charnel house is filled with bones and human skulls.

As mentioned above, Hallstatt dates back to the early Iron Age (800-400 BC) and all those people who lived here in that time obviously needed a final resting place. They couldn’t all be at the cemetery so the villagers built the bone house.

The bone house is said to have an unusual collection of over 600 artistically painted skulls and even more bones. Most of the skulls were painted in the 18th century, but a few of them are from the 20th century. Every skull is decorated with inscriptions and paint by the deceased family members.

5. Say Hello to the Swans (and Ducks) of Hallstatt and Catch a Boat ride to take in the views of Hallstatt from the water.

hallstatt day trip from munich

If you haven’t already arrived by ferry, have enough time and a great weather to play along, I suggest taking a boat trip on Lake Hallstatt (Hallstätter See). Despite the many clauses, this is one experience that we truly missed due to rain, and from what we have heard, is one you shouldn’t. Also spend a little while on the many piers and say hello to the beautiful swans, the swim really close to you.

6. Visit the Hallstatt Skywalk and the Salzwelten Saltmines

After you’ve spent a few hours in the town, it’s time to head up and see Hallstatt from above! Take the funicular to the top to see the oldest salt mine in the world OR walk there. The hike takes about 1 hour.

At the top, there’s a large patio hanging 360 meters above the town and Lake Hallstatt – this is the Hallstatt skywalk. The mountain scenery from above is so impressive that, even if you’re not visiting the salt mine, you should go there for the view! 

Hallstatt Skywalk –

hallstatt day trip from munich

Funicular Round Trip: €20 per person (without entry to the Saltmines)

Regular opening hours: 9am-6pm (27/3-26/9). 

Due to the Covid 19 regulations you will either need to show proof of vaccination or a negative test to enter the saltmines.

Salzwelten Saltmines –

While the idea of visiting the world’s oldest salt mines did interest us, we weren’t exactly thrilled by the guided tour. It might be extra interesting for kids or for those of you who are actually into these stuff. However it wasn’t for us. In the mine is a salt lake and the place where the Mann in Salz ( a well-preserved corpse of a man discovered in 1734 by miners) was found.

So is Hallstatt worth visiting ?

Hallstatt from above

YES! YES! AND YESSSSS!

Now that said, Hallstatt is no hidden gem. It’s one of the most visited villages in Europe and is touristy ALL YEAR ROUND. So, to have a good experience, you need to adjust your expectations and travel smart.

And by that I mean get there as early in the morning as possible! Have an itinerary ready. Visit the salt mines in the afternoon when it’s hot or even better leave Hallstatt as the crowds start pouring in, and explore the rest of Salzkammergut ( if you are visiting for more than a day, like we did), and come back and enjoy the rest of Hallstatt in the evening.

  • adonisw682 0 contributions 1.0 of 5 bubbles Just Don’t! This was my second trip with EuroTrip Adventures and let’s just say, it will be my last. However, I will say they are prompt with their departure times. Now let’s get to the things that didn’t go so well. The bathroom facility on the bus was locked, so we were discouraged from using the toilet, and was told the toilet was for emergencies only. My question is why have a bathroom on the bus if customers aren’t allowed to use it? What if someone has a medical condition or doesn’t feel well? The trip itinerary wasn’t planned well, which made the trip feel extremely rushed. Also, the tour guide wasn’t very helpful and had a poor attitude. Any information regarding things to see were put on What’s App or the FB group, but you have to understand, not everyone uses those a platforms. If you work in the hospitality industry, you’ve got to be willing to communicate with people, and not just throw something in a chat group hoping everyone will receive the information. I know it’s easy to point out everything that went wrong, but there was zero effort to make anything right. Save yourself time and frustration and avoid this company.

  • Dante S 0 contributions 3.0 of 5 bubbles You get what you pay for Like many people, I hate travelling by bus. It's a long and uncomfortable experience, BUT sometimes it makes sense to travel this way. As for the bus and the general logistics, I thought that part was good. I think the only issue with the trip was how inexperienced/unprepared the trip leader was. This was clearly his first time to Lake Bled and Ljubljana (at least I HOPE it was). When we arrived at Lake Bled, he didn't know where the Tourist Information Center was. Couldn't even point me in the right direction. So I stumbled around for a little while until I finally found it and got a map of the area. When we arrived in Ljubljana, it was the same thing. Everyone was standing around outside the bus while he was trying to figure out which way the city center was. He was finally able to pull up our location in Google Maps and we followed him around until we reached the city center. I completely understand that the trip leader is not a tour guide, BUT knowing the general area and being able to point out something like a tourist information center should be part of the job requirements. Basically, Eurotrip Adventures provides a ride. Nothing more. I'm okay with that. Does it make this company good? No. Does it make them bad? No. It makes them average. Read more Written 17 July 2019

Have taken a few journeys with Eurotrip and the team and I cannot fault the efforts put in by everyone involved. The organisation was second to none and it seemed all in attendance had a great time. I would throughly recommend the trips offered by Charlie and his team as their hard work and dedication shines through from the minute you step on board one of their fabulous coaches. The activities put on are well thought out and their is also an opportunity to explore on your own accord. Amazing team and once in a lifetime trips.

The cruises are really fun and informative. Many provide a taste of the local Krauter Liqueur--Jagermeister is perhaps the most commonly known such drink in the US. The salt mines in this part of the world have been used for centuries.

From my many booking questions, to the actual day of service, everything was thorough and 5-stars. He speaks perfect English, yet is a local German who knows every shortcut and fast-track around the city. You feel like you are VIP when you go on a tour with him. We hired him for 2 airport transfers and a full day tour and each was spectacular and efficient. His 7-series is excellent, even better equipped than the S-Class and it had free in-car wifi as well as the executive back seat package. The BMW is definitely the car to get. Phillip anticipates your needs, and is pleasant and easy going at all times. I highly recommend treating yourself to his services when you are in Munich, it will elevate your trip to the next level. We are already thinking about how we can incorporate him into our next European trip. Thanks Phillip. Read more Written 20 December 2019

  • Slavski29 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Great experience of travelling all over Bavaria with Daetz-Service My wife and I spent two weeks with Philip & Co. of Daetz-Service travelling all over the Bavarian Alps in August 2019. We managed to see all the castles in the area, in addition to several beautiful lakes, towns and mountain peaks (including the highest one in Germany), as well as Eagle's Nest. I mention only some of the places we visited, because frankly there were too many colorful and memorable experiences to list here. Philip & Co. of Daetz-Service get top marks for the level of service, local knowledge, hospitality and friendliness. They really went the extra distance to accomodate every one of our requests. We didn't have to worry about any details such as buying tickets to all the sights and focused entirely on relaxing and vacationing. We have travelled all over the world, and this trip was easily one of the most memorable and best organized. Not to mention that we spent it in the back of a BMW 7 Series (with wifi access) instead of stressing out behind the wheel of a lesser vehicle. Tour guides were not needed either, because Philip and his colleagues possess expert knowledge and gladly share numerous interesting facts about the sights. Daetz-Service is therefore most highly recommended. Read more Written 10 November 2019

  • LEE K 0 contributions 1.0 of 5 bubbles Poor Execution of an Expensive Private Tour and a No-Show for Ride to Airport After reading other positives reviews of the Daetz Driver/Tour Service we decided to book the Munich Lake Konigssee and Berchtesgaden Salt Mine with Lake Cruise private Tour while we were in Germany in June. We also booked a ride with Daetz to take us to the Munich airport from our Munich Hotel for our flight home at the end of our trip in Germany. We were very disappointed with both services. First let me comment on the Lake Konigssee/Berchtesgarden/Salt mine tour: We expected a high level of service from the Daetz firm after reading so many good reviews but we did not receive that on our tour. Here are problems we experienced on our tour. 1) The Daetz driver did not have a sign with our name on it as promised at the Munich Airport where he was to pick us up to begin our tour. We had to ask people standing in the "pick-up" area outside the terminal to find him ourself. 2) Our Driver barely spoke any English and was very difficult to communicate with 3) Our driver was not able to offer any information on the places we were visiting on this tour and did not seem to be familiar with these areas 4) Our Driver seemed to get lost a few times during our trip and was relying on the car’s navigation system for guidance and information from someone he was calling on the phone repeatedly which slowed us down all day 5) We never got to the Salt Mines in Salzburg as we could not get there in time before the days last tours Our expectation was that we would have a Driver/Guide that would keep us on a time table where we would see all sites that we were supposed to see on our tour. Our driver did not know that the Buses to Eagle nest require a scheduled "up the mountain" and "down the mountain" time slot ( we wasted over 1 hour waiting for the down bus). ** NOTE: The driver bought all tickets so we were dependent on him to explain the procedure we were to follow at all these sites.. Our driver did not know that we should get off the boat on the first stop on the Lake Konigsee boat ride if we wanted to have a 1 hour boat ride ( Instead we ended on that boat for over 2 ½ hours to get back to the start point wasting at least another 1 ½ hours). Because of these issues we missed our opportunity to go to the Salt mines in Salzburg because we were out of time that day. Next let me comment on the Munich Airport Shuttle: On July 3 we were scheduled to be picked-up at our Hotel at 10:15am for a ride to the airport for our flight home. No Daetz driver ever showed up. I called the number listed on the Daetz web site to request help when no driver showed and was told that no one was availble to help us. We ultimately had the hotel get us a cab and got to the airport just in time to make our flight. Unacceptable. After we got home and before writing this review I contacted Phillip Daetz the owner of the service about these issues and requested a full refund for the airport ride and a partial refund for the Tour. Mr. Daetz did refund the cost of the Airport ride but did not offer any refund on the messed up tour. I know many others have rated this firm highly but I would caution you to beware. Our experience was terrible and I would not recommend you use this service. Read more Written 7 August 2019

Philip was right on time, exactly in the right place for the pickup, and the car was clean, spacious, and very luxurious. Philip made us feel special, much more so than if we'd have just taken a taxi or some other form of transportation. It was a very pleasant ride. This was our first trip with our dog and we've never used a private car service before but now, I can't imagine going from the train station to the airport or vice versa any other way than working with Daetz.

Munich Austrian Alps, Hallstatt, and Salzburg Private Day Trip provided by Daetz-Service

hallstatt day trip from munich

A Perfect Day in Hallstatt, Austria

There are few places in this world that are as charming as the small village of Hallstatt. Nestled into the side of a mountain on the banks of an alpine lake, this small town is straight out of a postcard. During our stay in Munich, Germany we spent one day in Hallstatt to explore part of Austria’s mountain towns. I so wish we had weeks to explore this beautiful country, but even one day was worth it – what a perfect day.

hallstatt day trip from munich

The drive to Hallstatt from Munich consisted of winding mountain roads with each bend boasting a view more dazzling than the one before it. Three hours in the car were hardly noticeable with all the beauty out our windows.

Arriving in Hallstatt about 2 pm, we decided on a hike up to the waterfall located just above the village for unbelievable views of the valley below. The short hike only took about 30 minutes to complete but so worth it.

hallstatt day trip from munich

After our hike and grabbing a bite to eat, we rented a boat (probably the BEST way to photograph Hallstatt). The motorized boats were very easy to navigate and more affordable than I anticipated (only 12 euros for a half hour). This dreamy boat ride along the shores of Hallstatt, with the beautiful Austrian architecture and views of the Alps was one of the best memories I have from our European trip.

hallstatt day trip from munich

The next couple hours we spent wandering the streets of Hallstatt. I’m not sure it gets more delightful than these views.

hallstatt day trip from munich

Tips for visiting Hallstatt:

  • During the day, thousands of visitors arrive on tour busses to spend the day in Hallstatt. The best way to avoid the crowds is to make sure you have either an early morning or evening to spend in town. By 5:30, most of the tourists were gone and we had most of the streets to ourselves.
  • Don’t stay in Hallstatt, stay in Obertraun. Accommodations in Hallstatt are very limited and very expensive. To save money, stay 5 minutes away (30 minute walk) in Obertraun.
  • Most people only explore the lower levels on Hallstatt. To avoid the crowds, head up to the upper levels of the town, near the Ossuary and cemetery.

Accommodations:

We stayed at the Obertrauner Hof , located in Obertraun, just a short 5 minute drive from Hallstatt. Our room was located on the 4 th floor with no elevator – but the view from our room was just lovely.

Although, I am unable to comment on the breakfast portion of this local bed & breakfast, as we had to leave early in the morning to make it back to Munich for a train. The room was simple but very comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would recommend it.

I booked our room through Airbnb. If you wish to receive $40 off your first stay with Airbnb – please click here.

Places you can visit along the way

Quality photo of Herrenchiemsee - Germany

Herrenchiemsee Germany

If you decide to visit Herrenchiemsee palace, be prepared to be enchanted by the extravagance and decadency seen once in a blue moon. This opulent ... fantasy palace was built by Bavarian King Ludwig II known also as “Bavaria’s fairytale king” on the largest island in the Chiemsee Lake. Construction started in 1878 but unfortunately was not finished by the time King Ludwig died, in 1886. In the extravagant interior visitors may explore twenty state rooms that boast décor of the most exquisite quality. But visitors are mostly overwhelmed when entering the huge Hall of Mirrors which is almost a perfect copy of the original Galerie des Glaces in Versailles. With its luxuriant decorations and furnishings, lights and glittering pendant chandeliers it must be one of the most majestic banqueting halls in the world. The palace also features Ludwig II Museum and the Augustinian canon seminary, both worth visiting. If you get tired of all the lavishness, go to Fraueninsel Island across the water that has a Benedictine convent and is perfect for relaxing strolls. Show more

Quality photo of Bad Ischl - Austria

Bad Ischl Austria

Bad Ischl is a work of art painted by a famous artist in real size. That’s the impression you will have once you visit Bad ... Ischl. And that is probably the impression Emperor Franz Joseph had, given that he visited this town every year for his summer holidays until his death. Emperor presence can still be felt on every step – you’ll see portraits on the buildings, statue and emperor’s photographs in many cafes and restaurants. With its riverside location, colorful and graceful architecture and the beauty of the surrounding landscape, it is very easy to fall in love with this historic spa town. Show more

Quality photo of Hallein Salt Mine - Austria

Hallein Salt Mine Austria

The Hallein salt mine was dug by the ancient Celts over 2500 years ago and it was open for public 450 years ago for the ... first time. But, what’s truly amazing about this mine is that it hasn’t lost any of its magical appeal to this day. Visitors enter the mine on a mine train and after the fun ride they can slide down one of the two miner’s slides to get to the amazing subterranean salt lake where they can take a silent boat ride. The tour of the mine is both fun and educational as visitors learn all about miners’ lives and the conditions they had to endure while working here. Show more

Quality photo of Sankt Wolfgang - Austria

Sankt Wolfgang Austria

The tranquil, forested lake-shore of Lake Wolfgang along with some impressive cultural sites make Sankt Wolfgang a fine destination for a day trip. The charm ... of this little town, recognized by many tourists during the summer season, lies in the breathtaking mountain setting and its pretty painted houses and shops that enclose the narrow cobbled streets. St. Wolfgang was a very famous pilgrimage center, even back in the 12th century, thanks to the Pilgrimage Church that features gorgeous altarpiece dating from 1481. Another great attraction in the town is the Mozarthaus. Show more

Quality photo of Rosenheim - Germany

Rosenheim Germany

Rosenheim will lure every traveler with its breathtaking architecture, cozy cafes, restaurants, top-notch fashion boutiques, and long-established shops.

Show more

Quality photo of Salzburg - Austria

Salzburg Austria

Salzburg is rightfully considered by many as a treasure chest of art and culture.
