Steinbach am Attersee: Seefeld
Seefeld straddles the broad Seefeld Plateau in Tyrol, and its open position between the Karwendel and Wetterstein ranges has shaped it into an established Alpine resort. The compact centre combines Tyrolean houses, hotels and the parish church of St Oswald, while forested slopes and managed meadows rise immediately beyond the settlement. Seefeld hosted Nordic events during the 1964 and 1976 Winter Olympics in Innsbruck, and later staged the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships in 1985 and 2019. The resort remains focused on cross-country skiing, alpine skiing and walking, with the plateau giving the town a more open character than many narrow Alpine valleys.

Set along the eastern shore of Lake Attersee, Steinbach am Attersee is a place whose character is shaped by the water and the limestone slopes of the Höllengebirge range. Attersee is Austria’s largest lake lying wholly within the country, and its broad surface has made this part of Upper Austria a longstanding summer retreat. The village is closely associated with Gustav Mahler, who spent several summers here between 1893 and 1896; his preserved composing hut recalls the period in which he worked on major orchestral music. Lakeside paths, swimming areas and mountain routes place daily life close to the Salzkammergut outdoors. Discover further points of interest through webcams located across Upper Austria.

Formed around the Danube and Enns corridors, Upper Austria developed into one of Austria’s nine federal states. Linz, its capital on the Danube, combines a major industrial tradition with cultural institutions including the Ars Electronica Center. North of the river, the Mühlviertel rolls towards the Czech border; southward, the terrain rises into the Alpine foothills and the lake country of the Salzkammergut. Hallstatt, beside Hallstätter See, is among the region’s best-known historic settlements and lends its name to the Hallstatt period of early Iron Age Europe.

Austria stretches from the Bohemian Massif along its northern edge to the Carnic Alps on the Italian border, encompassing high Alpine ranges and the Danube lowlands. The Danube links cities including Linz and Vienna, while the Grossglockner, at 3,798 metres, is the country’s highest mountain. Vienna developed for centuries as the seat of the Habsburg court, leaving imperial architecture around the Hofburg and Schönbrunn Palace. Salzburg is closely associated with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, who was born there in 1756. Alpine Tyrol, wine-growing areas east of Vienna and the lakes of Salzkammergut add markedly different regional identities.
