Gosau Mountain Christmas

Traditional Austrian Advent Market

The Gosau Mountain Christmas is a truly special holiday market in the heart of Austria’s Salzkammergut – authentic, peaceful, and full of regional charm. Just steps from the Vitalhotel Gosau, guests can experience a heartwarming winter event that brings together tradition and genuine hospitality.

Under the motto “Preserving customs and traditions,” local associations, artisans, and farmers present their handcrafted treasures and regional delicacies. The air is filled with the aroma of freshly baked goods, mulled wine, and hearty Austrian dishes, while folk music and festive tunes create a magical holiday atmosphere.

A highlight for families is the charming children’s program: little ones can craft gifts in the Christmas workshop, enjoy horse-drawn sleigh rides, meet friendly donkeys, or join a lantern-lit evening walk. The Gosau Mountain Christmas captures the true spirit of the season – authentic, regional, and unforgettable – surrounded by the snow-covered beauty of the Austrian Alps.
