Hallstatt & Melk Day Trip

Hallstatt and Melk Abbey in One Day

Discover two of the most beautiful places in Austria on a single full-day trip from Vienna. You combine the fairy-tale lakeside village of Hallstatt in the Salzkammergut with the magnificent baroque Melk Abbey high above the Danube, for a perfect mix of nature and culture.

In Hallstatt you have free time to wander the narrow lanes of this world-famous village, set between a deep alpine lake and steep mountains, with pastel houses and postcard views in every direction.

On the way you also visit Melk Abbey, one of the most impressive monasteries in Europe. With its grand abbey church, imperial rooms and famous library, this golden baroque masterpiece offers sweeping views over the Wachau and the Danube before you return to Vienna.
