Summer holiday at its best at Lake Weissensee
Weissensee during summer
In summer, the crystal-clear, turquoise water of the Weissensee reaches temperatures up to 26°C and invites you to go for a swim and to do plenty of other water activities. Enjoy the sun, lying on our own spacious beach - directly at the hotel. Of course deckchairs and parasols are free of charge for our guests.
Austria’s purest lake
Lake Weissensee has been awarded the title "Best of the best" because it is Austria's cleanest bathing water. The outstanding values are thanks to the altitude of 930 metres and, above all, the environmentally conscious actions of the local population. Natural – clear – invigorating!
