A summer holiday full of adventure
a wide range of activities in Wagrain, near Flachau
The Tappenkarsee Lake is a special natural gem in the holiday region of Wagrain-Kleinarl in Salzburger Land. From the Jägersee Lake the hiking trail leads up to the grand mountain lake, which together with the rock faces and steep alpine meadows offers a unique sight. Whilst you savour the sun's rays on your face by the lake, you can contemplate what you want to do tomorrow. There's certainly plenty of choice on your holiday in Wagrain: pedal up to the Edelweiss-Alm on your mountain bike, explore Wagraini’s Grafenberg with the whole family or search and find a surge of adrenalin on the ropes course. A visit to the Soccer Park, which is just 5 walk from the Landhaus Maurer, is the ideal activity to round off your day's holiday here in Salzburger Land. The house owner Gernot Maurer is happy to show mountain enthusiasts the most beautiful spots in the region on a guided hike.
