Experience aboard the steamship "Gisela" – Ebensee to Gmunden

The "Gisela" is one of the oldest steamships in the world, built in 1871, and features an oscillating compound steam engine. The engine and its engineers can be observed from the deck. It is also one of the most beautiful ships, gliding historically across the water with its two paddle wheels.

From 1 July to 31 August 2026, guests can board every Sunday at 10:15 (arrival of the Gisela at 10:10) at the Ebensee jetty and use this elegant mode of transport for the journey to the Rathausplatz in Gmunden. In the district capital, passengers disembark and can take the next scheduled boat back to Ebensee at 11:30 or one of the subsequent boats (depending on the desired length of stay; see timetable for sailing times).

Dogs are permitted, but must be kept on a leash and wear a muzzle.
