Szybka przejażdżka rowerowa z Salzburg do Elsbethen

This relaxed 9 km ride takes you from the historic heart of Salzburg down to the charming village of Elsbethen. Setting off from Salzburg, you’ll roll past Baroque architecture and scenic riverside paths, with the sparkling Salzach River often in view. The route is almost entirely paved (mostly smooth asphalt), and you’ll spend most of your time on traffic-calmed roads, dedicated cycle paths, and quiet lanes—perfect for a mellow cruise.

There’s just a gentle bit of climbing and descending, so it’s suitable for most cyclists. As you head south, you’ll gradually leave the bustle behind, passing through green patches and glimpses of the surrounding mountains. Elsbethen, your destination, is a peaceful suburb known for its proximity to Hellbrunn Palace and lovely hiking trails. If you have time, check out the nearby palace park or just enjoy the slower pace—this quick trip is all about savoring the scenery between two picturesque Austrian towns.
