Stand-up paddling in Salzburg – the best lakes for your SUP adventure
Stand-up paddling in Salzburg means crystal-clear water, impressive mountain scenery and plenty of nature. The region has lots of lakes that are wonderful for paddling, among them the Fuschlsee, the Wolfgangsee and the Mattsee. Each of the three lakes has its own charm, with different views and landscapes.
The Fuschlsee is probably the best known of them all, with its beautiful mountain backdrop and crystal-clear water. The Wolfgangsee is ideal for long tours because it is especially calm and peaceful. And last but not least: the Mattsee is perfect if you want a seaside feel right next to Salzburg. There is a beautiful beach at the Strandbad Mattsee (lido) and lots of lovely little bays to explore. So if you are looking for a great place to go stand-up paddling near Salzburg, these three lakes are the perfect choice. They are a short trip from the city, and you will find everything you need when you get there.
