The Wolfgangsee Schifffahrt has been running passenger boats on the Wolfgangsee since 1873, and the boat is the best way to arrive at St. Wolfgang. The service connects St. Gilgen at the western end of the lake with St. Wolfgang and Strobl, running on a scheduled timetable from May to early November. The crossing from Strobl to St. Wolfgang takes 25 minutes; the full run from St. Gilgen to Strobl is about 90 minutes with stops. Boat travel here is not a novelty added for tourists: the lake was the original transport connection between the villages before roads were built, and the service continues that function. Check the current timetable and fares at the official website. St. Gilgen is 45 minutes by bus from Salzburg and is the most convenient starting point if you are coming from the Salzburg direction.
