A Great Little Hike in Salzburg, Austria

Discover an incredible bird’s-eye view of Salzburg, Austria that shouldn’t be missed. While the Hohensalzburg Fortress offers stunning city vistas, the Moenchsberg hike provides an opportunity for exploration and beautiful views without the entry fee. A nice place to begin this scenic hike is by taking the stairs up to Hohensalzburg Fortress. Once there, turn right and follow the trail all the way to the Augustiner brewery. This leisurely trek offers amazing panoramas of the old city and is well-suited for adventurers of all levels. Note: There is an elevator if needed — fee or included in the Salzburg Card.

Hohensalzburg Fortress

We paid the admission and spent about an hour exploring the fort. The fort is large and well preserved, and the views are outstanding!
