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.

    I enjoyed the peace and friendliness of this city. Beauty in its architecture. Neo-Gothic church with cemetery in land attached. Transport punctual and clean. Surrounded by forests and meadows. That silence is not paid with money.

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