St. Johann im Pongau in the Salzburg region and perfectly suited for a varied vacation. The town is divided into the districts of Ober- and Untertauern. The Katschbergstraße (B 99) runs through the municipal area from
Radstadt to the Radstädter Tauernpass at an altitude of around 1,700 meters. From Salzburg, drive along the Tauern motorway to the Ennstal exit and then back along the Katschbergstraße. The nearest train station is in Radstadt. With a bus or taxi, you can quickly get to your personal holiday accommodation, holiday home, or a cheap, privately-owned apartment in Untertauern. Simply book your cozy accommodation, house, apartment, or apartment with sauna, Wi-Fi, balcony, and parking at a cheap price, and unforgettable vacations await you between ski resorts and hiking trails.
Refreshing summer and snow fun in winter
For Untertauern and the
Salzburg region, the best travel time is from June to August, when the sun shines in full glory, you can cool off in the idyllic mountain lakes or shady forests and enjoy the jewels of nature. Winter is not to be underestimated, either. Untertauern and the region are snow-sure and provide excellent conditions for winter sports. Tip: The climatic conditions are also suitable for a
holiday with a dog in the Zell am See - Kaprun region. Some holiday homes and apartments explicitly allow and are equipped for four-legged friends. In winter, numerous ski resorts also await you, where families with children can tackle many slope kilometers over various slopes.
A fine gourmet hotspot with a seal of quality
With the title Genussregion Österreich, Pongau can celebrate itself as a gourmet mecca. Use your vacation with a cozy holiday home or apartment to experience culinary delights. Pongau and the region are highly known for the quality of chamois, deer, and stag meat. Hunting in the forests, preparing and refining has developed into a great tradition and culture over the centuries. Only what comes from the homeland and has been handled wisely is served here. Try it yourself and taste the difference. Treat yourself to delicious meat pies, Pongauer Gröstl, Pofesen, Nockerln, or a juicy venison ragout. It's also worth visiting the local restaurants on specialty days, such as wild or fish days, to be served particularly unique and tasty menus. Enjoy your meal!
A wildlife park without fences
With holiday accommodation, a privately-owned apartment, or a spacious holiday home, a
mountain holiday in the Zell am See - Kaprun region becomes an unforgettable experience for young and old. Both in summer and winter, you will find numerous leisure activities for the whole family here. Immerse yourself in the Salzburg ski resorts, which can be easily reached with a free ski bus. We recommend Obertauern or Sportwelt Ski Amadé. A top tip for families is also the Untertauern leisure & wildlife park. This is not a classical zoo but a vast natural area where humans, animals, and nature harmoniously coexist. Also, take a trip to Altenmarkt-Zauchensee and Bad Gastein or the wildlife and leisure park in Untertauern.
