🇦🇹 St Gilgen is a small village in Austria situated at beautiful Wolfgangsee. In this Austria travel walking tour I show you where you can spend the best vacation in Austria or go for the best day tour in Austria. My Austria travel vlog covers a St Gilgen as one of the things to do in Salzburg and the Salzkammergut. So if you are wondering where to go in Austria and what are the best places in Austria, this Austria travel diary video will provide ideas for your next vacation in Austria. The Mozart Town St. Gilgen is close to St Wolfgang, Hallstatt and Salzburg and can easily be covered in an Austria day trip. It's the best village in Austria if you want to spend a relaxed vacation with a view of a beautiful lake, the Wolfgangsee. This Austria travel vlog and Austria travel 4k video will show you impressions of the best summer in Austria as I was lucky with the beautiful weather.
Sankt Gilgen is situated in the north-western shore of the lake Wolfgangsee, close to Strobl and to the Upper Austrian municipality of St. Wolfgang. It has 3,784 inhabitants, lies 545 metres above sea level and covers an area of 98.67 square kilometres. St. Gilgen is a well-known travel destination. Boats from St. Gilgen sail around the Wolfgangsee, providing transport and views of the surrounding mountains. The hermitage of the original St. Gilgen may be seen, behind a chapel, in the Falkenstein cliffs west of St. Wolfgang and east of Fürberg.
In 2005 St. Gilgen was promoted as the "Mozart Village" by the Wolfgangsee Tourist Board. Although Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart never visited St. Gilgen (as he had intended to), his grandfather worked in the town, his mother was born in St. Gilgen, and his sister Nannerl moved there after her marriage. The village now boasts a first-class international school, the St. Gilgen International School.
The Salzkammergut (or Salzburger Land) is a particularly attractive region to visit in Austria. So plan to do a travel walking tour in the most beautiful village in Austria, or hike the Alpine mountains, or swim in beautiful lakes during your next Austria vacation ('Österreich Urlaub' in German). There are so many things to do in Salzburg and the surrounding Salzkammergut region that you don't want to miss.
