Cycle path in Oberndorf along the Salzach

Discovering ten lakes in a week might sound challenging at first, but actually it's quite the opposite! The family bike tour through the Salzburg Lake District provides the perfect mix of an active vacation, delightful swims, and moments of relaxation. Every break along the tour becomes a revitalizing experience, thanks to the crystal-clear lakes boasting drinking water quality and the captivating moor lakes. Lakeside beaches offer entertaining activities for families and children. As you journey along the route, you'll encounter one highlight after another – charming locations and enjoyable experiences, all set against a backdrop of lush green meadows and majestic mountains.

Eurobike ensures you won't miss out on any experiences during your family bike tour through the Salzburg Lake District. Throughout the entire week, the objective is to uncover something new each day, creating lasting memories to fill your family album. Whether it's a leisurely city stroll, a scenic ride on the local train, or a shared climbing adventure, there's something for everyone. The adventure kicks off in the Mozart City of Salzburg, leading you along the Salzach River, through forests, nature reserves, past lush green meadows, and, of course, to the ten picturesque lakes.

  • Welcome to the city of Mozart: Sachertorte, Mozartkugel chocolate, sightseeing, shopping, or cultural programs – in Salzburg, family enjoyment is certainly not in short supply!
  • Christmas magic in summer: Correctly read! Anyone visiting Oberndorf cannot escape one thing: the world's most famous Christmas carol, "Silent Night, Holy Night," which originated in the small town on the Salzach River not far from Salzburg.
  • Calling all climbing enthusiasts! At the high ropes park in Seeham, a head for heights is required. Those who are brave enough can climb up to 35 meters high. Mastering the various challenging climbing courses is a highlight for both children and adults – quite literally in every sense of the word.
  • Salzburg Lake District Card: With the Seenland Card in your luggage, your family is guaranteed numerous benefits, such as discounted admission to various facilities and complimentary access to swimming & bathing areas.

Two wheels, seven days, 175 kilometers, ten lakes, and countless family experiences in nature. Plus, enjoy free entry to lakeside beaches and other attractions, comprehensive travel documents, half-board, luggage transfer, and well-thought-out routes on family-friendly bike paths. This is what the package looks like for your unforgettable active vacation in the Austrian lake paradise.

Hotel example: Hotel Goldenes Theater

After a short ride by regional railway, you autonomously start your family tour full of beans in Oberndorf (exercised cyclists can take already the bike to cycle to Oberndorf), birthplace of the most famous Christmas carol ever: ‚Silent Night’. Then onwards along the lovely babbling river Salzach into the diverse nature of Austria’s largest moor area: here the warm lakes Höllerersee and Holzöstersee with lido for families await. Just like a little Garden of Eden.

Hotel example: Seewirt Franking

After a swim in the wonderful warm moorland lake, come and join the funny “Wanderbauerngolf”- a special kind of miniature golf along funny walking paths, played with wooden bats. Alternatively you can also go for another cycling tour along the river Salzach to Burghausen, a beautiful city with its very charming old town.

Hotel example: Seewirt Franking

Here in the nature reserve, time seems to stand still. You cycle past the animal paradise to Michaelbeuern and from there into the Trumer-Lake district with its three crystal clear lakes, Lake Obertrumer See, Lake Mattsee and Lake Grabensee. This is the best place to cool off, have fun and relax in the glistening water after your cycling tour.

Hotel example: Hotel Walkner

A cool jump into the water? Not just one but three massive lidos (entrance fee included) await you. Try the slide or the raft, this place has a lot to offer. However, this is not all yet: you can experience the areal adventure in the high rope course and swing as high as 35 metres (not opened daily). Or you do a short cycle tour along the Obertrumer See – Bathing stop inclusive.

Hotel example: Hotel Walkner

You cycle along the awesome lake “Wallersee“ with its beautiful lidos to Seekirchen and further to Eugendorf. From there you bike along the old „Ischler Bahntrasse, a shutdown train path, to the city of Mozart: Salzburg.  Now is the time to visit all the lovely attractions of one of the most beautiful cities in Europe.
