Arrival in Krimml
Arrive in Krimml and move into your accommodation. The rental bikes (if booked) are in your hotel. From afar, you can spot them and marvel: the Krimml waterfalls! But don’t let that suffice, make sure you go and pay a visit to the largest waterfalls in Europe. Water crashes down about 400m. Walk along the path and admire the natural spectacle.
Hotel (example): Klockerhaus
Hotel (example): Flatscher
Your tour goes through the „Nationalpark Hohe Tauern“ and „Oberpinzgau“. On this trail you will have a fabulous backdrop with lush green meadows and small villages. The landscape will remind you on some fairy tales! In Kaprun you can visit the “Hochgebirgsstauseen” (high-mountain reservoir).
Hotel (example): Martini
The Zeller Lake invites for a refreshment, and the sportive cyclers can add an extra round. You will cycle through “Maria Alm” with its famous pilgrimage church and soon reach Saalfelden.
Hotel (example): Die Hindenburg
On your way to Lofer you will be impressed by the unspoilt nature. You will get a view of the “Steinernes Meer” and you will be entirely surrounded by mountains, which steeply ascend. It looks like something out of Middle Earth. Take time to visit the Seisenbergklamm as well as the Lamprechtshöhlen (caves) before you reach Unken.
Hotel (example): Kirchenwirt
Only a short distance and you will have reached Salzburg, the city of Mozart. The cultural offer will embrace you. You should allow yourself enough extra time for a stroll through the city and a visit to Mozart´s birth house.
Hotel (example): Ganslhof
Departure or extension
Your cycle tour ends today in the wonderful city of Salzburg. There is a lot to see: the famous water games, the large zoo or the great cafes in the centre of town. Why not spend a few more days here in Salzburg?
Tour character
The Tauern cycle path is well-signed and runs along quiet, tarmac cycle paths and small roads. Only rarely do you go on slightly busier roads. Very good quality paths and hardly any hills.
