Hotel Seerose

The renovated mill is very popular for the locals and tourists alike. See breadmaking and other insightful demonstrations, perfect for all ages. You will also pass the Kneipp water gardens by the stream, as well as the nearby herbal gardens. Why not try some tasty freshly made bakery products.

Ride your way to the nearby lakes, Mondsee and Wolfgangsee. Or, stay put at Fuschlsee where you can explore the simple circular route or extended routes covering Feldberg or Filbling, the surrounding mountains. With lots of trails, paths, inclines, declines and scenic routes, you can go on a new journey every day.

Take a tour of the lake by foot, as the circular walk takes around three hours to complete (not including lunch stops at a mountain hut along the way or all the photo stops you'll make on route). You will see the beautiful lake from all points of view. Or, try something harder like the Ellmaustein five-kilometre hike, where you can see the Fuschlsee from the spectacular viewpoint above.

Make your way to Golfclub Waldhof, and play a round of golf in the Salzkammergut. With exceptional views of Lake Fuschl, the environment on the Waldhof Alm, just 1.5 kilometres from Fuschl am See, is stunning. With spacious greens and traditional huts surrounding the course, you are in for a morning of golfing bliss.

Pick up a racket and ball, it's time for a round of tennis. There's two tennis courts in Fuschl am See which tend to have early opening times and late closing times, perfect for a game in the cooler parts of the day (racquets and balls can be hired locally for around €10 per hour).

In Fuchal am See, relax and unwind at the Fuschlseebad lido and wellness centre. Here you can release all your everyday stresses in the bio sauna that is heated to temperatures between 40° and 60° Celsius, or the Finnish sauna that's heated between 85° and 88° Celsius. There is also a steam sauna, infrared cabin and plunge pool - great for after a lake swim from its own beach.

Slide your way into the lake on the flume, or paddle your feet on the lakeside beach. More of a swimming pool fan? Then the heated outdoor pool gives the same views as the lake, but in your own comfort. There is also a large sun-bathing lawn, ideal for supervising the children or enjoying a sweet treat from the café.

Kids can release their energy in the public playgrounds of Fuschl am See. Let the little ones climb over the sinking shipwreck, play in the sand and bounce on the trampoline. Go on a mission to find the gnomes of the Seppenhölzel, starting at Ruming hill, past the Kneipp herb garden and further along the Ellmaustein path. Will you answer the five questions correctly to win a prize?

All aboard the paddle steamers and ferries of Lake Wolfgang. With six vessels and various routes, you can hop on and off at one of the seven docks to explore the surrounding villages and towns. You can sail all the way down to Strobl in just over one hour, where the largest boat on the lake holds 365 passengers.

Spend a day on the water and get involved with a range of water sports on the lake. Looking for a gentle experience, then hire a stand-up paddle board. Looking for something more thrilling? Then you can try sailing, wind surfing, water skiing or even tubing.

Dive into nature and quietness - motorboats are banned on Fuschlsee - instead, the little Fuschlerin barge glides between the wooden jetties on the lakeshore. You can plot your own route between turquoise bays too - by kayak, rowing boat or pedalo. Any place is an excellent place for a swim – especially in the Fuschleseebad lido, where you can also rent a paddleboard.
