Traunstein, Gmunden

(25+ reviews on the web)
Mountain
Traunstein is the highest mountain on the east bank of Traunsee in the district of Gmunden, Austria. As measured by the height above sea level of its summit it is 1691 metres (5548 ft) high. Because of its almost vertical walls ending directly in the lake and secluded, advanced position Traunstein looks like a boulder in the landscape. Its distinctive silhouette is visible from a great distance therefore it is often called a guardian of the Salzkammergut.

  • We were a whole day touring the area by car, starting from Pinsdorf. Charming villages like this one left us amazed.

  • This pretty village is part of the Lakes region in Austria, beautiful ride for allocation of at least 1 day, even when it rains.

  • Very nice strenuous tour. Unfortunately found not the expected mountain Idyll but already tourist flows
