Gita in bici di un giorno da Salisburgo a Schärding

Ready for a scenic adventure? This cycling route whisks you from the cultural hub of Salzburg to the charming Baroque town of Schärding—all within a day’s ride.

Starting in Salzburg, Mozart’s birthplace and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, you’ll pedal out of the city past stunning alpine backdrops and rolling countryside. The route covers about 128 km and mixes quiet roads, dedicated cycleways, and country paths, so you’ll get a nice blend of smooth asphalt and a touch of gravel for some variety (but nothing too wild).

You’ll climb around 600 meters in total, but you’ll be rewarded with more descent than ascent—meaning the journey trends gently downhill, especially as you approach the Inn River valley.

Schärding awaits at the end, with its colorful riverside buildings, cozy cafés, and relaxed vibe—perfect for a celebratory coffee or ice cream. With mostly quiet roads and plenty of open scenery, this ride combines historic sights, nature, and that sweet sense of arrival. Enjoy the journey!
