View of Salzburg

Highlight • Viewpoint

Here you have a beautiful view of Salzburg. From Gersberg, the Lambergsteig leads directly to the Nockstein and further to Koppl. A marked Alpine Club trail runs along the northern flank of the Gersberg up to the Gaisberg plateau, although surefootedness is required on the alpine trail, which zigzags through the steep terrain.

An interesting experience the paragliders as the paragliders rise only with the help of the wind in front of an impressive backdrop in the air.
Please keep the terrain clear during flight operations and keep the appropriate safety distance in each case.

Kohlmayr's Gaisbergspitz Mountain Inn

Highlight • Mountain Hut

A tavern and alpine hut all in one. It's wonderful to sit in the sun in front of the hut and enjoy cheese dumpling soup with a good drink. The Gaisberg, the perfect local recreation area for the city of Salzburg, is best explored on foot or by bike. Leave the car at home.
