The area around the Attersee inspired Gustav Klimt for a large part of his landscape paintings. The linden tree avenue in front of the impressive lakeside castle Kammer is one of the most famous motifs of this kind. Along the Klimt Theme Trail, you can immerse yourself in Klimt's time at the Attersee. It continues in a similarly cultural vein at the Zwach Gallery. In changing exhibitions, young artists are given the opportunity to present themselves and their works.

Schloss Kammer is a moated castle in Schörfling am Attersee (Hauptstraße 28) in Upper Austria. The alternative, obsolete name Kammersee for the lake refers to this castle and thus to the Salzkammergut. The castle, today located on a peninsula, originally on an island (with a jetty to the mainland) in the northern Attersee, is a massive, rectangular, three-story building with two low side wings enclosing a courtyard.

The marina was built in 1981 and extended in 1991 with a connecting jetty. It offers a modern and well-equipped harbor facility for permanent berths. The market town of Schörfling am Attersee owns the Marina Schörfling, and Lake Attersee is managed by the Austrian Federal Forests (ÖBF). For the use of the jetties, boat berths, pilots, etc., the market town has been paying a lease to the ÖBF in the marina area since 2005. The valid rental fees for boat berths are set out in a tariff order.

The Pile Dwelling Adventure at Lake Attersee. Since June 2011, we are delighted that three of the submerged pile-dwelling villages in Lake Attersee have been declared UNESCO World Heritage Sites. From the Neolithic period to the Bronze Age, our ancestors lived here and built their villages on piles. In total, 111 settlements have been recognized as World Heritage sites in Austria, Switzerland, Germany, France, Slovenia, and Italy. In addition to our three treasures on Lake Attersee – Litzlberg South, Abtsdorf 1 and 3 – we also find the settlement of See am Mondsee and an island in Lake Keutschacher See, which have received this distinction. Would you like to immerse yourself in the lives of the first settlers? Or are you interested in life in the Stone Age? Then you can follow in the footsteps of Ötzi and turn back the clock with a pile-dwelling guide. Be inspired and discover the exciting history of our region around Lake Attersee!

At Seewalchen lido, parents and children have plenty to do to really spice up their day at the beach! The 10-meter diving platform tempts the bravest among you who want to plunge directly into the clear Attersee. If you're looking for warmer water, the solar-heated pool is just the thing. But the best comes last: The long water slide is tons of fun and leads into its own pool – here, sliding becomes a real highlight! For younger guests, there's a cute children's area with a large baby pool, shaded by awnings, and a great playground for romping. The prices for admission to Seewalchen lido are as follows: a day ticket for adults costs €5.50 from 9 a.m., €4.60 from 1 p.m., and €2.70 from 4 p.m. Pupils, apprentices, students, disabled people, and those doing military or civil service pay €3.40 from 9 a.m., €2.50 from 1 p.m., and €1.70 from 4 p.m. Families (2 adults with children) pay from 9 a.m.
