With some great road trip options in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it wouldn’t be half as easy to soak up all that Steyr, 18 miles away, has to offer. Among your first few stops here should be Lamberg Castle, Steyr City Museum and Red Fountain. Mariazell is another great option. It’s 30 miles away and has a variety of awesome things to see and do. Mariazell Basilica, Niederalpl Ski Resort and Hofstatt Sessellift are only the start.
