Gisela, Review
From Gmunden, take a lake trip on the Gisela, built in 1872, the oldest coal-fired steam side-wheeler running anywhere. It carried Emperor Franz Josef in the last century and is now restored. The boat route crisscrosses the whole 12-km (7-mi) length of the lake.
For departure times, check with Traunseeschiffahrt Eder. 07612/66700. www.traunseeschifffahrt.at.
