A fairytale city

The mighty, restored Salzburger Dom is an impressive, imposing building that’ll catch your eye. It’s one of Salzburg’s most fascinating landmarks, along with Hohensalzburg Castle, perched on the hill. The beauty of Hellbrunn Palace is not to be missed either – it’s even got a zoo within the grounds!

Slopes for everyone

Let Salzburg be your gateway for a piste of all the action! Some of the most popular resorts include Kaprun, Mayrhofen and Obertauern, where slopes for beginners, mid-level skiers and pros are ready and waiting. You’ll even have access to great snow parks, and an après-ski scene filled with wine and fondue.

The hills are alive with…

Hiking, mountain biking, snowshoeing, kayaking, skiing – you can enjoy the whole package in Salzburg. Active adventures are easy to put on your agenda, thanks to the surrounding mountain range and lakes. Roaming around the countryside that was made famous by the Sound of Music is a real bonus.
