Fresh alpine air, scenic strolls and hearty Tyrolean cuisine – holidays to Soll couldn't get more blissful if they tried.

A taste of Tyrol

Sitting just shy of the German border amid north Austria's Wilder Kaiser Mountains, Soll's a treat all year round. In winter, locals hit the nearby slopes, then warm up with a glass of Tyrolean schnapps. Come summer, there are plenty of hiking trails and festivals to keep visitors on their toes.

Great outdoors

Drive south to the Salzburg region and you'll find Hohe Tauern National Park – the biggest conservation area in the Alps. It's enormous, but you can reach the thundering Krimml Waterfalls in 90 minutes. As you wander through flower-filled meadows and alpine forests, keep your eyes peeled for resident marmots, ibex and golden eagles.

Local folklore

Traditional Tyrolean architecture gives Soll its fairy tale feel – think frescoed houses with pine-wood balconies. For a taste of age-old customs, dance alongside locals to live folk music out in the open air. You may even see a few toe-tappers and thigh-slappers wearing traditional lederhosen.

Top things to see and do in Soll

In the centre of the village you’ll find the Ahornsee bathing lake. It reaches depths of 11m and spans 10,000m², which is quite small compared to other lakes in the area. It’s a pretty spot to cool off in the summer sun.

Ahornsee lake is sandwiched between the Wilder Kaiser mountains and the Hohe Salve. Aside from being picture-perfect, the bathing lake blends relaxation with fun – in the form of a diving board. In winter, the lake serves as a snow-making reservoir for Hochsöll.

This bathing lake has four jetties, shower areas, a children’s play space, refreshment kiosk and deckchairs with parasols. It’s great for a laidback day by the water, whether you’re visiting with family or friends, or are just looking for a peaceful dip after a hike.

For some local bargains, don't miss the Z'sammkemma on Wednesdays. It's a market and festive evening rolled into one, so you can try some food specialities and browse the stalls of craftsmen who come to present their work.

Söll has a smattering of sports shops where you can find a mix of activewear and casual gear.

Get a feel for authentic Austrian culture at the Söller Freitag. Every Friday evening at 6:30pm, bop along to the live music and tuck into a variety of great local dishes.

As Söll is pedestrianised, pottering around on foot is a wonderful way to spend a quiet evening – window-shop, people-watch and snap some evening holiday photos.

Söll is proud of the local ingredients – like honey, cheese, milk and even schnapps – that originate from the numerous local farmers in the area. From these ingredients, delicious specialities like the sweet germknödel with poppy seeds and butter are born – definitely a must-have while you're here. When it comes to eating out, you’ll find everything from small, casual eateries to fine-dining restaurants dotted around the resort, and even a couple of huts up in the mountains.

At the top of the main gondola is Gastof Hochsoll, a mountain restaurant with incredible views from its large outdoor terrace. Half the restaurant is self-service, while the other has table service – but both offer local favourites and homely classics.

In the centre of town is the popular Auf da Muhle, a large restaurant with excellent steaks and pizza and a lively atmosphere. There’s a large bull on the wall outside, if you need help finding it.

Just down the road is Schindelhaus, a popular and reasonably priced restaurant offering international cuisine. Whether it’s a burger or calzone, you’re guaranteed to receive some top-notch nosh.
