Time seems to pass more slowly in SalzburgerLand’s Lungau region. Hospitality is valued highly and here, one still strives for the good life. Perhaps it is due to the area’s special geographic location south of the Tauern mountain range that the old traditions could survive and coexist with the creativity and the fresh ideas of its inhabitants. Whether food, customs or traditional natural medicine: the Lungau residents and their close relationship to the natural world make for some very special holiday experiences. SalzburgerLand’s Lungau region has been a UNESCO Biosphere Park since 2012 — a seal of quality that can be compared to the Michelin Stars in gastronomy in terms of its significance.
