Cycling day trip from Lamprechtshausen to Salzburg

This scenic ride starts in the charming village of Lamprechtshausen, known for its peaceful countryside vibes and proximity to the beautiful Salzach River. From here, you’ll make your way south toward the historic city of Salzburg—a city famous as Mozart’s birthplace and the breathtaking backdrop for The Sound of Music.

The route is just over 33 km and is mostly paved, with plenty of smooth asphalt and a few stretches on quiet country roads and dedicated cycle paths. With gentle ascents and descents (nothing too steep!), this ride is perfect for most cyclists looking for exercise and great scenery.

Along the way, you’ll pedal past lush fields and sleepy hamlets, and maybe catch a glimpse of the Alps in the distance. The closer you get to Salzburg, the more you’ll notice the urban energy picking up. Salzburg greets you with its iconic skyline: the fortress, baroque domes, and lively riverbanks—a perfect spot to end your ride and grab a coffee!
