The jewel in the crown of the Austrian lakes, Hallstatt is a waterside village surrounded by staggering mountain scenery. Find fairytale charm and Gothic churches in its centre, or head below the surface for an exploration of its fascinating salt mines and subterranean lake.
With towering peaks and pastel coloured houses perched precariously on the edge of a pristine lake, Hallstatt's landscape borders on the realms of fantasy. Explore its narrow lanes of 16th century houses, drop in to the churches, or just sit back, relax and soak up the atmosphere. It's so idyllic that they've even built a replica of the village in China.
