Location

The Hotel Gungau is an ideal starting point for an active hiking and cycling holiday, perfect for a summer vacation in the Austrian mountains.

Facilities

The Hotel Gungau impresses with its friendly and cozy atmosphere, welcoming guests to a total of 35 traditionally furnished rooms with wood-style interiors. After an eventful day in the Salzburg mountains or the Hinterglemm valley, guests can find peace and relaxation in the hotel's own wellness area. An à la carte restaurant – open only in winter – with continuous warm cuisine offers culinary delights with regional specialties. For a cozy end to an eventful day, gathering at the hotel bar is recommended. Families with children will especially appreciate the playground and children's playroom.
