THE.RIVERWAVE is an innovative and unique surfing experience located in the beautiful Salzkammergut region of Austria. Unlike traditional ocean surfing, it offers the thrill of riding a "standing wave" on a river. Surfers can experience the sport without the need for the sea, using the natural flow of the Traun River to generate waves that mimic ocean conditions. This special location, powered by advanced hydraulic technology, guarantees an exciting adventure for both beginners and experienced surfers alike.
The wave is created in a 140-meter channel along the Traun River, where two steel flaps are driven hydraulically to generate the perfect wave. This setup allows the wave to be adjusted based on the surfer's skill level, ensuring that everyone can have a great time. With its size and construction, THE.RIVERWAVE stands out globally as a one-of-a-kind surfing facility.
Visitors can surf for up to 300 days a year, depending on water levels, and enjoy facilities such as a kiosk with food and drinks, a large grassy area, toilets, and a playground for kids. Surfers can purchase day tickets or annual passes, with easy access to the wave once they have their tickets. Whether you're looking for a fun session with friends or a professional surf course, THE.RIVERWAVE has everything you need to make your surfing dreams a reality.
