We have been there in the 1980s. Much liked the houses with facades full of geraniums. Used to eat at the Weisses Hirsch on the lake close to the more famous and crowded Weisses Rössl (a problem with German characters?).

Thank you for showing me Sankt Wolfgang am Wolfgangsee in your VT pages back in 2007. Now I was already two times there and I can't wait to get back :) It is a magic place. Best regards from Bucharest.

Today, in the early hours, I visited your beautiful page, and I have sensed the perfume of the mountains and the sea. I like to remember these divine surroundings. Splendid photos and useful information! Best regards from Vienna! Gabriela
