[2025 Sankt Gilgen Attraction] Travel Guide for Schafbergspitze (Updated May)

This time, I went to Schafberg Mountain in Austria for a family trip. It may be an unfamiliar place even to those who have been to Austria, but this is said to be the filming location for the famous Sound of Music. I took the red train and slowly went up while enjoying the scenery. It seems that Europe has outstanding natural scenery. Here, I was able to run like Heidi and lie down in the field, and had a really good healing time. It is a place I recommend to those who are going to Austria. #Austria #Schafberg

🇦🇹Highly recommended of the most recommended travel destinations 💚Schafberg💚 If you are traveling to Salzburg, Austria, I definitely recommend going to Schafberg! I also took a day off from my trip to Salzburg to Schafberg. I played in Salzburg again in the eveningㅎㅎㅎ I went from Salzburg to Schafburg by changing from a bus to a cruise ship! The colors of the river I saw from the cruise ship were so beautiful... And the view from the top of Schafberg by taking the mountain train was so picturesque that it was amazing and touching... Schafberg, where you can see and feel such beautiful nature, is the best... #AustriaTravel #LifeTravelDestination #WithNature #SalzburgTravel #Schafberg #LifeShotPlace #2019Travel #NextTimeHere #Austria #Nature #ViewRestaurant

St. Wolfgang, also located in the Austrian Lake District, is not as familiar as Hallstatt in the country. Although it is located near Hallstatt, there is no noisy and crowded Hallstatt. More peace and leisure. St. Wolfgang is not big, the main attraction is the pilgrimage church, White Horse Hotel, Shaf Mountain, and you can walk around the town on foot. Although the town is not big, the scenery is very good. The lake and mountains of the movie "The Sound of Music" is the scene. If you want to appreciate the beauty of St. Wolfgangsee, you must take the steam train to the top of Shaf Mountain, a line that has been in operation since 1893 and is still in the market today. Little train operation time

The camera can't capture the beauty that the naked eye sees. The scenery of the lake area is very weather-dependent, so be sure to check the weather forecast before you go. You can visit Lake Gosau in the morning and then head to Schafberg in St. Wolfgang in the afternoon. You can buy a round-trip ticket for the mountain train in advance on the official website. After the train reaches the top of the mountain, get off the train and climb up the right-hand side to find the cross for a selfie.

The most beautiful cliff in Europe, highly recommended! 🕑 Recommended: 2–3 days; 1 day relaxing in the hotel + 1 day walking or boating around the lake + 1 day exploring the mountain 🚗 Transportation: Besides driving, you can also take a train from Vienna (3+ hrs) or Salzburg (1+ hr). 🚂 Attractions: The main attraction is Schafberg, which is about 1,800 m above sea level. You can take the classic steam train to the top in about 30 minutes, or hike up the mountain. You can also take the train halfway up the mountain and get off at one of the 2–3 stations along the way. Buy a round-trip ticket with a 3–4 hour interval. 🌄 SchafbergBahn Built in 1893, it is still the steepest cog railway in Austria! This industrial marvel defies gravity with a maximum slope of 24%, and the wisdom of the steam age is forever engraved on the cliffs of the Alps. When the laughter of Maria and the children in The Sound of Music crosses the screen, this legendary railway becomes the most moving cultural landmark in the Salzkammergut Lake District. In the movie The Sound of Music, Maria takes the children on this train to the top of the mountain. 🚆 Riding this "veteran cog railway" is both relaxing and enjoyable! You can enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way, and have an unprecedented mountain experience! When the train passes through the Donalram Ridge at a graceful speed of 28 km/h, hold your camera tight: ahead, 11 sapphire-like lakes are looming in the sea of clouds. 📸 🏞 In 35 minutes, you can reach the top of the 1,783 m mountain. Standing at the highest point of the "Alpine Observation Deck," you can enjoy a 180-degree panoramic view: the snow-capped peaks of the Hohe Tauern Mountains are like the thrones of the gods, the glaciers of the Grossglockner reflect the light of diamonds, and the Wolfgangsee and Mondsee meander into poetry. At dusk, the twilight covers the entire lake district with a golden veil. Stay at the oldest hotel in Austria, and when the morning light penetrates the sea of clouds and illuminates the top of the mountain, you can enjoy the sunrise ceremony of the entire Alps. It's amazing! 😍 🌄 Choose a seat on the right side of the train, so you don't miss the stunning view of Lake St. Gilgen! 🏨 Don't forget that there is an old Austrian mountain hotel here! Spend the night at 1,783 m, and enjoy the beautiful sunset and sunrise! 🌅🌄 🍲 Food: There are 3 restaurants on the top of Schafberg, and they are all good. You can have a bowl of soup and coffee. In St. Wolfgang, there are two recommended restaurants: a Hungarian restaurant called Dorf-Alm, and a Spanish restaurant called Genussschmied.

By exploring the world from a diverse perspective, you’ll also embrace new insights. This beautiful vision is within reach thanks to the five great treasures of the city of Salzburg and the Salzkammergut region. The journey to the five treasures will unfold a series of stunning panoramic views for you, sincerely inviting you to temporarily escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life and step into a feast for the soul. Here, what you see is the sedimentation of history, and ultra-modern technology is cleverly hidden behind the scenes, because in this world, the magic of the past is the most moving call, which makes every journey an encounter across time and space. On the occasion of the festive season, the five treasures are also bathed in brilliant glory. 🚂 Part 1. Schafberg Train (P1-P4) If there is such a thing as love at first sight in this world, it might be love at first sight for the SchafbergBahn. The dazzling red carriage slowly travels through the rugged and winding alpine meadows full of flowers. Not to mention the beautiful scenery it is in, it is a landscape in itself. Take the Schafberg Train and slowly climb to the top of the mountain at an altitude of 1,783 meters. The entire journey takes only 35 minutes. However, faced with the beautiful scenery along this steepest cog railway in Austria, you may feel that you haven't had enough when you reach the end. During this journey, every meter of ascent and every winding turn seemed to bring us into a whole new perspective. When arriving at the top of the mountain, passengers will see 11 lakes with their own characteristics, like shining pearls lost in the world. On a clear day, the view stretches endlessly, with the majestic Hohe Tauern and Grossglockner mountains looming before your eyes. 🚢 Part 2. Cruise on Lake Wolfgang (P5-P8) As timeless as the Schafberg Railway is the boat trip on Lake Wolfgang (Wolfgangsee Schifffahrt). The gentle waves caressing the water surface and the fresh breeze blowing towards you make people intoxicated. Since the 19th century, the Schafberg Railway and Lake Wolfgang boat trips have left an indelible mark on this famous holiday paradise, and Emperor Franz Joseph and Empress Elisabeth (Sissi) also stayed in the Salzkammergut during their summer vacations. As Austria's leading inland passenger fleet, this journey has seven carefully designed stops with different styles, including picturesque Strobl, historic St. Wolfgang, peaceful and tranquil St. Gilgen, and many other natural and cultural treasures. During the journey, you will see classic villas on the shore, telling stories of the past in an elegant manner; the lake water is rippling, changing from green to blue, and you can feel the purity and tranquility from nature; plus the melodious bells at noon, echoing between the valleys like the sound of nature. The majestic Zwölferhorn and the beautiful Schafberg from afar weave together a pure and indescribable "Salzkammergut feeling" - a unique experience that combines natural beauty, historical culture and spiritual home. 🚠 Part 3. Salzburg Fortress Cable Car (P9-P12) Hohensalzburg Fortress is one of the most magnificent castle complexes in existence, with its roots dating back to the 11th century. This castle is not only Salzburg's dazzling business card, but also the dream of countless travelers. Whether it is a winter wonderland covered in snow or a summer scenery full of greenery, the Hohensalzburg Fortress attracts visitors from all over the world with its unique charm. Taking the convenient and comfortable Festungsbahn is undoubtedly the best way to explore this historic fortress. The locals never call it "castle", which gives the Salzburg Fortress a special kind of intimacy and mystery. It is worth mentioning that the Fortress Cable Car Railway is not only the oldest transportation route in Austria, but also an aerial bridge connecting the old town of Salzburg and the fortress. It's short but steep, and has been efficiently and safely transporting travelers to historic high points since 1892. The 2011 modernization cost approximately 4 million euros and introduced new carriages and electrical systems to make the journey smoother and more pleasant. The cable car runs every 10 minutes and can carry up to 55 passengers per trip. It departs from the valley station in the center of the old town (Festungsgasse 4) and takes you to the top station at an altitude of 536 meters in a blink of an eye. During the journey, you can see the city's treasures such as Salzburg Cathedral. When you reach the top of the mountain, you will see dark green mountains and rolling sea of ​​clouds. The shock and reverie will linger in your heart for a long time. 🌄 Part 4. Monk Mountain Cable Car (P13-P16) Take the Mönchsberg Aufzug cable car and you will reach the top of the Mönchsberg Mountain at an altitude of 485 meters, which is the heart of the charming city of Salzburg, in just 30 seconds. You can immerse yourself in the avant-garde art atmosphere of the Salzburg Museum of Modern Art, stroll through the picturesque natural scenery, or savor delicious food at the renowned m32 restaurant. Monk Mountain, a paradise favored by tourists and local residents, is instantly transformed into a green haven away from the hustle and bustle through a fast and comfortable cable car journey. Lush meadows, dense forests, ancient fortifications and castle ruins contrast with the bustling and noisy Mozart City at the foot of the mountain, yet they are intertwined with the city landscape during walking exploration. The splendid views of the old town, such as Salzburg Cathedral and Getreidegasse, are even more spectacular from the top of the hill. The cable car starts at Gstättengasse 13 in Salzburg. Each trip can accommodate 17 passengers, who share a pleasant journey in a 60-meter-long cabin. Dogs on leashes are allowed free of charge. 🐳 Part 5. Water Mirror Museum (P17-P19) Under the azure sky above the Baroque roofs of Salzburg, the multimedia exhibition "WasserSpiegel" (Water Mirror) leads visitors to explore the mysteries of water treatment. The exhibition is cleverly integrated into the elevated water tank on the top of the Mönchberg, which has a huge capacity of 25,000 cubic meters and silently nourishes the thousands of residents of Salzburg. The sometimes whimsical, sometimes profound exhibits gradually reveal the mysteries of Salzburg's water supply system. The audio guide is free and included in your ticket, and for professionals, exclusive guided tours are available on request. The "Water Mirror" exhibition uses an entertaining and educational approach to allow children to experience the charm and magic of water in the interactive experience area, the fantasy world of the technical exhibition, and the water tasting session. Whether it is summer or winter, if the weather is bad, the museum maintains a comfortable constant temperature of 12 degrees Celsius, making people forget the wind, frost, rain, snow or scorching sun outside. Therefore, no matter what season it is, visitors please remember to bring warm clothes. Anyone who is interested in water culture should not miss the "Water Mirror" Museum. 💡 Part 6. Digital Pocket Guide The 5treasures-journey website is an electronic pocket guide with the core concept of "rediscovering the ancient charm". It is equipped with an audio guide, rich historical allusions and anecdotes, and 360-degree panoramic images. The guide is completely free for all visitors and can be explored online via smartphone app, tablet or PC. Salzburg, Salzburger Land

#HongKongFlightEvent #2024WishEvent #AustriaTravel #Austria #St.Gilgen #Schafberg #SalzkammergutTravel Hello, this is Tteonaara :) Do you only go to Vienna and Hallstatt for your Austrian travel? Austria is a really attractive country, and among them, how about a trip to Salzkammergut that is good to travel with Hallstatt? I'll also recommend the Austrian Schafberg mountain train. If you take the mountain train, you go up after passing through two stations, and the view of St. Wolfgang from the mountain train is really beautiful. It's a travel destination that was also introduced on the entertainment show Grandpa Over Flowers, so I'll end the article by recommending it☺️

Located in the picturesque town of St. Wolgang, Schaffberg is 1,783 meters above sea level, giving you a 360-degree view of more than 100 majestic peaks in the Alps and the seven famous lakes in Austria. In the famous movie "The Sound of Music", this is where Maria sings in the opening scene. It is also where she takes her seven children up the mountain on a small train, plays the guitar on the lawn🎸, and teaches the children to sing the beautiful "Doremi" 》, enjoy the special scene of happiness and freedom. Schaffberg can be said to be a condensation of the lakes and mountains in the Alps. You only need to spend an hour or two wandering on the top of the mountain, taking photos, or sitting on the grass to admire the lakes shining like sapphire on this land, and you will be able to enjoy the rare scenery. A wonderful experience in words. ✨📸💙 Tip time: 1️⃣ Want to take the Schaffberg train to the top? First, search online for "Schafberg Bahn". This is the starting point of the small train and there is a parking lot nearby for you to use. 2️⃣ The small train only runs from April 29th to November 1st every year, and will be suspended in winter. So, please avoid winter time! 3️⃣ The one-way fare of the small train is 33.6 euros, while the round-trip fare is 47.6 euros. When purchasing a round-trip ticket, be sure to inform your return time. If you just want to go to the mountains and take photos, an hour is enough. If you want to wander around a bit longer and take a coffee break at the cafe on the top of the mountain, plan at least two to three hours. Here’s a tip, if you’re not sure how long you’ll be on the mountain, buy a return ticket at a longer interval. If you finish shopping in advance, as long as there is space on the return train, the flight attendant will help you modify the time and you can get on the train directly. 4️⃣ There are two stops on the small train going up the mountain. The middle station is for tourists to get off and hike to the top. If you don’t want to hike, please continue to the terminal station and then get off. 5️⃣ As a reminder, please sit on the left side when going up the mountain, because the scenery on the left is more magnificent and beautiful! 🌟🚂🏞️💙

St.Wolfgang: I like it very much. It is a destination that Thai people do not often come to because most people only come to Salzburg and then cross over to Hallstatt. But along the way, there are St.Wolfgang & Bad Ischl & Gosau which are very beautiful but Thai people tend to skip it. I highly recommend coming to this one. It is very beautiful. The atmosphere is good. There are no tour groups. There are only locals bringing their children to walk, picnic or climb mountains. But actually, just taking the train up to St.Gilgen (the station is called Schafbergspitzr) and sitting here is already very enjoyable. The view is natural, similar to Brienz Rothorn in Switzerland. But this one is less touristy, which I really like. You should come here. It is easy to travel. Just take the bus yourself. #Stwolfgang#Schafbergspitze #austria #salzburg #hallstatt #Summer

Schafberg is a mountain in the Austrian state of Salzburg. Situated within the Salzkammergut Mountains range of the Northern Limestone Alps, the Schafberg rises 1,783m from the shore of Wolfgangsee Lake. To get to the top, you have to take an amazing steep cogwheel ride. There is a lovely restaurant at the top where you can sit down at the balcony for a meal or drinks and take in all the amazing breathtaking views of the gorgeous Austrian alps. There are no atm or credit card machines at Scharfberg so be sure to bring enough cash for the restaurant.

#Hiking Schafberg is a mountain in Salzburg, Austria. It is 1,783 m (5,850 ft) high. Located in the Salzkammergut mountain range of the Northern Limestone Alps, Schafberg rises on the shores of Lake Wolfgang.

Xiafu Mountain | The Secret in the Mist At the beginning of October, on the Xiafu Mountain, you need to spell the character. Looking at the weather forecast, it was not hesitant to choose the train that went up the mountain at 9:45. Everything looks good. Tips: The top two-thirds of the view on the left side of the mountain is very good, and the third-third of the view on the right side is good. So don't worry about tangling, just go down the mountain and sit on different sides. The first third of the scenery is good, thinking that you should be able to see the lake today. But by two-thirds of the time, the train was like a fog, and nothing could be seen. The huge loss in the heart is self-evident. When I reached the top of the mountain, the entire Xiafu Mountain was surrounded by mist, and nothing could be seen. As the crowd moves toward the viewpoint, although it is fog, but it is still a glance. At this time, there was a gust of wind. In the changing clouds, the clouds slowly spread out, revealing a small lake with a big sun. All things happen only within five minutes. Great joy after the great sadness!
