On May 20, 1873, the paddle steamer “Kaiser Franz Josef I“ set sail for the first time. This 33-meters-long ship with its powerful paddle-wheels was regarded as a major technological achievement in its day. Now as then, this photogenic vintage ship shuttles between the towns of St. Wolfgang and St. Gilgen, and is one of the fleet‘s main attractions. The difference to earlier is that today’s vessel is no longer powered by steam, but rather a diesel engine. As the biggest inland passenger shipping fleet in Austria, WolfgangseeSchifffahrt ferries invites guests to hop on or hop off spontaneously at seven different boat landings: Ports of call include Strobl, St. Wolfgang and St. Gilgen, along with a number of other beautiful spots. Elegant Jugendstil villas, turquoise waters, the midday chimes of a famous pilgrimage church and the views of the Zwölferhorn and Schafberg promise that pure, ineffable “Salzkammergut feeling”!
