Summer in Köstendorf
The nearby Wallersee offers a variety of possibilities: whether swimming, sailing, boating, canadier or wind-surfing. The hiking trail around the Wallersee is also particularly popular. Along the shore there are picturesque villages and towns, which invite you to take a break with a view. Several biking trails also intersect in Köstendorf.
Winter in Köstendorf
When there is a thick blanket of snow covering the landscape around Köstendorf and the Wallersee freezes along its shores, the local nature can best be explored with a winter walk by the “Wenger Moor”. The nearby Advent markets invite you to a Christmas get-together.
The historic pilgrimage site of Köstendorf
Since the 18th Century, the decanat church of Köstendorf has been the destination for spiritual pilgrims who want to ask the Virgin Mary for advocacy. The Gothic church, built around 1500, was restored in the 18th Century and since then shines in its Baroque splendour. For those who are interested in local culture, the Köstendorfer Local History Museum is recommended.
