During the Advent season, the Salzburg Lake District transforms into a tranquil and romantic landscape. Fog rises in the twilight between the reed beds and lake meadows, the villages are lovingly illuminated and Advent also pervades the Ferdinand Porsche Experience World fahr(T)raum in Mattsee. Historical tin toys under the Christmas tree and the unique motorcycle exhibition between the splendid automobile specimens set the scene for the most peaceful time of the year.

The traditional Advent market organised by the fahr(T)raum experience world directly on the lake promenade on weekends invites you to come and enjoy. Combination offer for groups: Experience the combination of historical technology, the two lakes and traditional customs concerning herbs and incense.
The first highlight is the visit to fahr(T)raum. Afterwards the group strolls down to the anchorage of the electric cruise boat “Seenland”. At dusk the passenger ship glides silently over the Mattsee and Obertrum lakes on its way to Seeham. In the distance, the torches on the jetty light the way and the soft light shimmers over the water. A herb/fragrance/light pathway leads into the enchantingly-decorated organic village of Seeham. Scents and sounds pertaining to the traditions surrounding incense combine with contemplative Advent-oriented texts to impart calm and relaxation amid the Christmas hectic.

After refreshment with a traditional Advent hot beverage and Christmas pastries, we continue with torches along the pathway and then back to the boat´s mooring or on weekends. Back in Mattsee, one weekends with the bus, one can gleefully end the evening at the Advent market on the lakeside promenade.
