Visited at the beginning of May and still in the morning, so with minimal people. We went up with the Schafbergbahn. We bought tickets online. The trip took about 30 minutes. Due to the remaining snow, we could not use the red route 04,18, E4, which we had originally chosen, for the descent. Finally, we went down route 04,20, E4 via the Schafbergalm to the village of Pucha. From there via Wolfgangweg and Wanderrouten Wolfgangsee to St. Wolfgang.
Beautiful views of the lake, the Dachstein and other peaks, flowery meadows, wild garlic plantations and much more.
Due to the time and date when we visited Schafberg, we did not stumble upon the crowds of tourists. On the contrary, we went the vast majority of the way alone.

I visited Schafberg in the mourning, but it was cloudy. So I had to wait until the sky is clear enough to enjoy the view from the top of the mountai. I killed time with walking, eating and drinking. 2 hours later, the sky got clear at last.
There is cafe on the top of the mountain. But it's expensive. I recommend you have something to eat.

With wonderful panoramic landscapes enhanced by the clear sunlight we very much enjoyed our time and walk on the mountain.
At over 1700 metres, the scenic vistas of the lake and multitude of Alpine peaks dissolving into the far distance were memorable.

You go to St Wolfgang then take the cog railway to the top. It is fun and beautiful. Breath taking view of the Austrian Alps and surrounding lakes.

If you are near Salzburg on a clear day, don’t miss the chance to visit the Schafberg area and the surrounding lakes and villages (also known as the Salzkammergut). The views are stunning. If you have time, take the Schafbergbahn (the train station is in Sankt Wolfgang) which takes you to a fabulous lookout to the top of Schafberg, high above several beautiful lakes.

Most unfriendly staff! Both by the train at the ticket check, and upstairs in the restaurant of the waiters! More than unfriendly...properly scolded for nullities but not a single courtesy! So come really just for the view... how can you hire such a staff???
