Bad Goisern

Welcome to Bad Goisern on Lake Hallstatt!

The broad, tranquil Goisern valley stretches from Hallstatt in the south to Bad Ischl, the Emperor´s summer retreat, in the north. Bad Goisern, much loved by Hubert von Goisern, is surrounded by gently rolling hills and scenic valleys.

Experience the splendour of this UNESCO World Natural Heritage Region here in the shadows of the Dachstein. Activities on offer include mountainbiking and hiking, and the Dachstein-Salzkammergut holiday resort is the ideal place just to relax and unwind!

Bad Goisern is a holiday haven in both summer and winter. Swimming, skiing, snowshoe hiking or mountain biking are always popular. Discover the perfect combination of sport, nature, culture and tradition right here in the heart of Upper Austria.

We look forward to welcoming you soon to the Goisern valley!

Romantic winter days in Bad Goisern in the heart of a World Cultural and Natural Heritage Region

The winter offers many opportunities for a relaxing stay in one of Upper Austria´s most beautiful regions. The broad and tranquil Goisern valley stretches from Hallstatt lake in the south to Bad Ischl, the Emperor´s holiday retreat and spa town, in the north. Bad Goisern is a hidden gem for visitors in winter!
We are proud to belong to the UNESCO World Cultural and Natural Heritage Region Hallstatt/Dachstein. This status was awarded thanks to 2500 years of surviving local culture and tradition, and also thanks to the outstanding natural beauty of our surroundings. One of the highlights of the winter months is the celebration of Advent in the Salzkammergut and the many events which are organised.

Sledging, horse-drawn sledge rides, curling rinks, ski schools, winter hiking trails, cross country skiing

We have so much winter fun to offer, living in the mountains, but we are also far enough off the beaten track to manage to enjoy the peace and quiet!
