Guided Theme Hikes in the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve Salzburger Lungau
Chaletdorf Fanningberg is your residence, with entertainment provided exclusively by nature and the abundance of life itself. Our activity program in summer is diverse, which is why we have also put together a number of theme hikes for you to enjoy. Wherever you decide to explore, you will be accompanied by locals who know the nature in the biosphere reserve, if you like to. We want to present and explain our nature to you in the best way possible.
Thanks to the Chaletdorf Shuttle, you will be able to enjoy a comfortable ride into Weisspriachtal. The area extending from the start of the “Mushroom Theme Path” out to the “Seekreuz” and to the mountain lakes of the region, will be where you share your nature adventure together. On the Barefoot Path, for example, feel how nature truly “feels”. Dip your legs and arms into the refreshing mountain water according to the teachings of Pastor Kneipp. And during a herb hike, learn all about the medicines and recipes provided by Mother Nature herself – the herbs you find can also be used, once you return to Chaletdorf Fanningberg, for a soothing massage of the reflexology zones on the soles of your feet.
Nature Adventure for Children
For children nature experiences should definitely be the most important thing on holidays, offering lots of excitement and adventure: How do I build a shelter out of branches and grasses? What animals live here and all the way up to those rocky peaks? What mushrooms and berries are suitable for eating? How did people live here in earlier times?
What are we waiting for – let’s do it!
Our alpine hut…
The alpine hut “Granglerhütte” in the valley of Weißpriach
We also run the alpine hut “Granglerhütte” in the so called Weißpriachtal. A beautiful hiking trail leads to the hut along the idyllic mountain stream “Longa”. If a short walk is enough for you, you can take the toll road to the parking lot in the Alm area.
We are looking forward to your visit!
Eldorado for Fly Fishers
Fly fishing at the mountain river Longa, an absolute insider tip for experts and beginners: From June until October, from sunrise to sunset, fly fishers can be seen alongside the clear, cold mountain river. The river provides an ideal habitat for native brook- and rainbow trout, Arctic char and grayling.
It’s time to make the big catch!

Where the Lungau celebrates …
The “moonlight nights” in Mauterndorf and the “Z’sammsitz’n” in Tamsweg take place several times throughout the summer. These are traditional events in the Lungau Biosphere Reserve, where locals and guests meet. A good opportunity to get to know the cuisine, music and traditions of the region. In addition, there are regular parades with the historic giant figure “Samson”.
Mushrooms and berries…
Delightful mushrooms and berries can be found right outside the door of the chalets on Fanningberg. Every year the anticipation for the first mushroom sauce and the porcini mushroom is great again! Satisfy your taste, look for mushrooms in the forests of the Lungau. Collect blackberries and cranberries right in front of the chalet door or on the most beautiful alpine pastures.
