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.
