Gmunden: Guided Walking Tour｜Austria

Begin your journey in Gmunden, the gateway to the Salzkammergut region. Discover a place with thousands of years of history, home to salt mines, stunning lakes, and mountain landscapes.

Since the construction of the railway in the 19th century, it's not just been aristocratic guests who recognized the value of traveling here. But the world-famous town Hallstatt isn't the only place worth seeing. Even here in Gmunden, you can discover a magnificent lake panorama and the beautiful atmosphere of a summer retreat town. In and around the old town, you'll find ancient alleys, charming courtyards, traditional businesses, and markets.

Find out what a Gmunden fountain has to do with a family crypt at Vienna's Central Cemetery, which species of fish can only be found here in Lake Traunsee, how many swans live around here and what my grandmother had to say about the legends surrounding Lake Traunsee and the mountains!

We will start our tour at the Museumsplatz next to the Traun bridge and make our way through the old town until we end up in the pretty Kurpark close to some coffee houses where you can enjoy some dessert after the tour!
