Summers in the Lungau Biosphere Park
In the summer, visitors lace up their hiking boots to enjoy the UNESCO Salzburg Lungau Biosphere Park. Here you can discover mountain peaks, idyllic mountain lakes, and Alpine pastures in places such as the Riedingtal Zederhaus Nature Park, the Weißpriach valley, or the Schladminger Tauern Mountains. Those who would rather feel the wind on their faces can jump on a bicycle, mountain bike, or pedelec. There are also many opportunities for climbing, paragliding, horseback riding, and golfing.
