The Mozart city of Salzburg is the start and finish of the classic route on the Tauern Cycle Path. On slightly hilly, family-friendly cycle paths along the Salzach and Saalach, the beauties and magic of the Salzburg region open up to you. The masses of water from the Krimml Waterfalls tumble roaring down while Lake Zell invites you to jump into the cool water. The Hohenwerfen Fortress towers mightily high above the cycle path, while the Hohensalzburg Fortress offers a magnificent view over the city.
Check-in at your hotel in Salzburg, handover of travel documents for the Tauern Cycle Path and issue of bikes (when booking our rental bikes). Explore the world-famous old town of Salzburg, Mozart's birthplace, Hohensalzburg Fortress and Mirabell Palace. Visit the extravagant Hangar-7 with its numerous historic airplanes and racing cars.
