The Hallstatt lake procession is a true feast for the eyes. Countless boats decorated with flowers, barges and regular service ships accompany the procession along with a floating altar above the lake.

On the occasion of the summer solstice, the World Heritage festival celebrates the region’s inclusion in the UNESCO World
Heritage list with a programme of music, dance, creativity and trivia. .
