Discover Salzburg by public transport

The province of Salzburg offers an impressive variety of sights, hikes and hiking routes, which can be explored ideally by public transport.

The diverse landscape – from gentle alpine pastures to imposing peaks – invites you to explore nature and delights hiking enthusiasts of every experience level. Whether in the Salzkammergut, Pongau, Pinzgau or Lungau regions, you’ll find well-marked trails leading to scenic and culturally rewarding destinations.

What makes it especially appealing is that many of these hikes start or end right at bus and train stops, making planning both sustainable and flexible. Highlights such as the Krimml Waterfalls, the Eisriesenwelt Werfen ice caves, or idyllic alpine pastures like the Loferer Alm are easily accessible.
