Fräulein Maria's Bicycle Tour
Salzburg has repeatedly been chosen as Austria's most bicycle-friendly city. So what could be more logical than exploring Mozart's city and all its churches, squares, palaces, fountains and attractions by bike? "Fräulein Maria's Bicycle Tour" is the perfect way to visit the sites and film locations from the legendary "The Sound of Music" movie.
Small groups start off on the tour each day at 9:30 am from April to October, from June-August daily at 9:30 am and 4:30 pm. The route leads from Mirabell Square through the Mirabell Gardens, the Horse Pond, crosses St. Peter's Cemetery to Nonnberg Convent, on to Leopoldskron Palace, to the Frohnburg and through the beautiful Hellbrunn Avenue to Hellbrunn palace and back to the city in 3.5 hours. Avoiding large, busy roads, visitors will get to know the city of Salzburg from its quiet and gentle side.
All bicycles, helmets, child seats and other accessories will be provided. Bicyclists do not have to be particularly fit for the tour, the route is also easily managed by children. There are plenty of breaks to stop and rest and enjoy the scenery.
