For many centuries, salt barges (Salzzillen) were used on the Traunsee to transport the precious salt from Ebensee to Gmunden. As part of the Capital of Culture year, an exact replica of a 16th-century salt barge was created, which will now make its journeys on the lake in the future. Let yourself be transported back to a historic era on a round trip aboard the Gisela, accompanied by the salt barge, when salt was carried across the Traunsee by means of these traditional vessels.

Departure: 12:30 with the steamship Gisela at the Austriasteg, Gmunden Duration: 1.5 hours Advance booking: Tel. +43 7612/66700, info@traunseeschifffahrt.at
