On Saturday, June 22, 2024, a large solstice fire will again be lit on the Feuerkogel high plateau at 1,600 m above Lake Traunsee. An atmospheric start to summer is celebrated with a traditional solstice bonfire, regional live music and a great supporting programme for the whole family.

Alpine pasture hike with nature tour
