Hallstatt has two official photo spots marked on Google Maps. One of them is the Hallstatt Viewpoint (Aussichtspunkt Hallstatt), which is free to visit. However, it can get very crowded (there are even signs asking people to be quiet and watch out for pickpockets). You can't miss this spot if you want to take postcard-perfect photos.

The travel time between Salzburg and Hallstatt is about 2 to 2.5 hours one way by combining train and bus or just train. You can visit as a day trip from Salzburg, so it's highly recommended.

With a light layer of snow, the snow-capped mountains towering behind the lake and buildings make the scenery of this town even more magnificent.

Most of the tourists have tried to cover Hallstatt in a day. In my opinion, it is very rush and not even enough to cover all the “must see” attractions in Hallstatt. Let alone, enjoying a cup of coffee and relax by the lakeside. Some tourists have done it in 2D1N, it is also barely enough imo. I’ve personally spent 3D2N there. I’ve covered most of the attractions including hiking and reading story book on the bench while seeping my coffee beside the lake. It is really therapeutic and relaxing. I am fully recharged after my trip to Hallstatt. I was also able to enjoy my dinners in Hallstatt, not many have a chance to do so since they are gone by early evening. Highly recommended to spend more time in Hallstatt!
