Summer Vacation in Bad Hofgastein – A Fantastic Summer Vacation in Austria for All Ages!

ACTIVITIES IN BAD GASTEIN

Hiking

Bad Gastein is a true hiker’s paradise, catering to seasoned enthusiasts and families with children alike. The mountains and beautiful landscapes offer well-marked trails leading to stunning waterfalls, sunny alpine meadows, and charming mountain huts serving local delicacies.
Our favorite hiking spots include:

Fulseck
Schlossalm
Stubnerkogel
Graukogel

For a shorter hike, take a lift to the mountaintops and enjoy panoramic views of the Gastein Valley from 2,000 meters above sea level.

Cycling

Feel the wind in your hair as you ascend mountain trails by bike. Once you reach the summit, you’ll be rewarded with breathtaking views of the valley from over 2,000 meters high. Explore Bad Gastein and the surrounding area on a mountain bike along marked trails varying in length, gradient, and difficulty. For guided cycling adventures or training, join group tours or rent a bike on-site for an unforgettable ride through the valley.

Climbing

For a more challenging activity, try rock climbing. Near Schlossalm in neighboring Bad Hofgastein, test your coordination skills on climbing routes with varying levels of difficulty. Alternatively, start with professional training at the climbing garden in Bad Gastein before venturing onto the climbing trails independently.

Golf

Situated in Hohe Tauern National Park, Golfclub Gastein offers an 18-hole course with stunning mountain views. For bad weather days, the indoor golf center allows you to refine your skills using video analysis in the Creative Golf 3D Simulator. Families can also enjoy classic mini-golf for a fun and relaxed experience.

Wellness

Bad Gastein’s status as a historic spa town ensures world-class wellness experiences. The famous healing springs provide the perfect way to complement an active holiday. Don’t miss Felsentherme in Bad Gastein, offering serene pools and saunas in a spectacular mountain setting. Alternatively, visit Alpentherme in nearby Bad Hofgastein for a luxurious wellness retreat featuring thermal waters with mineral benefits.
