Salzkammergut, Chiemgau and Tyrol. These three
regions along the Austrian-German border dazzle with stunning landscapes,
verdant Alpine pastures, meadows filled with wildflowers, crisp clean
air and refreshing lakes. They are also popular vacation destinations
and have an abundance of small roads perfect for bicycling. The lively
city of Salzburg, hometown to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, offers an outstanding
base from which to explore these regions. The Mozart Bicycle Trail connects
Salzburg with the three famous regions and leads to many of the places
that figured in the life of the 18th century musical genius: St. Gilgen
on the Wolfgangssee, the Chiemsee, Waging and Wasserburg on the river
Inn, to name just a few of the places where Mozart spent time. May a bicycle
tour through Mozart’s backyard be as relaxing as he found them to
be in his lifetime! |
