Heaven's Gate (Schafberg)

Highlight • Natural Monument

After the somewhat more strenuous ascent, of course, the view is tough! When the weather is clear, you really have a good view of every surrounding lake and the breathtaking area.

At this crossroads you get a great view of the Suissensee, the Attersee and the Mondsee! But the Schafberg wall also looks very impressive and mighty!

Incredibly beautiful scenery with the mountain peaks and the Mittersee. We were very surprised by how much snow was still on the ground. Luckily we had our crampons with us, because they served us well.
