Saalachspitz

  • Starting point // Wals - Siezenheim

You start your cycle tour in Grünau along the Saalach. Along the Saalach, the cycle path leads downstream to the city of Salzburg. You follow the cycle path to the Saalachspitz, where the Saalach and Salzach rivers meet. The idyllic riverbank invites you to take a short break. If you continue towards the city centre for about a kilometre, you will pass the Salzachsee lake. The bathing lake is ideal for cooling off. From here, the route returns to the original cycle path along the Saalach back to the starting point. However, if you continue along the Salzach, you reach the Mozart city of Salzburg. Once you arrive at Ferdinand-Hanusch-Platz, push your bike through the world-famous Getreidegasse to reach the Salzburg Festival (Hofstallgasse). From there, the cycle path takes you back to Wals-Siezenheim.

At the Laschenskyhof farm, turn left until the junction to the right into the Glansiedlung housing estate. Cycle directly to the Glan (stream) and cross the bridge. Once you have crossed the bridge, immediately turn left and cycle along the cycle path to the Stiegl brewery in Salzburg. Shortly after the Stiegl brewery you come to a crossroads, which you cross and continue straight ahead until you come to the cycle lane marked on the right. Continue along Maxglaner Hauptstraße until you reach the Neutor. At the traffic lights after Neutor, turn right into Hofstallgasse, where you can park your bike in several places.

Approx. 150m after the railway tracks, the cycle path leads left along the road towards Pidinger Au. Shortly before the tracks, the salt trade route continues after the gravel road until you cross a small stream just before the motorway bridge. This path takes you through the Pidinger Au to the Staufenbrücke bridge. Here you follow the cycle path upstream on the right-hand side as far as Nonn. From here it is a short downhill stretch to Karlstein, where you join the cycle path to Lake Thumsee. Another 2 km uphill along the cycle path and you have reached your destination. You can either return via the same route or take the cycle path to Bad Reichenhall. At the Saalach bridge, the cycle path leads downstream through the Marzoller Au to Schwarzbach.

At the next junction shortly after the railway tracks, turn left towards Piding. Follow the cycle path directly into the village of Piding. Cycle through the village, exit in the direction of Anger and continue along the marked cycle route through Aufham to Anger, directly to the car park on Scheiterstraße. Follow this road and after 100 metres you will pass a wood processing company on the left. Then cross a bridge along the still tarmac road. After a while, the road changes into a good farm track. The route continues slightly uphill through the forest. The river Ache flows to our right. From the cattle gate onwards, the last ascent is quite demanding in terms of fitness. The last 200 metres take you across the pastureland of the Stoisser Alm in the sun.
