Indeed, Mariapfarr is known to be one of the sunniest locations in Austria. \u201cA weather station was needed for us to be able to use the title \u2018climate health destination\u2019. We have been the sunniest place in Austria for a long time anyway,\u201d explains Matthias Rauter. \u201cMeanwhile, however, there are many more weather stations all over Austria which also record a high number of sunny days in other towns and cities. But we are still ahead of everyone else.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>More than 300 sunny days per year in Mariapfarr \u2014 guaranteed<\/h2>\n<p>The weather experts of the ZAMG gladly confirm it. \u201cThe SalzburgerLand region of Lungau creates a kind of basin within the Alps with tall mountains all around. Rain and moisture remain with the mountains of the northern and southern Alps, which results in very few clouds and plenty of sunshine. This is why the Lungau region is considered such a sunny area.\u201d Several communities have come together in Mariapfarr and even provide sun warranties. \u201cIf the sun doesn\u2019t shine for at least a single minute during one of your holidays, you either get a voucher for a free overnight stay in the coming summer holiday or a voucher for an immediate day pass to the SAMSUNN spa facility,\u201d Matthias Rauter explains.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_159848\" style=\"width: 1180px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-159848\" class=\"size-large wp-image-159848\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.salzburgerland.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/rs548__n4g9785-lpr-1170x658.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.salzburgerland.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/rs548__n4g9785-lpr-1170x658.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/www.salzburgerland.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/rs548__n4g9785-lpr-1170x658-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1170px) 100vw, 1170px\"><p id=\"caption-attachment-159848\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u00a9 SalzburgerLand Tourismus, ideenwerk werbeagentur gmbh<\/p><\/div>\n<h2>Stimulating climate to excite the airways and the lungs<\/h2>\n<p>An additional feature of the SalzburgerLand region of Lungau is its altitude \u2014 except for the town of Ramingstein, located at 970 metres, all other 14 municipalities are located at an altitude of higher than 1,000 metres. The altitude makes for excellent, clear air and is thus particularly soothing for those with allergies. That the climate in the SalzburgerLand region of Lungau is particularly healthy was proven by an expert hired by the provincial government of Salzburg. The Lungau basin is protected from wind north, west and south. The low air pressure and strong ultra violet light result in deeper breaths which in turn leads to a multiplication of red blood cells during longer stays. The air pressure at an altitude of 1,000 metres also has beneficial effects on many people. Due to the altitude, dust mites and pollen don\u2019t stand a chance, which is why extended stays in Lungau are especially healing for those with allergies.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly positive results have been documented by the AMAS altitude study: It proved that an extend stay at an altitude of 1,500 to 2,500 metres above sea level has demonstrable positive effects on the human body and stabilises blood pressure, alleviates allergies and increases sleep quality. An altitude of 1,500 metres above sea level can be quickly achieved in the UNESCO Bisophere Park Salzburger Lungau. The Prebersee lake alone, suitable for swimming during the summer, is located at 1,527 metres. In general, the title \u201cUNESCO Biosphere Park\u201d can be regarded similarly to a Michelin Star in gastronomy \u2014 it promises and guarantees a first-class nature and relaxation experience.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_159847\" style=\"width: 1180px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-159847\" class=\"size-large wp-image-159847\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.salzburgerland.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/rs321__n4g6794_rzs_hoch-lpr-1170x658.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.salzburgerland.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/rs321__n4g6794_rzs_hoch-lpr-1170x658.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/www.salzburgerland.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/rs321__n4g6794_rzs_hoch-lpr-1170x658-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1170px) 100vw, 1170px\"><p id=\"caption-attachment-159847\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u00a9 SalzburgerLand Tourismus, ideenwerk werbeagentur gmbh<\/p><\/div>\n<h2>Crystal-clear nights and heavenly calm allow for truly relaxing sleep<\/h2>\n<p>At night, dark means dark in the SalzburgerLand region of Lungau. There is little stray light between the Niedere Tauern and the Nock Mountains in comparison to the rest of Austria, which allows for an incredibly clear look at the stars. The Lungau astronomer Dr Eric Thell can confirm this, \u201cThe low amount of stray light together with the elevation ensures that hobby astronomers can make great observations and take phenomenal pictures, whilst guests get to enjoy beautiful starry nights.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Due to the low population density in SalzburgerLand\u2019s Lungau region, light pollution is very low \u2014 constant lighting at night in the towns and at the roads is consciously avoided by the Lungau municipalities.<\/p>\n<p>These factors contribute to truly relaxing sleep \u2014 complete darkness, calm and cooler climates have been proven to be the ideal conditions for excellent sleep. At around 40%, almost half of Austrians suffer from sleep deprivation \u2014 in the Lungau region, on the other hand, folks are sleeping tight. This is also partly due to the cool nights as the meteorologists of the ZAMG confirm. \u201cDue to the altitude and Lungau\u2019s location within a basin, we record some of the coldest temperatures in the country here at night. This very soothing during the hot summer months, particularly for those who cannot cope with the heat very well.\u201d Ramingstein and Tamsweg are among the coldest towns in Austria.<\/p>\n<h2>Sunrise hikes in SalzburgerLand\u2019s Lungau region<\/h2>\n<p>The climate in SalzburgerLand\u2019s Lungau region also leads to a number of botanical peculiarities \u2014 this includes the largest biodiversity of flowers in the Alpine area. The high proportion of coniferous trees, which benefit from the climate here, contributes to the richness in berries, mushrooms and other fungi.<\/p>\n<p>If you can\u2019t stay in bed for long in the morning, despite the ideal sleeping conditions, you may head for a sunrise hike in SalzburgerLand\u2019s Lungau region, which is provided by the holiday region of Salzburg\u2019s Lungau, the Biosphere Park guides or by the hosts of the BE.REAL partner businesses.<\/p>\n<p>Guests at the spa hotel Alm.Gut in St. Margarethen already start at 03:40am. \u201cJust after four, we go from the Karneralm mountain pasture, located at an altitude of 1,900 metres, to the Kleiner K\u00f6nigstuhl mountain,\u201d Irmi L\u00fcftenegger from Alm.Gut tells me. \u201cAfter an hour-long climb, we then wait for the sun at the summit cross, which rises at 05:02am at the earliest.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bettina van der Vaart from the Dreil\u00e4nderwirt pension is a Biosphere Park pro and likes to take her guests on a summit journey onto the Lachriegl summit or the Gumma summit. As part of the BE.REAL programme, she provides 2-day hiking tours including overnight stays at a hut, sunrise gazing and breakfast at a \u201cwonderful nature location\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Those who prefer their sunrises more comfortable can take the Sonnenbahn mountain railway up to the Speiereck mountain at enjoy the sunrise at Peterbauerkreuz spot followed by a sunrise breakfast on the Peterbaueralm mountain pasture.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSonnenaufgangsfahrt\u201d (sunrise ascent), every Wednesday from 2 July 2017; register via the TVB St. Michael (until 3pm the day before).<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_159846\" style=\"width: 1180px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-159846\" class=\"size-large wp-image-159846\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.salzburgerland.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/hinternlahn-5-1170x658.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.salzburgerland.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/hinternlahn-5-1170x658.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/www.salzburgerland.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/hinternlahn-5-1170x658-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1170px) 100vw, 1170px\"><p id=\"caption-attachment-159846\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u00a9 SalzburgerLand Tourismus, ideenwerk werbeagentur gmbh<\/p><\/div>\n<h3>Holiday package \u201cRecharge your batteries on the most beautiful stage in the world\u201d<\/h3>\n<p><strong>3-star hotel pension \u201cH\u00e4userl im Wald\u201d in Mariapfarr <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>7 nights at the hotel pension H\u00e4userl im Wald in Mariapfarr,<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Austria\u2019s sunniest spot<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cosy double room with plenty of bright spruce wood, sun and light, balcony with view of Lungau\u2019s mountain world<\/li>\n<li>Breakfast buffet and 4-course menu with salad buffet in the evening<\/li>\n<li>Crystal-clear mountain water energised by the \u201cGrander Technology\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Wellness area with Finnish sauna, steam bath, infrared cabin, panorama relaxation room and garden<\/li>\n<li>Digital detox: safekeeping of mobile phone and laptop in the hotel safe (on request)<\/li>\n<li>Guided wilderness and forest exploration tour with the hosts<\/li>\n<li>Lungau picnic at the Longa river with regional products<\/li>\n<li>1 energising 30-minute massage<\/li>\n<li>2 guided outdoor yoga experiences by the calmly running water of the Longa river<\/li>\n<li>Tips from the hosts for day trips with the in-house electric bicycle around one of the pristine valleys<\/li>\n<li>Organisation of a fishing license for the Longa river \u2014 the catch will be prepared in the evening (on request)<\/li>\n<li>Lungau card for the use of mountain railways, trip destinations, sights, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>From \u20ac510 per person\/DR<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Book between 01.06. \u2013 08.10.2017<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When Matthias Rauter steps in front of his centuries-old ancestral farmhouse early in the morning, he first gazes up into the sky: \u201cWhat\u2019s the weather going to be like?\u201d As a farmer, this is a question that matters a lot to him, but it also interests him personally as well as his guests.
