Bad Gastein is one of Austria’s most elegant and distinctive Alpine resorts—a destination with aristocratic heritage, Belle Époque architecture, and a bohemian atmosphere rarely found in the Alps. Spectacularly set in an Alpine valley, the resort combines dramatic nature, thermal waters, and a relaxed pace, making it ideal for spring and summer holidays. In spring and summer, Bad Gastein is perfect for:
• wellness & slow travel, thanks to natural thermal waters and spa centers
• panoramic hikes and easy nature walks
• authentic Austrian gastronomy, local restaurants, and culinary experiences
• iconic attractions, such as panoramic platforms and the Stubnerkogel suspension bridge, accessible by cable car
The resort offers a discreet yet lively social scene: cafés, mountain-view bars, traditional restaurants, and an elegant vibe—without the crowds of ultra-commercial resorts.
