Cycling holiday in the Salzburg lake region

Destination for enjoyable cycling: Salzburger Land / Austria

Back to overview

Cycling in the Salzburg Lake District

Four lakes, rolling hills, the mountain panorama in the distance: the Salzburg Lake District velodrome is the Austrian hotspot for leisure cyclists.

Not far from the world-famous Mozart city of Salzburg, nature offers many opportunities to experience an unforgettable holiday. The gentle landscape of the foothills of the Alps with Wallersee, Mattsee, Grabensee and Obertrumer See lakes makes for varied cycling tours.

600 km of cycle paths under one roof

With its 17 elaborate routes, the Salzburg Seeland did not get its nickname "Velodrom" for nothing: Like a large cycle race track, only slightly larger and surrounded by meadows with grazing cows, charming farms and small villages. The hilly landscape and warm lakes are a popular attraction for many recreational athletes and holidaymakers in summer.

When it comes to culinary delights, the region in Salzburger Land leaves nothing to be desired. The freshly caught fish from the lakes, the home-grown fruit and vegetables or the milk from the cows on the doorstep - here the basis for a valuable regional cuisine is just right!

Pleasure bike tours in the Salzburg Lake District

Cycle & discover

Cycling pleasure through the Salzburg Lake District can be wonderfully combined with a visit to special excursion destinations:

At the Fahr(t)raum in Mattsee, everything revolves around the automotive pioneer Ferdinand Porsche and his innovative technology. In addition to the unique exhibition with its many test stations, there are also some beautiful vintage cars available for a chauffeur-driven drive through the Salzburg Lake District from spring to autumn.

A stop at the BioArt Campus in Seeham invites you to savour organic products and traditional craftsmanship. We recommend a visit to the "Ois Hondgemocht" exhibition!

Oberndorf near Salzburg with the Silent Night Chapel is also worth a stopover: the famous Christmas carol "Silent Night, Holy Night" was first performed here in 1818.

The city of Salzburg, with its famous summer festival, is just a stone's throw away and easy to reach by bike.
