Your drive will continue to the picturesque town of St. Gilgen at Lake Wolfgang where Mozart's mother was born. Depending on the season’s schedule you may take a boat cruise across the lake to the famous town of St. Wolfgang. (boat cruise is not included in the tour price)
Enjoy the breath-taking view during your 50 minute ride over the crystal-clear Lake Wolfgang. The historic pilgrim town of St. Wolfgang with its outstanding location surrounded by that amazing lake, forests and specular mountain scenery dates back more than 1.000 years! Explore the town and visit the Catholic Church with its doubled winged Gothic altar by Michael Pacher from the late 15th century. Take a coffee break at the famous hotel "White Horse Inn" right at lake St Wolfgang enjoying the spectacular scenery. On your return trip we pass Lake Mondsee another beautiful holiday destination close to the city of Salzburg.
