About this spot

The Wolfgangsee in the Salzkammergut is a strikingly beautiful lake that receives sudden, storm-strength NW winds without much warning. These conditions are suited only to expert riders who can react quickly to rapid changes in wind strength. But summer brings a nice thermal breeze, suited for everyone.
