 **Enjoy an impressive boat trip on Lake Hallstatt.**

**A Tradition of Boating**
--------------------------

**[Lake Hallstatt](https://dachstein.salzkammergut.at/welterberegion/hallstaettersee.html)** serves as the central hub connecting the **Dachstein municipalities** of **[Hallstatt](https://dachstein.salzkammergut.at/welterberegion/hallstatt.html)**, **[Obertraun](https://dachstein.salzkammergut.at/welterberegion/obertraun.html)**, **[Bad Goisern](https://dachstein.salzkammergut.at/welterberegion/bad-goisern.html)**, and **[Gosau](https://dachstein.salzkammergut.at/welterberegion/gosau.html)**, and boating has always played a vital role as a mode of transportation. But it’s also a treat for those who appreciate the finer things in life, because only from the lake do you have a unique view of the World Heritage site and the surrounding mountains of the **[ Dachstein Salzkammergut](https://dachstein.salzkammergut.at/)** region.

**Boat Travel on Lake Hallstatt Since 1862**
--------------------------------------------

Since the train station in Hallstatt is located on the other side of the lake, there is a scheduled ferry service from **the Hallstatt train station to Hallstatt** Markt. The ferry “Stephanie” runs regularly throughout the year to connect with the trains. The Hallstatt-Markt to the train station route has been in operation since 1881 and remains the only boat service on an Austrian lake that continues to operate even during the winter months.

Hallstättersee **Schifffahrt Hemetsberger GmbH**, owned by the Hemetsberger family since the fall of 1967, operates a fleet of four ships.

**Various sightseeing cruises are offered:**

- Boat transfer to the Hallstatt train station (or to the East Shore Hiking Trail) year-round
- Boat tours via Obertraun—duration approx. 50 minutes (Panorama Tour SOUTH)—only through fall
- NORTH round-trip cruises from July 18 to August 16 from downtown Hallstatt to Untersee and Steeg and back
- Special trips available year-round by advance reservation
