Exclusive apartments on Lake Wolfgang
A holiday with a dog at Lake Wolfgang is all about having everything within easy reach. In St. Wolfgang, the lakeshore, walking paths, and hiking routes are all close together. This creates a daily rhythm that works well for both people and dogs: fresh air in the morning, time by the water at midday, a scenic walk in the afternoon, and relaxation again in the evening. This combination is typical of Lake Wolfgang in the Salzkammergut, as you can quickly move between lakeside, forest, and village without long travel times.
At the Promegggut, you stay in self-contained holiday apartments. This is especially convenient when traveling with a dog, as you can set your own routine—breakfast at your preferred time, a break in between, or heading out again in the evening without following a fixed schedule. There are a total of four apartments, each offering around 50 m² of living space and accommodating up to four people. Amenities include Wi-Fi as well as a kitchen or kitchenette with a stove and refrigerator. Towels, bed linen, and tableware are provided.
An added bonus is the spacious grounds surrounding the property. The large garden, with its green spaces and stream, offers plenty of room for outdoor activities. This makes a stay in the holiday apartments on Lake Wolfgang a straightforward and relaxing experience, even when travelling with a dog.
There are many paths around St. Wolfgang that are suitable for tours with dogs. In summer, the shaded sections of the woods are pleasant, while in spring and autumn, the routes often feel particularly peaceful. Even in winter, the Wolfgangsee region offers numerous trails and scenic walks. Many trails can be planned as short walks, others as longer hikes with a view.
The Falkensteinweg, which links St. Wolfgang and St. Gilgen, is one of the best-known trails around Lake Wolfgang. It runs partly through the woods and, in places, above the lake. This means there are frequent views of Lake Wolfgang, without the hike feeling like an alpine trek.
If you’d like to tackle a bit more elevation gain, be sure to include the Schafberg in your plans. It is one of the most striking mountains around Lake Wolfgang. From its summit, there’s a sweeping view over parts of the Salzkammergut. For many, this is an outing that provides a clear focus for a day’s holiday, without the need to combine several destinations.
For many, a lakeside holiday with a dog is only complete when the dog can also get into the water. At Lake Wolfgangsee, there are several spots available for this purpose.
This makes it easy to combine warm days: first go for a walk, then head to the water, and afterwards return and enjoy the rest of the day as you wish.
At Promegggut, a quiet location above St. Wolfgang combines with short distances to Lake Wolfgangsee and many opportunities for walks, hikes, and excursions with your dog. You can book your holiday apartment at Promegggut online or send a non-binding inquiry.
