Gustav Klimt spent many summers on Lake Attersee with his “soul mate” Emilie Flöge. Now the territory is the first “Dark Sky Park’ in Austria and seeing the stars here is exciting.
The discovery of the Atter see as a summer holiday destination began in the mid-19th century, first as a destination for excursions from Bad Ischl, a holiday resort of the imperial family and nobility. In 2012, the landscape conservation area between Atter See and Traunsee was designated as a nature park.
