Lake Erlauf is located just 3 km (1.9 miles)
northwest of Mariazell at an altitude of 827 meters (2713 ft) on the border
between Styria and Lower Austria. The
many leisure time activities available to you at this pristine mountain lake of
drinking quality water could just be the delightful outing you are looking for.
Let the gentle waves carry you away as you revel in the scenic surroundings on
your boat ride around the lake. At the
boat rental office (Bootsverleih)
there are 30 boats of different types: paddleboats, boats with electric motors
and romantic row boats just waiting for you.
At the southern edge of Lake Erlauf is the high
ropes course Bujaka Skyline, which has been naturally integrated into the
forest stand. You can climb to lofty
heights on one of four different routes with a total of 40 stations.
Visitors to the lake in the hot summer months can cool off in the refreshing
waters at a temperature of 21°C (70°F). Easy access to a finely pebbled beach with a
generous lawn for sunbathing, two slides, two bathing jetties, a jumping board
and a play area for children, all free of charge, are at your disposal.
The underwater world of the lake reveals
magnificent sunken landscapes and submerged trees just waiting to be discovered
on a dive. The crystal clear water with
a visibility range of up to 20 meters deep (66 ft) and an impressive fish
population attract divers (Taucher) and
anglers (Fischer) alike
to Lake Erlauf. It is known throughout
the region and beyond as the home to the lake char (Seesaibling) and grand
pikes. The lake is also rich in other
species of fish such as perch, rudd, brown trout and rainbow trout.
Stretching all the way around Lake Erlauf are
pleasant hiking paths inviting you to an easy afternoon stroll or a quick-paced
walk.
After your march or any of the leisure time activities, you can take a rest and
enjoy a bite to eat at the beach snack bar Liane and the Café-Restaurant Herrenhaus
near the beach or at the inn Gasthof Seewirt
near the diving station.
