discovery and you will be amazed.
Sumer
in the mountains

will understand why the SalzburgerLand is the perfect destination for your vacation. The SalzburgerLand is also a region of lakes. No matter how young or old, when you take a dip in one of
our clear lakes - be that the Wolfgangsee, Fuschlsee, Wallersee, Zeller See or Trumer lakes –
you are guaranteed to feel on top of the world. Unforgettable times, walking and shopping in
Salzburg City, sitting in one of the traditional coffee shops – wonderful moments and memorable vacations await you during a Salzburg summer.
Alpine Wellness
Alpine Wellness Hotels are extraordinary oases of well-being in the midst of
the SalzburgerLand’s mountains. Their special alpine health & wellness programs are based on centuries-old knowledge. In addition to the ambience of
the hotels, food is a major factor in enhancing well-being. Which is why Salzburg specialties take their place alongside vegetarian, light and whole-foods
cuisine. When it comes to keeping in shape, the mountains are the world’s
biggest open-air fitness center.

An excursion through the SalzburgerLand
“A piece of paradise” – thus it was that
author, Carl Zuckmayer, described his
adopted homeland, the SalzburgerLand. If you know this region, you cannot fail to agree. This land is marked
by an imposing combination of mountains and lakes, rivers and forests,
pretty villages and prosperous cities.
Every region – from the Salzburg Lake
District to the Hohe Tauern National
Park – has something unique to offer.
Join us now on a short tour.
Beautiful countryside | The facts and figures are as attractive as they are impressive. With a population of only some
147,000, Salzburg has more than 4,000 cultural events per year
and some 20 baroque churches. The city‘s silhouette is unparalleled: Hohensalzburg Fortress, the baroque Cathedral, the Franciscan and Collegiate Church at the foot of the Mönchsberg and
the mighty, legendary Untersberg in the distance. A few of the
many “musts” on a visit to Salzburg are described below.
Splashing in the Water | Longing for the Lakes I 185 lakes
adorn the City of Salzburg’s environs, the Salzkammergut region,
the mountain valleys, and even the mountaintops themselves.
The summer sun turns many of them into colourful playgrounds
for all who long for fun in and around the water.
Nature | Nature & Conservation I So that nature can continue
to thrive unabated, many spots have set their focus squarely on
conservation efforts. The Hohe Tauern National Park – the largest in all the Alps – is but one example.

Gasteinertal
Three
multi-faceted
towns
The Gasteinertal Valley has three places with three
different characters. Bad Gastein pampers its guests
with complete comfort, unique Belle-Époque romance,
the flair of an internationally famous casino as well as
various cultural and entertainment possibilities.
In the sports-oriented and modern Bad Hofgastein,
guests find vitality and openness expressed in a
charming way at a place for leisure and relaxation in
the middle of the Gastein mountain area.
Dorfgastein is a symbol of mountain romanticism,
friendly habits, indigenous hospitality, fun, entertainment for whole family.
The richness of the Gasteinertal area goes back to
several centuries due to its gold mines. It became
famous worldwide because of the healing
thermal springs. Over
5 million litres of fresh
thermal water bubble up
each day from the healing springs of Gastein.
Rich with the natural element Radon, thermal water of Gastein has a vitalising effect on the human
organism and its ability of self-healing.
The combination of thermal water and the Alpine atmosphere makes
Gastein the Mecca for
nature-lovers and those
seeking relaxation. Even
dignitaries from the Arab
region like the Saudi
kings and Iran’s Shah
have known and valued
Gastein.

powerful prince archbishops is just as omnipresent in Salzburg
as a contemporary culture and convention program.

a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. The historic city center with its variety of structural styles is a rare architectural
treasure. Strolling through the narrow streets one can find buildings dating from the Middle Ages, the Romantic Age,
the Renaissance, Baroque and elegant, classic burgher houses from the monarchy in close proximity. No historical age
failed to leave its architectural mark on Salzburg. With a city so rich in visual attractions, guests are encouraged to

bustle. Whether you‘re coming to enjoy the culture, go shopping, take a stroll, stop at a café or simply spend a day in

baroque ambiance), and many other attractions.

once lived. Locations: Nonnberg Convent – Mirabell Gardens – Residenz

The SalzburgerLand is, without doubt, Austria’s premier
gourmet destination. Its exceptionally high density of
award-winning restaurants is the best proof of all. This
year, 65 restaurants in Salzburg city and state were recipients of 99 awards from the internationally renowned
Gault Millau Guide.
SalzburgerLand capital of culture
and fine dining
Salzburg brimming
with atmosphere
Salzburg is a town described by many names. “City of Mozart” is probably its best known.
The “Festival City” is its most prestigious. And for many it is the “Baroque City” – a city with
a splendid past, once ruled by powerful archbishops. It is the city of top-notch cultural events
and, at the same time, a city with an eye to the future, nestled in the heart of Europe.
A stroll down its Getreidegasse, a famous shopping street decorated with the signs of various
guilds, suffices to give you a sense of this city’s flair. Countless coffee shops between Mozart’s
birthplace and the Residenzplatz invite you to rest and savor the moment.

The
Kitzsteinhorn
Austria’s oldest glacier skiing region.
An eldorado for all snow-seeking sportsmen in winter, the ideal terrain
for hiking or climbing in summer: Kitzsteinhorn right in the middle of the
‘Europa-Sportregion Zell am See-Kaprun’ is a synonym of an active, but
relaxing holiday in the mountains. The skiing area on the glacier is now
celebrating its birthday. For 40 long years the ‘Gletscherbahnen Kaprun AG’
has been taking skiing fans, sun worshippers, and mountain lovers up to
the top of the mountain, up to a height of 3.029 metres.

Europa-Sportregion Zell am See – Kaprun
With 13,500 beds and two million overnight stays per year, the Europa-Sportregion
Zell am See - Kaprun is one of the most important tourism centres in Austria.
The right offer
for everyone.
Summer delights between valleys and mountains: There is a lot of action in the Europa-Sportregion. When the
temperatures rise, an entirely new summer world opens up among the mountains and valleys: there are all
sorts of things to be discovered by land, by water and by air. Schmittenhöhe and Kitzsteinhorn offer ideal conditions for hikes through the untouched countryside. The professional mountain guides of the area know all
the best paths like the back of their hands. Exploring the region by bike is another option for tourists. Twelve
different tours offer the right choice for everyone, from a leisurely ride along the ‚Romantikweg‘ cycle track to
the challenge of 80 kilometres of mountain roads up towards Grossglockner.
Windsurfing, sailing, diving or water skiing: when the sun is burning hot, Lake Zell provides a very welcome
cooling. Water sports experts hold special courses in which they teach interested tourists the right tricks and
techniques. The internationally recognized sailing licence, which can be acquired in the Europa-Sportregion,
enables its holders to sail always ‘close to the wind’. Rafting or kayaking is even more exciting than sailing. The
rapid currents of the Salzach and Saalach Rivers guarantee for lots of fun. All those who like things to move
a little more slowly, but still want to enjoy the cooling liquid, can go for a pleasure trip on the lake on one of
the boat of ‚Schmittenhöhebahn AG‘. And if you would like to be the skipper of your own small craft, there are
rowing or electric boats for hire.
The high-ropes-course guarantees a fair amount of thrills when you balance along some narrow beams or
climb ‘Jacob’s Ladder’ at a dizzy height. Canyoning is quite exciting, too. Gorges, water falls and rock pools turn
this trip into a wet, but wonderful pleasure. A glider or hang glider flight as part of an ‘active holiday’ will provide glorious views from high above the idyllic towns of Zell am See and Kaprun. A game of golf, on the other
hand, offers relaxation. The ball can either be holed in on the two renowned championship courses or, alternatively, across the loops and obstacles of one of the three miniature golf courses.
