The Wolfgangsee Advent stands for authentic traditions and the feeling of home. It is characterised by its unique location between the mountains of the Salzkammergut and directly on the lakeshore. With the Wolfgangsee boat trip, visitors have the opportunity to travel between the idyllic villages of St. Gilgen, Strobl and St. Wolfgang and enjoy the magic of the Advent season. The picturesque villages provide a wonderful backdrop for the Advent market, which invites you to linger and enjoy the lovingly decorated wooden huts and twinkling lights.
Take the Schafbergbahn and the Zwölferhorn cable car up to Wolfgangsee's local mountains: the illuminated Advent train of the Schafbergbahn takes visitors along the "Three Kings Adventure Trail" to the Schafbergalm. Along the way, you can spot the life-size, hand-carved nativity figures. Outside on the water floats the 16-metre peace lantern. It has long since become a symbol of Advent on Lake Wolfgang. It attracts marvelling glances from the boats and from the shore. Atmospheric brass bands parade through the Advent markets every day from 5 pm. The 1000-year history of Lake Wolfgangsee is palpable and invites you to discover it.
