South of the main alpine ridge, tucked between the Radstädter Tauern, the Niedere Tauern and the Nockberge, lies the Lungau, the southernmost district of the state of Salzburg. This natural isolation has preserved a particularly unspoiled culture and landscape over centuries.

Mountain Villages With Living Tradition

In the Lungau's villages, marked by distinctive church spires and traditional farmhouse architecture, rural customs are still actively kept alive today, from traditional crafts to seasonal festivals throughout the year. This connection to its roots makes the Lungau one of Austria's most authentic regions.

Alpine Pastures, Mountains, Winter Snow

As part of the Salzburg Sonnenskiarea Katschberg-Aineck, the Lungau offers excellent conditions for winter sports, while in summer its wide alpine pastures and striking peaks invite long hikes. The Lungau's clear, unspoiled landscape remains pleasantly free of mass tourism.
