Amazing St Wolfgang Schafberg Mountain Cog Railway Day Trip From Salzburg Austria 4k

- Join me on this amazing St Wolfgang Schafberg mountain cog railway day trip from Salzburg, Austria. The Schafberg mountain is in the beautiful Salzkammergut resort region of Austria and the Schafberg cog railway, the steepest cog railway in Austria, at St Wolfgang has been in operation since 1893. On this journey we also take the fabulously scenic St Gilgen to St Wolfgang ferry across Wolfgangsee Lake, which is one of the best known lakes in the Salzkammergut resort region. At St Wolfgang we take the memorable Schafberg cog railway to the top of the Schafberg mountain. Once at the top of the Schafberg mountain we explore what the mountain has offer and its many astonishing views, including getting away from the crowds and climbing to the top of the precipitous Spinnerin.
Schafberg (Salzkammergut)
Schafberg (1,783 m) is a mountain in the Austrian state of Salzburg. Situated within the Salzkammergut Mountains range of the Northern Limestone Alps, the Schafberg rises at the shore of Wolfgangsee Lake.
Schafberg Cog Railway
The Schafberg Railway, Schafbergbahn in German, is a metre gauge cog railway in Upper Austria and Salzburg leading from Sankt Wolfgang im Salzkammergut up to the Schafberg. With a total length of 5.85 km it gains 1190 vertical meters. Construction of the Schafberg Railway commenced in 1892 and operations begun during the following year. It is owned by Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) and operated by the local company SchafbergBahn und Wolfgangsee Schifffahrt (SLB), part of the Salzburg AG group.
Lake Wolfgang Ferry
The WolfgangseeSchifffahrt ferries have been sailing between St. Wolfgang, St. Gilgen, and Strobl since 1873. The fleet consists of six motorized vessels, running daily from May until October, as well as on weekends during Advent, in springtime, and at Easter. Boat landings are located at St. Gilgen, Fürberg, Ried/Falkenstein, Schafbergbahn, St. Wolfgang, Geschwendt and Strobl. The ferry ride from St. Gilgen to St. Wolfgang takes about 45 minutes on Wolfgangsee Lake, with beautiful views of the lakeside villages and towns before arriving at the pier at St. Wolfgang.
Wolfgangsee
Lake Wolfgang, Wolfgangsee in German, is a lake in Austria that lies mostly within the state of Salzburg and is one of the best known lakes in the Salzkammergut resort region. The municipalities on its shore are Strobl, St. Gilgen with the villages of Abersee and Ried as well as the market town of St. Wolfgang in the state of Upper Austria. The town and the lake are named after Saint Wolfgang of Regensburg, who, according to legend, built the first church here in the late 10th century.

Hi Paul I am certain I drop my comment on this but disappeared...so sorry
here is a brief comment:
Looks like Christmas spirits stays with this local motive engine....
You nailed it ! majestic! this is like a postcard....8:30 14:07 17:49 28:06 10:50 panoramic view take my breath away.. is the air thin???
I am not sure how many tunnels are in this mountain, but think of it, inch by inch to tunnel was dug from both side??? 8:56
OMGoodness, I see the sharp ridges on the left in front of YOU that makes you itching....you must climb!!!! 28:06
I almost feel cold air and look down........wow..so steep, narrow. Fewer hikers in my eyes???
I can see your face with satisfaction...boat, locomotive, and hike ..wow what else you can ask
I take advantage of you and enjoy this film...thank YOU, Paul...sorry my original comment was lost somewhere....love love bestie
@@ms.kayak7seas I only noticed the Christmas thing when I played back the video. This was a super day out and one that made me feel glad I started vlogging. There was only 1 tunnel to speak of on the Schafberg cog railway. I cheated for once. Well I cheated a lot on that trip. I still have a bit more to come from it. And you know me I do like to get away from the crowds whenever I can. The views were amazin on the Schafberg mountain. I'm so glad you enjoyed the views I managed to capture. Thank you so much for watching 🙂Paul

Beautiful ferry ride to the part where you picked up the Cog Train, Paul. Then a stunning ride up to an area with stunning views of the lakes! Gorgeous on your hike around and loved the sharp drop-offs on the cliffs. From behind the fence! You mean you see folks (riff raff) like us up there! 🤣🤣We'd be on that train and would walk around a little. But, not on that steep climb to the top! We agree though. Pretty awesome view and a wonderful trip! Thanks for bringing us along. 😁😁
Hi Dave n Kathy, yeah it's a bit more comfortable taking in the views from behind the fence but not quite the same adrenaline rush. And couldn't possibly comment on the riff raff 😂 The train was quite marvellous. I do like to go off on my wanders away from the crowds tho. The ferry ride there and back was a super added bonus too. All made up for memorable day. I'm glad you enjoyed the captured views from the day trip from Salzburg. Thank you so much for taking time to watch 👍🙂Paul
Like 11 watching now 👍
Thank you very much Adzey 👍
Hi Paul, a lovely boat trip and the houses along the way were beautiful, the water looks so very clear. I liked the idea of catching the cog railway to the top of the mountain. The views on the way up were amazing. Stunning at the top. Looks a lovely day, the skies are so blue. The stodge looked like a huge pretzel. ha ha , lovely views on the return boat journey, take care have a great week, x Julie and Tony x
Hi Julie n Tony, this was a memorable day out and one that makes me so glad I decided to start vlogging. The views were unreal and got super lucky with the weather. What you mean the salty bread thing isn't called stodge 😂Thank you very much for watching 👍🙂Paul
Unbelievable beautiful..thanks for the share...really enjoyed it...have a great day

Cool boat ride some good mountain views on the journey. Then a train ride up the mountain looked steep in parts. More great views definitely stunning very high up 😮 Nice cross ✝️ Cool 360 views. I'm glad the weather held off raining for you . Did well avoiding the crowds so many good views . Thanks for sharing your journey with us, Hermit 👍
The whole trip was pretty amazing and will live long in the memory. I'm glad I started vlogging now. The rain actually came down while I was on the bus back to Salzburg so got real lucky and real burnt too. I'm glad you enjoyed the trip up the Schafberg and the views I managed to capture.

Hi Paul! What a beautiful boat ride followed by a stunning train ride! The views were extraordinary. You were incredibly high up and extremely brave to climb up those rocks to the top. It made my knees go a bit wobbly, lol! Thank you for taking us along on this fabulous trip! ❤❤
Hi Julie n Lucy, this is another trip I'd wanted to do for a wee while and what a great day for it, it turned out to be. The views were amazing at every turn. It was pretty high up on Spinnerin and a bit precarious. You could say brave or stupid 😂 I guess I get used to it but I don't take undue risks. Sorry for making your knees go wobbly 😂 I'm glad you enjoyed the trip. Thank you very much for coming along for the ride 🙂👍Paul
Paul, your footage is amazing! Im glad the weather was in your favor. The boat ride was lovely, I loved the color of the water. You had the best seat on the train to showcase the views for us! That hike to the top of the mountain was awesome! Thanks for sharing your adventure! 😊
Yeah it actually started raining whilst on the bus back to Salzburg so I was pretty lucky with the weather. This was a pretty amazing trip out that will live long in the memory. It's days like these that I am glad I started vlogging. I'm glad you enjoyed the video of the trip out and the captured views. Thank you very much for watching 🙂👍Paul

Hi John, this was an amazing trip out and made me glad I started vlogging. I'm so pleased you enjoyed the views I managed to capture and enjoyed the video. Thank you very much for watching 🙂Paul
Hello Paul 👋. This is really a breathtaking and very one of a life time experience. The views are stunning and gorgeous. Thank you 🙏🏻 for bringing back on my memories. I’ve been there in Herbst and looks not lucky with a weather. I have really a good ideas how amazing during sunny day. Have a great day 👍. Greatings from Germany 🇩🇪.
Hi Kenn, this was an awesome trip out and made me feel glad I started vlogging my trips. I was super lucky with the weather on this day as it started raining whilst on the bus on the way back to Salzburg. I'm glad you enjoyed the captured views from this trip up the Schafberg cog railway. Thank you very much for watching 👍🙂Paul
Very beautiful mountain
Everything about that place is just stunning. Loved the boat ride on the lake, the train ride up the mountain and the hike on the summit. The views from the top are spectacular. 🙂👍
Hi Anita, this was a pretty awesome day out and certainly one to remember. The Schafberg cog railway was pretty cool. I'm so glad you enjoyed the views I captured from the trip. Thank you very much for taking time to watch. Have a great week ahead 🙂👍Paul
Great views over to Shafberg from St Gilgen, it’s quite an imposing mountain over Wolfgangsee. Definitely a place I’d like to return to. What an amazing railway journey that looks! You had perfect weather for your visit, it’s certainly a popular spot and it’s easy to appreciate why. 12:44 the gap in the wall, thats the way we came up and I can assure you that is one of, if not the most difficult mountain climbs we have ever done! ❤ thanks for the shout out Paul! Think we’ll take the train or the easier route next time! 😂your series on Germany/Austria is really making us rethink our holiday plans this year, what an awesome trip! Have to admit even touching the cross with that sheer drop beside it is nerve wracking! Can see the cable car from St Gilgen up the Zwölferhorn across the way! Really doesn’t feel like you’re practically at 6000 foot, how well maintained everything is up there. Mmm, salty stodge! You had the hike to the tip practically to yourself! Ah St Wolfgang, we shall return! Great video ❤
It had been a trip I'd wanted to do for a few years. In fact the whole trip was. I need to return to the region for a bit of unfinished business and some new explores I feel. The weather on this day ended up being better than forecast so I was super lucky cos it was perfect. It actually started to rain whilst on the bus on the way back to Salzburg. It looked pretty steep to hike up and maybe one day I will do it. However the train is pretty awesome for a cheat mode. I must admit I was watching my step going to the top of Spinnerin cos any misstep might not have been fun. It sure got the adrenaline pumping anyway. The cable car is pretty much across the way from the 150 bus stop to Salzburg. The ferry and train wasn't cheap but you only live once I say and for memories like that I'd say it was worth it. I still have one or 2 more videos to come from the trip. I still need to sort out my big trip for this year yet. I have a week in Scotland booked but need to decide on one or 2 others. I'm glad you enjoyed the captured views from this day trip and the tour of an old favourite. Thank you very much for watching 👍🙂Paul
That was a great train ride. The views from the top were epic. I would definitely want to do this one..!
I thought you were going off the cliff on that hike shot 😮😮
I'm glad you enjoyed the trip up Schafberg cog railway and the captured views from the top. Thankfully I didn't go off any cliffs. Thank you very much for watching. Have a great week ahead 🙂👍Paul
So beautiful ❤️
Hi Paul. Your ferry ride was amazing! The houses scattered along the shoreline with the mountains behind them were beautiful. Wow what a train ride up into the mountains….the sights were impressive! Thanks for sharing your wonderful traveling adventure! 👍😊🇨🇦

I'm glad you enjoyed the captured views from the day. Thank you so much for taking time to watch. Have a great week ahead 👍🙂Paul
I enjoy hill railways as they are unique. Nice shot of your viewpoint! Cool! Looking great!
Oh, good and bad memories bind me to this mountain. The views from the top are fascinating, however, I injured my leg there last summer, the consequences of which I still feel a little. You had a great weather while filming and you presented this masterfully! Hats off my friend!
I remember watching the video. Your ankles always seem to remember things like that for a while, I hope it stops reminding you soon. I was super lucky with the weather as the forecast was for heavy rain mid afternoon and that came in whilst on the bus back to Salzburg. The views on the Schafberg were absolutely amazing. I was lucky I could see for miles and could see the Dachstein mountains on the horizon from Spinnerin.
Beautiful railway trip, the views from the top are spectacular 👍31
Omg that’s just a stunner.
We will definitely try and get time to do this in the Autumn. Love the ferry ride but it’s the cog railway that our family will love. The views from up there are incredible!!
Another great share Paul. 👍
Hi Dave, you should definitely make time if you can. This was another awesome day out and I was super lucky with the weather on this day. A day to make me feel glad that I started vlogging. I'm now starting to run out of awesome footage from this most memorable trip to Germany and Austria. I'm glad you enjoyed the captured views from the trip up the Schafberg cog railway. Thank you very much for watching 👍🙂Paul
Absolutely stunning place Paul and that cog railway looked amazing . The views all around here are beautiful especially up at the summit view point, doesnt mattter if you cheated 😃 That place is surrounded by mountains and lakes ! These places in your recent videos have been so gorgeous and watchable 👍~ Anna
Hi Anna, this one was my first cog railway and what a ride it was. This one had awesome views in every direction. It makes me so glad I started vlogging to help remember the day by. However it will live long in the memory as will the whole trip. I still have some more up my sleeve yet from the trip yet. I'm so glad you enjoyed this trip up the Schafberg cog railway. Thank you very much for taking time to watch 👍🙂Paul
Thumbs up Paul.
Nice upload.
Congratulations on winning on LB ❤❤
Thank you so much, Aishu 🙂👍
St Wolfgang Schafberg mountain; Ah....spectacular with the stunning views! Loved the cool train ride and seeing the cross on the mountain; 26:33 too narrow for me Joking Hermit; I would have a panic attack (seriously). 32:28 beautiful lake; looks refreshing! Thank you for another wonderful share of beautiful Salzburg, Austria! Happy weekend!
Hi Tracy, I'm so glad you enjoyed this trip up the Schafberg on the Schafberg cog railway. It was an awesome few hours out and one to make me feel glad I started vlogging my travels.

Paul, I would say that is some of the most spectacular scenery I’ve ever seen 😍
That view from the cross is just staggering and I don’t blame you being careful with drops like that.
10/10 mate and even relatively quiet for such a stunning place 👍
Hi Phil, the views was pretty astonishing I have to say. And again I got lucky getting such a clear day with great weather. It's a trip that will live long in the memory. It wasn't super busy but great to make my way away from the crowds. Thank you very much for watching 🙂👍Paul

The views at the top, so many lakes and the colour of the water 😊
I'm not surprised you had so much footage
Hope you are well and having a good week

Hi Morgs Jo and Boo, this was another awesome day out on awesome trip to Germany and Austria. I got super lucky with the weather on this day and could see for miles, it was perfect.

I'm so glad you enjoyed the video and found it helpful. I hope you have a great time in St Wolfgang when you visit. Thank you very much for dropping me a comment, Paul
Pretty amazing that Paul from the steam boat crossing to the cog train (fab pov view )
But the summit definitely is breathtaking Paul (these northern Alps 🏔️🏔️Are breathtaking)
Great film
Best regards Simon 🤠👍🏔️

Hello Paul. Great videography, information and narration. Love that train and ride up the mountain. So many very beautiful views. Lovely mountains, lake and landscapes and more. Thanks for taking us along with you in Salzburg, Austria. Have a great weekend.

A train! A perfect way to scale a mountain, Paul! Watching now.
Hi Dave n Kathy, yes I cheated again...this is becoming a habit 😂
Hello my dear friend very beautiful places amazing views A wonderful country with beautiful landscapes. Have a nice trip
L57
I'm so glad you enjoyed the captured views from this trip up the Schafberg mountain. Thank you very much for taking time to watch 🙂👍
Thank you very much 🙂
Hey Paul! Fantastic tour, love the ferry ride across the emerald green lake and the train up the mountains ❤ stunning view at 13.03, imagine putting a swing there. Well worth the hike even if you didnt get the full cross in the frame haha. My legs are tired just from watching all that walking and hiking. 😂
Hi Lina, I'm so glad you enjoyed this tour up the Schafberg on the Schafberg cog railway. It was a super day out and the views were absolutely stunning. A school boy error with the cross. This was an easy hike out compared to what I'm used to. Thank you very much for watching 👍🙂Paul
wow what an amazing looking place, the landscape is out of this world! The views from the lake were so magical but when you could see the views from the top on your walk that really showed how amazing the area really is. Austria is definitely a hidden gem x
This was an amazing day out up the Schafberg mountain on the Schafberg cog railway. The views just seemed to get better and better. Austria really is beautiful. I'm so glad you enjoyed those views I managed to capture. Thank you very much for watching 🙂👍Paul
Beautiful boat ride Paul, can't get over the colour of the water. Imagine living on one of those lakeside homes, amazing. As someone who works in the railway industry, it's cool to see trains in other countries. This is slightly more scenic than the London Bridge - East Grinstead line. I'm sure Nick and Jill will appreciate the mention. Amazing views up there! I've seen uglier mushes mate 😂 wish I had that attitude towards food, my waistline wishes it too 😂 that looked like a pretzel to me! Lovely day out mate! Shame about the crying baby but not much you can do about that (bring earplugs 😂)
Hi Matt, this was an awesome few hours out and one to make me feel glad I started vlogging my travels. The Schafberg cog railway was pretty cool and pretty scenic but the views got even better at the top. I sure got super lucky with the weather and I have to say I'm not a fan of pretzels. I think it had a years supply of my salt intake in that single pretzel. The crying baby was a small price to pay for a super day. Thank you very much for watching. Have a great week ahead 🙂👍Paul
Quite some dramatic intro music. The train looked really cool. Reminds me of our trip to Rothorn, where they have a similar train. It also is a steam powered one. At the Rothorn train, it is really hard to get a ticket for the way up, but down is usually fine.The view down to the lake very much reminds of of the same trip. It is very similar in beauty. Your dangerous drop at the edge... That looked pretty much like a hiking path :D. Even red-white, not even blue-white. Speaks to the tourists making their way up to the summit on the train. Very beautiful place.
well hopefully the intro works. The Schafberg cog railway was pretty cool and I had no problems getting a ride up or down. I hope to visit Switzerland some time in the next year or 2. Maybe I will give you a shout if and when I do. I think the dangerous drop was over played a little but I suspect not your usual hikers check it out so a warning to those. The climb up to Spinnerin later on was a little more dicey but still not too bad. This was the type of day that made me feel glad I started vlogging my travels with those views. Thank you very much for watching 🙂👍Paul
@@TheHikingHermit sure. Let us know. At the minimum we might be able to give you a few tips on great hikes. You do have our instagram and we also have a contact email in our channel. Plenty of opportunities to reach us
Such a wonderful presentation 👏 thanks for sharing 😊
This whole series has made me realise how beautiful this region is. I have only been to Austria in the winter (skiing when I was much younger) but the lakes and mountains are clearly spectacular during the summer. Thanks for sharing, Paul.
Hi Andy, I still have one or 2 videos up my sleeve from the trip as well. I was spoiled pretty much on the whole trip for views. An amazing trip. It's days like this one makes me glad I started vlogging. I'm glad you enjoyed the views I managed to capture. Thank you very much for watching 🙂👍Paul
It's a pretzel Paul 😁 it's called a soft pretzel! 🤣 had to stop and let you know before the ending!
I'll return at the end😉
Hi Donna, you mean it's not called a stodgy bread thing 😂Now you know what I was on about when I said your chocolate pretzel looked and was more tasty than the one I had. I think mine had a years supply of my salt intake in it 😂
Wow!!! What a great tour, breathtaking views from the top😍😍😍
I'm so glad you enjoyed the captured views. It was an awesome day out. Thank you very much for taking time to watch. Have a great week 👍🙂Paul
Wow. I just couldn't stop saying wow all the way through this video, and I don't just mean the Gin Pit T-shirt 🤣😆though it was good to see it got an outing haha. Were you driving that train Paul ? cos that other guy sure didn't seem to be doing much & was defo hands free !! But then the real stunning views came, and then there were more, and then even more ... fabulous. every turn there was an awesome vista with a different feature to make the perfect shot. Oh I'll have to check out the GenX video too 😃Looked like it was a great choice to head out onto that final hill. I was on the edge of my seat though I'd guessed you hadn't fallen off !! Not normally a fan of trains on mountains but if I ever get the chance to go to this area I'd be on this one like a shot. Another fantastic video Paul .. husky voice worked well too though maybe needed another beer 😄Well done another winner 👍
Hi Christine, I did spoil the views with the Gin Pit tshirt on occasion 😂 The guy you saw wasn't driving the train as the engine was on the back 🙂 It's not like me to go on trains but when time is short it's got to be done and this sure was worth doing. The views from the Schafberg mountain were amazing in all directions. Oh yeah that climb up to Spinnerin was quite steep in places and got the adrenaline going a bit. I'm not sure where the husky voice came from ha ha. I had a few beers back at the ranch in Salzburg. I'm glad you enjoyed the captured views from this day trip from Salzburg. Thank you very much for watching. 🙂👍Paul
The views Paul are stunning, wow. Truly wonderful to see 😊

does your shirt say gin pit? 😂ok, i googled and now i see it's not necessarily describing you but a place. 🤣 i think i would have enjoyed just the ferry ride alone, but i loved the train ride. such dramatic music! the driver looked thrilled. 🤭the word i keep thinking for this scenery is luscious with the rich greens and the blue skies and water. do you ever get nervous walking on these steep bits while carrying the camera? any close calls you've never shared? gorgeous place paul!!! sending you my best🛴❤
Hi Anne, it sure does say Gin Pit 😂Yes it's an old coal mine near where I live and there's a 5 mile running race named after it. I'm not an alchy...honest 😜The ferry ride was quite fabulous and the Schafberg cog train ride was superb but the views at the top were amazing. The steep bits do get the adrenaline going but I don't take undue risks. If I think it's very risky I put the camera away and have done on a few occasions. Thankfully I've not had any what you would call a close call. I'm glad you enjoyed the lake views and the rich greens of Summer. Thank you so much for taking time to watch 👍🙂 Paul
Amazing video I am surprised!
I've reviewed your RUclips channel and see room for improvement.
Do you want to grow your channel?
Amazing video ..keep going and please can you tell me what is the camera type used ??
I'm so glad you enjoyed it. I'm using a GoPro 11 doing 4k captures and 60fps.
Thanks heaps for your brilliant shots of the amazing landscapes I'll be visting in June, weather permitting.
I am over seventy, can well relate to your diatry needs and phisically unable to walk to the best spots on Schafberg.
Could you suggest a spot near the train station where I can fly my drone without bothering anybody?
Cheers, Rolf from Australia.
Hi Rolf, I'm so glad you enjoyed the video and the captured views. It sure was an awesome day out. I'd say the best spot for a drone where it's quiet is to walk in the opposite direction from the hotel and towards the tunnel. The walk is pretty flat and will take you to a flat outcropping after about 10 minutes of walking. You can see this walk and the outcropping I speak of from around 22 to 23 minutes on the video. The crowds tend to stick around at the hotel and restaurants which is actually harder to walk to from the train station. I hope that helps and also hope you get great weather on your visit. Cheers, Paul
@@TheHikingHermit Thanks Paul for the most useful information. I'll let you know if get a good slow 360 degree pan from there. Cheers.
No worries Rolf. Always happy to assist if I can. You will have to let me know how you get on. I'm sure you will have a fabulous time though
Do they have luggage storage for suitcases?
I'm assuming you mean to leave whilst you go up the Schafberg on the cog railway. I'm not sure they have any storage for suitcases. However there might be some provision as there is a hotel on the Schafberg mountain. I'd email/call them to ask and if you get no joy perhaps email/call the hotel on the Schafberg mountain to see if they will store it. Sorry I couldn't give you a definitive answer but I hope that helps, Paul
