Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Salzbourg à Mondsee

Hop on your bike in the beautiful city of Salzburg—famous as Mozart’s birthplace and known for its baroque old town—then set out northeast toward Mondsee. This ride is about 38 kilometers, mostly on peaceful country roads and dedicated cycleways, making it perfect for soaking up Austria’s lush scenery without too much worry about traffic.

The journey weaves through charming villages, rolling farmland, and forested hills. You’ll get a moderate workout too, with a few climbs totaling nearly 500 meters of ascent, so expect a little burn in the legs before coasting down toward your finish.

Your destination, Mondsee, sits on the shores of the stunning lake of the same name, a popular spot for swimming and relaxing. The town itself is also famed for its beautiful basilica, which was featured in “The Sound of Music” wedding scene. Once you arrive, grab a coffee along the lakeside and take in the mountain views—well earned after this scenic Austrian ride!
