Bikepacking de Linz à Salzbourg

Ready for an epic ride across Upper Austria? Set off from Linz, a vibrant city on the Danube known for its blend of modern art and historic charm. Your journey to Salzburg covers around 151 km, mostly on quiet roads and smooth asphalt—ideal for relaxing into the countryside’s rhythm.

While the route does climb a solid 1,340 meters overall, the hills are rewarded with sweeping scenic views. Expect both lush riverside stretches and rolling farmland. More than half your ride is on tranquil backroads, with the occasional dedicated cycle path and even a gravel segment to spice things up.

Crossing into Salzburg, the city of Mozart and baroque beauty, is a perfect finish—grab a coffee in the Old Town or take a quick stroll up to the fortress for that well-earned view.

Overall, it’s a great route for seasoned cyclists looking for a mix of relaxed pedaling, landscape variety, and classic Austrian culture at both ends. Enjoy the ride!
