Q&A
Where are you celebrating?
Fun fact: Ulli's apartment is less than 300 meters away.
Address:
Putterer Schlössl
Aigen 19
8943 Aigen im Ennstal
Austria
How do we get to Aigen im Ennstal?
By car, it's about 3.5 - 4 hours from Innsbruck (depending on traffic). However, experience has shown that the navigation system will show you the fastest route very reliably. We recommend either the highway via Germany or the route via Zell am See.
There is a direct train from Innsbruck at least once a day. This stops in Stainach-Irdning. From there it is another 10 minutes by car to the wedding location. The same applies if you get there via Vienna or Salzburg.
For the more motivated among you, there is also the option of covering parts of the journey by bike (e.g. from Radstadt). More about the cycle path here. The Enns Valley is perfect for a bike tour and certainly shows its most beautiful side in August.
Can someone give me a ride or pick me up?
If you are arriving by train, please let us know your arrival time so that we can organize transport.
Where can we stay overnight?
Families with children are prioritized when allocating rooms. Depending on how many people are staying at the Schlössl, not all rooms will be fully occupied. We will make a suggestion for room allocation and consult with you before anything is finalized.
Cost contribution for adults: € 25.00 per night incl. breakfast in a shared room. That also includes admission to the lake.
We also have a parking lot available. If you would like to stay there with a camper/van, please let us know in the confirmation survey.
Further accommodation nearby:
- Campingplatz Aigen im Ennstal (2 km) with huts and camping pods

If you prefer not to stay at the Schlössl but at one of those alternative accommodations, please take care of your own reservation. Aigen is very popular in summer, so we recommend booking early. Please note the distance to the Putterer Schlössl when booking. Cabs are rarely available, especially at night.

If you would like to spend more time in Aigen, we can recommend the following activities:
- A visit at the Putterersee (admission is included for overnight guests at the Schlössl and Puttererseehof for the entire weekend) for swimming, jumping from the 4-meter tower, a boat tour, fishing, trampoline jumping or beach volleyball. Here is a 13-year-old video of the lake ... nothing has really changed.

- a visit to the Grimming thermal baths (in case the weather will be bad).
- a visit to the village of Pürgg. On a plateau opposite the mighty Grimming lies the village of Pürgg, once lovingly described by Peter Rosegger as the “crib of Styria”. Be sure to stop by for a coffee or lunch at Gasthaus Krenn (book in advance!).

Should we bring our kids?
