Advent as it used to be: Lake Wolfgangsee Advent

Since 2003, the Lake Wolfgangsee Advent has been delighting visitors young and old with passionately designed markets, extraordinary decorations and an enchantingly festive atmosphere. For its 20th anniversary, once again, the Lake Wolfgangsee Advent in the three villages of St. Gilgen, St. Wolfgang and Strobl heralds the festive Advent season.

The Lake Wolfgangsee Boat Service takes its passengers to all three Christmas markets, and on the Zwölferhorn and Schafberg mountains visitors can relish exceptionally beautiful mountain experiences.
