With its many secluded coves and shingle beaches, the beautiful Salzkammergut village of Fuschl on the lake shore, is an unspoilt paradise just waiting to be discovered. The village lies in the heart of a nature reserve and is a haven of calm and tranquillity, yet there is plenty to keep you amused. Enjoy a swim in the sparkling, clear water of Lake Fuschl, sit on the lakeside promenade and watch the world go by, or get active and row across the lake or cycle along the cool, pine-clad shore. At night the friendly bars and cafés offer a warm welcome, as the strains of traditional zither music float across the waters.
