The mountaineering village of Lunz am See is located in the heart of the Mostviertel region and offers numerous hiking routes as well as the only natural lake in Lower Austria, Lake Lunz with its unique lake stage. Every year the Wellenklänge Festival with international artists takes place here and attracts culture enthusiasts to the market town.
With the House of Wilderness, a gateway to the wilderness opened in 2021: The World Heritage Center House of Wilderness is intended to convey to all visitors that the wilderness area Dürrenstein-Lassingtal is unique in its kind in Austria, in the Alps and in Western Europe. Together with areas of the Kalkalpen National Park, large parts of the Wildnsgebiet Dürrenstein-Lassingtal have been awarded recognition as Austria's first and only UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site.
But Lunz am See is also known for its snowy winters and the almost untouched winter magic world. Wonderful natural snow slopes in various degrees of difficulty and a magic carpet for the youngest offer a comprehensive skiing pleasure at the Maiszinken. Pure relaxation can be found off the slopes while snowshoeing or during a winter walk through the sugared forests. Lunz is a perfect vacation destination at any time of the year!
