Tauernradweg
The Tauern cycle route offers all the beauty of Austria over a distance of around 300 km: mountains, lakes, rivers – and the cultural metropolis of Salzburg.
The UNESCO World Heritage town of Salzburg lies in the midst of Austria's most beautiful landscapes. Sporty and active people can easily combine a visit to the world-famous sights with the long-distance cycle route from the Hohe Tauern mountain range and enjoy the proximity of the town and the mountains up close.
The Tauern cycle route begins in the Hohe Tauern National Park, where the Krimml waterfalls and Zeller See lake provide the first cool refreshment. It continues along the Salzach river to the Mozart town. Here you have a choice: either you return to Zell am See via Lofer or continue along the Salzach and the Inn rivers to Passau in Bavaria.
