Made
famous by the film the Sound of Music, the Salzkammergut and
Trumer Lake district have remained virtually unchanged since
this classic film. Beautiful alpine hamlets (with their wonderful
window boxes of flowers), medieval towns, pristine lakes and
towering mountains are the backdrop for some leisurely cycling
as many of the film’s locations are explored.
The tour starts and finishes in the stunning UNESCO World
Heritage city of Salzurg, birthplace of Wolfgang Amedeus Mozart.
We leave the city and meander along cycle paths and quiet
country lanes as we take in the unspoilt beauty of ten of
the pristine lakes that make up the Salzkammergut. Highlights
include a boat rip across the Attersee (largest of the lakes)
and a chance to visit the famous Kaiservilla in Bad Ischl.
A traditional Austrian picnic of local produce at a lovely
old farmhouse washed down with homemade cider, sums up the
relaxed nature of the cycling.
We run both group and self guided tours on this route.
