Hohenwerfen adventure castle

Hohenwerfen adventure castle

Just 63 kilometres from the hotel, the 900-year-old Hohenwerfen Fortress offers visitors an unforgettable experience. In addition to castle tours and exhibitions such as "Mythos Jackl - Hexen & Zauberer in Salzburg" and "Agents die alone", there is also a castle tavern and a knight's shop. Particularly impressive are the daily falcon flight demonstrations in the historic Landesfalkenhof, which also houses Austria's first falconry museum with an educational trail for birds of prey.

Berchtesgadener Land and Königsee

The picturesque Königssee is located in the idyllic national park amidst impressive natural scenery. The special feature of Bavaria's most famous mountain lake is that it can only be visited by boat.

  • 1. stop St. Bartholomä: The world-famous baroque pilgrimage church and freshly smoked fish from the fisherman next door are well worth a visit.
  • 2. stop Salet: Only served from Easter to mid-October - both are starting points for beautiful hikes.

Eisriesenwelt Werfen

Enter and be amazed - the Eisriesenwelt in Werfen, 72 km away, is not one of Salzburg's most popular attractions for nothing. The cave labyrinth with its imposing dynamic ice is not only spectacular to look at, but also pleasantly cool in summer.  Nothing for you? Our team at hotel Zimmerbräu will be happy to help you plan your excursion!
