The Tauern Cycle Path is a long-distance cycle path that comes in two variants. Here you drive on a section of the variant that leads through the federal states of Salzburg and Upper Austria.

The well-developed cycle path runs along the Salzach here and you can enjoy the wonderful mountain scenery on the ride.

The 900-year-old Hohenwerfen Fortress lies in the midst of a fantastic mountain backdrop. As a former fortified castle, it towers high above the Salzburg Salzach Valley.

Great experiences and the popular bird of prey show make the stopover an enrichment for every bike tour!
