What you will see
Melk's Benedictine abbey rises above the Danube; interiors require separate admission. In Hallstatt, walk the waterfront and historic square. Gmunden offers a Traunsee promenade and Ort Castle on a small island linked by a bridge.
The story of the place
Melk has medieval monastic roots and a mainly Baroque present appearance. Hallstatt recalls prehistoric salt mining and Gmunden the salt trade. Brno is offered as two days; the Vienna day variant is also long, with stops fitted to opening times.
Make the most of your visit · Hallstatt, Melk & Gmunden
A Hallstatt, Melk and Gmunden trip moves from Danube scenery to the Salzkammergut lakes. Melk's Baroque abbey and library can be explored on an available tour, Hallstatt through shore-side lanes, and Gmunden along the promenade towards Ort Castle. This is an extensive route: visits reflect a day or multi-day plan rather than a promise of every interior.
