In the Gneis district there is an artificially created wave in the historic Almkanal. The spot is right on the bike path from Gneiss to Eichet. The wave has existed since 2010 and was built by the City of Salzburg. Since then, a small surfing scene has developed around the spot. Since the wave runs practically all year round, you can surf there in all seasons.
