From lake to lake by bike to explore the Salzkammergut. – sounds fantastic, doesn’t it? It is! Dip your toes in the crystal-clear water or jump right in, cooling off is guaranteed. This tour has a lot more to offer, in addition to the beauty of the region, it is also possible to immerse yourself in the history. Come with us on a journey to the origins of Mozart, Empress Sissi and the ‘Weißen Rössel’.

It starts in the UNESCO World Heritage city of Salzburg, where you can, for example, dare to climb from the cathedral to the Hohensalzburg Fortress. Enjoy a plate of the famous Salzburger Nockerl before heading off to Mondsee on day to and the Wolfgangsee on day 3.

The final stage is peppered with highlights. First you cycle along the south bank of the Attersee. Walk in the footsteps of Empress Sissi in the imperial town of Bad Ischl. Tip: For those with a sweet tooth, a visit to Hofzuckerbäckerei Zauner for a mélange and pastries is recommended. Finally, you need some strength for the last stage destinationa long the Wolfgangsee.

  • Getreidegasse in Salzburg: Let yourself be captivated by the magic of Salzburg’s old town. Visit the lively Getreidegasse with its numerous chic boutiques and, of course, the birthplace of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Take a very good look at the magnificent architecture of the houses.
  • The turquoise green Attersee: Did you know? The largest lake located entirely in Austria, reaches 169 metres down to the bottom at its deepest point. That makes it a paradise for divers. Due to the beautiful location it casts its spell over those looking for relaxation – will you be one of them?
  • The World Heritage Site of Hallstatt is definitely worth a visit. Due to the idyllic location on the lake of the same name and the special architecture, Hallstatt has become world famous. The small village has a long to offer – from the oldest salt mine in the world to the ossuary.
  • The panorama from the Schafberg over the Wolfgangsee: Whether on foot or with the steepest cogwheel railway in Austria – the view from the 1,783-metre-high Schafberg is worth the trip. Once at the top, the ‘Himmelspforte’ invites you to rest.

Flat cycle paths along the lakes and rivers alternate here with hilly routes that require a bit of stamina. The stages are between 40 and 50 kilometres per day, which are mainly to be completed on quiet side streets and cycle paths.
