Hallstatt Parking: The Ultimate Guide

Hallstatt

The village of Hallstatt is nestled between high mountains and the Hallstatt Lake.

There is limited space and, therefore, very limited Hallstatt parking spaces. 

On top of the fact that the village is visited by millions of tourists per year- it makes finding parking difficult

We recommend taking the bus or train to Hallstatt

Our Recommendations | Where we Stay in Hallstatt

♥ The first time we visited with our family we stayed at the fabulous Seehotel Grüner Baum, in a suite with a lakeside balcony.
♥  I also like Gasthof Simony, located next door to the Seehotel Grüner Baum. This is the most economical place to stay, lakeside, in the centre of Hallstatt.  There are rooms with shared bathroom, but I stay in the Double Room with Balcony, Lake View and private bathroom.
