Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The path along the Saalach is really developed. From Vorderglemm towards Zell am See almost everything is asphalted.

July 5, 2024,Saalbach nach Zell am See

Today's tour took us along the Glemmtal cycle path from Saalbach to Zell am See. The way there was pleasant and relaxed, as it was slightly downhill. When we arrived at the lake, we decided to cycle around the lake clockwise. That was a good choice, as the east side is rather unspectacular and not very appealing to cycle on. …

On the Glemmtaler cycle path to Zell am See. Since we always drove along the mountain stream and still in the shade, it was extremely cold in the morning 🥶. But then pure sun.

I drove along the Saalach to Hinterglemm. A rather unspectacular route but the constant rushing water was very nice.
Then I circled the Zellersee and a little extra round through the protected area south of the lake.
It was incredibly hot at the end. But that was probably everywhere today.

Saalbach is very expensive in terms of restaurants. There is nothing here for less than €16. We had a chicken burger for €15.20 without fries. Wanted and share one together. Chicken breast was dry and overcooked, have complained and was improved. But the portion was just enough for one person, not as we know it from us. It was all …
