The Magic Flute might sound. Or the Little Night Music
will golden your evening hours. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart accompanies you
on this journey.
Wherever you look, his family has left many traces. The
city of Salzburg would be completely different without its most important
son. His house
of birth, the house where he lived and the Mozart statue
testify to his presence also in modern times. Mozart is everywhere, and
can be heard in
all the streets. If you are cycling relaxed and without
pressure, the lovely landscape will also influence you and. Put yourself
in his musical genius,
follow his paths. Whether at the fortresses, guest houses,
St. Gilgen - the Mozart town of Wolfgangsee, or in Bad Reichenhall -
the first stage
on Mozart's journey to Italy - you can be sure to encounter
him!
Usually well-built bike and field paths; short
distances on side roads and twice also on the main road. The rout is
flat and slightly hilly, some steeper ascents and descents. short mountain hike.
