Cycle the 10 Lakes Around Salzburg, Austria

 

What could be more enjoyable with your family than biking along the lake side cycling paths of the lakes surrounding Salzburg, Austia. Let your soul “float” through the astonishingly unspoiled countryside. Everyone will enjoy this tour through the “Salzkammergut” and the Trumer-Lake-Land areas.

Locals are very proud of the fact that the water from all of the lakes in this area is considered drinking water. The regional landscape is made up of rolling hills and has a charm of its own. During our journey, we will meander through areas of lush green meadows, mighty woods and jagged rocks. You will not believe your own eyes and others will think your photos are copies from the postcard stand. Add on a day or two in Salzburg, Austria and Munich, Germany  More Info
