The Fidele Bauer (The Loyal Farmer) Has His Origins Here
Oberwang is the coldest and snowiest region of MondSeeLand. 30 km of cross-country ski routes connect it with the Attersee and provide a unique view of the mountains of the Salzkammergut such as the Schafberg, Höllengebirge and so on. The parish church in the village centre houses a lovely baroque altar by Guggenbichl. The Konrad church is a historical point and spiritual place consecrated to the blessed abbott Konrad.

Choose from a whole range of walking paths and hiking trails leading to the scenic Kulm area, the Kramer memorial statue or the Hochplettspitze peak. The town´s parish church, featuring the renowned Guggenbichler altar, and the Konradkirche church, founded by Prof. Lydia Roppolt, are always worth a visit!
