Reach for the stars, wish for the very blue in the sky, and experience a vacation that couldn't possibly be more "spheric":
An atmosphere of total wellbeing, an alpine sports sphere filled with athletic challenges, and a heavenly sphere for private moments of total bliss. This is the Lungau region with its 15 communities in the sunny south of Salzburg.
Barely one hour's drive from Salzburg City, you will discover the Lungau high basin with an average elevation of 1,000 meters above sea level, your base camp for an active, outdoors vacation:
Cultural highlights, such as Mauterndorf Castle, the Parish, Pilgrimage & Silent Night Museum, St. Leonhard's pilgrimage church and an array of living traditions, such as parades with a giant Samson figure, the Prangstangen processions and the "Water Shoot" on lake Prebersee, are all definitely must-sees.

The Lungauer Eachtling (potato) is the reason why Lungau has enjoyed the distinction of being added to the list of Austria's "Genussregionen".
The restaurants and eateries of Lungau guarantee memorable culinary experiences. Divided into culinary pathways for gourmets, sweet-tooths, beer and schnapps aficionados, cheese freaks, meat eaters and hut lovers, the Via Culinaria is home to the best addresses for wining and dining, enjoyment and good company.
