Europe is the top-level geographic node for Austria and Germany in the Introducing Salzburg destination graph. The site’s editorial scope remains Salzburg and the surrounding places that make sense for a visit from Salzburg. This page preserves the real hierarchy used by breadcrumbs, filters, maps, and related destination paths without promising a continent-wide travel guide.

Things to do
Experiences in Europe
Tours, concerts, markets and walks based in Europe. All of them, not a selection.
Berchtesgaden & Eagles Nest Tour
Full-day excursion to Berchtesgaden and Eagle's Nest (May-Oct). ~45 min to Berchtesgaden. Dokumentationszentrum Obersalzberg for WWII context. Salt mine as wet-weather/winter alternative. Panorama Tours Salzburg and Bobs Special Tours.
Christkindlmarkt Salzburg
One of Austria's most atmospheric Christmas markets. Late November to 24 December. Main market on Domplatz, additional on Residenzplatz and Mirabellplatz. Baroque facades, fortress on the hill, Glühwein. One of the most visited Christmas Market destinations in the German-speaking world.
Festungskonzerte

Fiaker Salzburg
Horse-drawn carriage rides through the Altstadt from Residenzplatz. Traditional tourist experience. Genuinely atmospheric. Animal welfare controversy noted honestly: visitors should make their own judgement.
Free Walking Tour Salzburg
1.5 - 2 hours
Daily guided walking tour of Salzburg's Altstadt. Tip-based, no fixed price: join free, pay what you think it was worth. Meets at the Spirit of Mozart and covers the essential old town from Mirabell to Mozartplatz in about ninety minutes. Run by Free Walking Tour Salzburg, Gerhard Reus's own brand.
Fuschlsee-Ellmaustein Half Day
Car-free half-day: bus 150 to Fuschl am See (30 min), hike Ellmaustein (<1 hr to summit), swim in the Fuschlsee, bus back. Optional: Schober (1,328 m, 2-3 hrs) for a full mountain day.

Hellbrunn Advent Market
The Hellbrunn Advent Market sets up inside the Baroque grounds of Hellbrunn Palace each December, turning the trick-fountain gardens and arcaded courtyards into something the city-center markets simply cannot offer: 700 lit conifers, a palace facade that becomes a giant Advent calendar window by window, and a Krampus run that draws locals who have seen it
Hellbrunner Allee Cycle
The Hellbrunner Allee is the world's oldest preserved Baroque avenue, a 4 km corridor of mature chestnuts and oaks planted by Prince-Archbishop Markus Sittikus between 1613 and 1615 to connect the Residenz with his summer palace at Hellbrunn Palace. Cycling it is flat, car-free, and unrushed.
Jazz & the City
Annual October jazz festival. Vast majority of performances free. Baroque squares become jazz stages. Four days. More local and intimate than the classical Festival. One of the most accessible events in the Salzburg calendar.
Jedermann
Hugo von Hofmannsthal's morality play, performed on Domplatz almost every summer since 1920. The longest continuously running open-air theatrical tradition in the German-speaking world. When Death calls from offstage, his voice echoes from the rooftops and towers. The Cathedral facade as backdrop, the square as auditorium, the city as stage.
Kapuzinerberg Circuit
Self-guided circuit of Salzburg's right-bank hill. Linzer Gasse trailhead through woodland to viewpoints, monastery, and Franziskischlossl beer garden. 2 hours with stops. Quieter and more local than the Mönchsberg.

The route takes in Mirabell Gardens, Nonnberg Abbey, Schloss Frohnburg, Leopoldskron, and the Hellbrunner Allee to Hellbrunn Palace. Almost entirely flat, suitable for all ages.
Mirabell Christmas Market
The Mirabell Christmas Market sets up on Mirabellplatz in front of Mirabell Palace from late November to January 1, running daily with extended hours on weekends. It is one of several Salzburg Christmas markets, smaller and calmer than the Domplatz market across the river. The Lions Club Salzburg Mirabell runs it with proceeds going to local charities.
Mönchsberg Ridge Walk
The definitive self-guided walk in Salzburg. Ridge-top traverse of the Mönchsberg from north to south, passing the Museum der Moderne, Stadtalm, Humboldtterrasse, Richterhöhe, ending at Hohensalzburg Fortress. 1.5-2 hours. Free. The single most rewarding thing a visitor can do.
Mozart Dinner Concert
The Mozart Dinner Concert takes place in the Baroque Hall of Stiftskeller St Peter, a restaurant operating since 803 AD and the oldest in the world. Three-course dinner, costumed performers, arias from Don Giovanni, Marriage of Figaro, and The Magic Flute, by candlelight.
Mozartwoche
One of the world's great chamber music festivals, entirely Mozart, each January around his birthday (27 January). Organised by the Stiftung Mozarteum. January is low season in Salzburg: a genuine insider reason to visit outside the crowds.

Wooden slides, underground salt lakes, raft crossings. Half-day addition to broader excursions.
Salzach Cycle Path to Hallein
A flat 15 km cycling route south from Salzburg along the Salzach to Hallein, Gerhard's hometown. The path follows the river embankment through open countryside with the Untersberg massif constant to the west. A natural rest stop at Rif, where the Königsseeache joins the Salzach.

Covers Hohensalzburg Fortress, Salzburg Museum, Haus der Natur, DomQuartier, Hellbrunn Palace, cable cars. Note: the Salzburg Museum is closed for renovation until approximately spring 2027, so it does not count toward the card's value until it reopens.
Salzburg Festival Halls Guided Tour

Eat and drink
Dishes born in Europe
Dishes whose authored origin is here. Born here, not just served here.
Apfelstrudel
Paper-thin hand-pulled pastry around sliced apples, sugar, cinnamon, raisins, and buttered breadcrumbs. Baked golden. Served warm with vanilla sauce or cream. One of the great achievements of Austrian pastry. The Cafe Tomaselli version, in the oldest coffee house in Austria, has a particular authority.
Bauernschmaus
Farmer's feast plate. Multiple smoked and roasted meats, sauerkraut, bread dumplings, potatoes. More food than one person needs. Best in cold months with dark beer.
Bosna
Salzburg's own street food: spiced bratwurst in a white roll with onions, mustard, and curry powder. Balkan origin, fully adopted. The canonical address is Balkan Grill Walter on Getreidegasse.
Brettljause
Wooden board of cold cuts, cheeses, pickles, horseradish, mustard, bread. The default beer garden accompaniment. What you eat at the Augustiner or Franziskischlossl while the afternoon stretches out.
Einspänner
Strong black coffee in a tall glass topped with a dome of unsweetened whipped cream (Schlagobers). Named after one-horse carriage coachmen who needed to drink with one hand. Cold sweetness meets hot bitterness in each sip.
Enzian Schnaps
The definitive alpine spirit. Distilled from yellow gentian roots harvested by hand above the treeline. Intensely bitter, herbal, medicinal in the best sense. Destillerie Grassl is the reference. Sporrer on Getreidegasse sells it. Not for everyone, but nothing else will do.
Frittatensuppe
Clear beef broth with thin strips of savoury pancake. The other half of the Austrian soup canon alongside Leberknödelsuppe. Light, elegant, deceptively simple.
Germknödel
Large steamed yeast dumpling filled with Powidl (concentrated plum jam). Melted butter, poppy seeds, icing sugar. The definitive Austrian mountain hut dessert. Best eaten immediately, in a warm room, in winter.
Glühwein
Mulled wine. Red wine heated with cinnamon, cloves, star anise, orange peel, sugar. Inseparable from the Salzburg Advent experience. Quality varies by stand. Hellbrunn Advent Market tends to have the highest quality.
Gulasch
Deep, paprika-rich beef stew. Austrian adaptation of the Hungarian original. Onions, sweet paprika, beef, simmered 2-3 hours. Thicker than Hungarian Gulyás. Served with bread dumplings (Semmelknödel). A bowl on a cold afternoon is one of the most satisfying things the city's food offers.
Kaiserschmarrn
"Emperor's mess." Torn, caramelised pancake with plum jam. Reputedly named for Emperor Franz Joseph I. Enriched with whipped egg whites for lightness. On virtually every traditional Austrian menu. Best made to order. Substantial enough for a light main course.
Kasnocken
Salzburg's cheese spaetzle. Egg-and-flour dumplings layered with melted mountain cheese and crispy fried onions. On every mountain hut menu and most city restaurants. The Pinzgauer Kasnockn is the protected regional variant.
Kaspressknödel
Pressed cheese dumpling fried until crisp. The definitive mountain hut appetiser. Served in clear broth (Kaspressknödelsuppe) or dry with salad. Simple, satisfying, first thing walkers order in winter.
Leberknödelsuppe
Clear beef broth with liver dumplings. The opening act on almost every traditional Austrian menu. With Frittatensuppe, the "two soups" of Austrian cuisine. Honest, warming, unchanged for generations.
Marillenknödel
Whole apricots in soft potato dough, boiled, rolled in toasted buttered breadcrumbs with cinnamon. The definitive Austrian summer dessert. Strictly seasonal: July-August only, when apricots are in. Outside apricot season, a disappointment.
Melange
THE Austrian coffee. Espresso + steamed milk + milk foam in a wide porcelain cup. Like a cappuccino but lighter, less foamy, lower temperature. Sipped slowly while reading a newspaper. Ordering a Melange marks you as someone who knows where they are.
Mozartkugel
Salzburg's most recognisable export. Pistachio marzipan around nougat, enrobed in dark chocolate. Created 1890 by Paul Furst. The Fürst family still hand-rolls the original at Alter Markt. Silver-and-blue foil. Fürst never patented it. If you buy them at a supermarket, you are not eating what Paul Fürst made.
Obatzda
Bavarian cheese spread. Overripe Camembert mashed with butter, onion, paprika, caraway, beer. Served with pretzels or dark bread. The perfect thing to eat with your first beer at the Augustiner.
Palatschinken
Austrian crepes. Apricot jam, Nutella, Topfen, or ice cream. On every menu. The word comes from Romanian via Hungarian: Austrian cuisine absorbed freely from across the empire. Children order without hesitation. Adults pretend to hesitate.
Pinzgauer Kasnockn
Protected Pinzgau variant of Kasnocken. Made with Pinzgauer Bierkäse and Almkäse: more assertive, tangy. Served in the pan with green salad. Found across the Pinzgau from Zell am See to Krimml.
Sachertorte
The most famous cake in the world. Created 1832 by sixteen-year-old Franz Sacher for Prince Metternich. Dense chocolate sponge, apricot jam, dark chocolate glaze. Hotel Sacher holds the trademark. Recipe not public. Served with unsweetened whipped cream (Schlagobers). Traditional instruction: eat without the cream. Traditional practice: eat with.
Salzburger Bierfleisch
Salzburg regional: beef braised in dark beer with onions and vinegar. Rich, malty, slightly tangy. The dish locals order when visitors order Gulasch. Served with bread dumplings.
Salzburger Nockerl
The defining dish of Salzburg. A baked soufflé of three golden peaks representing the three hills (Mönchsberg, Kapuzinerberg, Rainberg). Cloud-like texture. First documented 17th century, reputedly created for Wolf Dietrich von Raitenau's court. Never order a Nockerl if you are in a hurry.
Schweinsbraten
Roast pork. The other Austrian main course alongside Wiener Schnitzel and Tafelspitz. Caraway, garlic, dark beer. Shattering crackling. Semmelknödel and braised red cabbage.
Semmelknödel
THE Austrian side dish. Bread dumplings. Alongside Gulasch, Schweinsbraten, game dishes, and anything with sauce. Without Semmelknödel, half the main courses on a traditional menu would have nothing to lean on.
Spritzer
White wine + sparkling water. Austria's default summer drink. Half and half. Costs less than a soft drink. Everyone drinks it. Nobody pretends it is anything more than summer in a glass.
Tafelspitz
Austria's most refined beef dish. Prime rump simmered slowly in rich broth. Served with creamed spinach, roasted potatoes, chive sauce, and horseradish cream. Emperor Franz Joseph I reportedly ate it daily. Cannot be rushed. Cannot be improved by anything except time and a good broth.
Topfenstrudel
The sister dish to Apfelstrudel. Curd cheese (Topfen), raisins, lemon zest in hand-pulled pastry. Creamy and rich where Apfelstrudel is tart and fruity. Often the better choice.
Verlängerter
The "extended" coffee. What Austrians actually drink daily. Espresso diluted with hot water. The answer to "How do I order a regular coffee?" Stronger than an Americano.
Wiener Schnitzel

Where to eat
Where to eat and drink in Europe
Every restaurant, cafe, bar and stand documented inside Europe, A to Z.
220 Grad Nonntal
The Nonntal location of 220 Grad. A neighbourhood café south of the Altstadt between the Cathedral and Nonnberg Abbey. Good coffee in a quieter setting.
220 Grad Rupertinum
The first location of Salzburg's 220 Grad specialty coffee brand, in the Rupertinum building on Wiener-Philharmoniker-Gasse. A natural stop on a museum visit.
Alchemist Belge
Salzburg's specialist craft beer bar. Belgian and Austrian craft beers in a city where tap options have long defaulted to Stiegl or Augustiner. Small and unpretentious.
Andreas Hofer Weinstube
A traditional Weinstube (wine tavern) in the Steingasse area. Austrian wines in a warm, wood-panelled atmosphere. The Steingasse location gives it a quieter, more local feel.
Augustiner Bräustübl Mülln
Operating since 1621
One of the largest and most atmospheric beer halls in Austria, founded by the Augustinian friars of Mülln in 1621 and run since 1835 by the Benedictine Abbey of Michaelbeuern. Visitors collect beer directly from wooden barrels. The garden seats thousands. Adjacent to Mulln Church.
Balkan Grill Walter
A Salzburg institution on Getreidegasse. A small sausage stand feeding locals and in-the-know visitors for decades. The queue on a busy day is its own recommendation.
Bärenwirt Salzburg
A traditional Austrian Gasthof in the Mülln district. One of the most reliably authentic restaurants in the city. Beer garden draws residents and visitors alike.
Blaue Gans Restaurant
Inn since 1549
The restaurant of the Arthotel Blaue Gans at Getreidegasse 41. Inn since 1549. Contemporary art on the walls, Austrian cooking with modern interpretation. Medieval architecture meets current culture.
Café Bazar
Opened 1930
Stefan Zweig, Max Reinhardt, and Hugo von Hofmannsthal used to sit at these marble tables, and the view across the Salzach toward the Altstadt and fortress hasn't changed since. Cafe Bazar is the literary coffeehouse that locals recommend when tourists ask about Tomaselli.
Café Konditorei Habakuk
A traditional Salzburg Konditorei and café, serving the city's residents rather than its tourist masses. Coffee and cake in a neighbourhood setting.
Café Tomaselli
Established 1703
Austria's oldest coffeehouse by documented record, Tomaselli has been on the Alter Markt since 1700. The pastry trolley wheeled to your table is the signature move. The terrace on the square is the most photographed coffeehouse seat in Salzburg, which means you will be competing for it with everyone who has read a travel article about the city.
Café Wernbacher
Long-established traditional Neustadt café. Serves residents, not visitors. Good coffee, pastries, unhurried atmosphere.
Destillerie Grassl
The oldest and most celebrated Enzian (gentian) distillery in the alpine border region, near Berchtesgaden. Gentian schnapps distilled from yellow gentian roots harvested by hand in the high Alps. Welcomes visitors for tastings.
Die Weisse
Salzburg's own wheat beer brewery on Rupertgasse. Brews unfiltered Weissbier on-site. One of the city's most beloved local institutions. A genuinely local crowd: students, families, regulars.
Esszimmer Salzburg
One of Salzburg's leading fine dining restaurants, Michelin-recognised. In the Mülln district. Contemporary Austrian and European cuisine: precise, seasonally driven.
Feinkost Stocker
A traditional delicatessen and butcher on Siegmund-Haffner-Gasse. One of the last genuinely local food shops in the heart of the old town. Leberkäse, fresh bread rolls, and a proper Jause at local prices.
Franziskischlössl
Built 1629
A small baroque fortification at the Kapuzinerberg summit (1629), now a seasonal beer garden with panoramic views. Real historic structure, modest beer garden, and a 30-minute walk to get there: a character no purpose-built café can replicate.
Gasthaus Hinterbrühl
Long-established neighbourhood restaurant south of the Altstadt. Where Salzburg residents eat. Traditional Austrian cooking, beer garden, genuine local atmosphere.
Gasthof Schloss Aigen
Historic inn in the Aigen district. Beer garden in the Schloss Aigen grounds. A long lunch in the garden feels like stepping out of the tourist city entirely.
Heart of Joy
One of Salzburg's longest-running vegan/vegetarian restaurants. Alongside Spicy Spices, represents the committed plant-based dining scene in a meat-and-dairy city.
Hofbräu Kaltenhausen
Founded 1475
The oldest brewery in Salzburg State, founded 1475 near Hallein. Predates Stiegl by almost two decades. Beer garden on the Salzach. Cooperage Museum and brewery tours. Fifteen minutes from Salzburg by train.
Holztrattner Brodgasse
A quality bakery and café on Brodgasse in the Altstadt. Brodgasse, the old "bread lane," has a historic association with bakers going back centuries. Good breakfast stop near Getreidegasse.
Humboldt Stubn
A restaurant and bar on the Mönchsberg, connected to the Humboldtterrasse. Drinks and food with a view over the city, particularly at sunset.
Imlauer Sky Bar
Rooftop bar at the IMLAUER Hotel Pitter Salzburg. Panoramic view over the city toward fortress and Mönchsberg. Less well-known alternative to the Steinterrasse.
Johanneskeller
A bar and wine cellar in the Altstadt. Cellar bars occupy a particular place in Salzburg's nightlife: thick stone walls and underground spaces lending themselves to intimate, candlelit drinking.
Kaffee Alchemie
Salzburg's leading specialty coffee shop. A third-wave café for visitors who find the grand cafés too formal or the tourist cafés too generic.
Konditorei Fürst
Founded 1884
The original home of the Mozartkugel, invented by Paul Furst in 1890. The Alter Markt shop still hand-rolls each Kugel individually, wrapping it in silver-and-blue foil. Fürst never patented the recipe.
Konditorei Schatz
A traditional Salzburg Konditorei in the Altstadt. Pastries, cakes, and coffee in the classic Austrian confectionery tradition.
Konditorei Zauner
Established 1832
The imperial court confectionery, operating since 1832. Zauner is to Bad Ischl what Demel is to Vienna. The Zaunerstollen (a chocolate-nougat pastry) is the signature creation. The Esplanade location on the Traun river terrace is the one to visit. An architectural and cultural landmark beyond its role as a pastry shop.
Krimpelstätter
One of the most authentic dining experiences in Salzburg. Historic brewery-restaurant in Mülln, steps from the Augustiner Bräustübl. Brews its own beer. Traditional Salzburg cooking in a wood-panelled interior and shaded beer garden.
Ludwig Burger Salzburg
A quality locally run burger restaurant on Linzer Gasse, opened 2016. Austrian organic beef, a short menu done well, dogs welcome.
M32
The restaurant and café at the Museum der Moderne Monchsberg. Sleek contemporary space with one of the best panoramic views in Salzburg. The terrace at sunset is hard to argue with.
Magazin
A wine bar and restaurant near the Mülln district. Exceptional Austrian wine list. One of the most intelligent combinations of restaurant and wine shop in the city. Frequented by the Festival world.
Meissl & Schadn Salzburg
An upscale restaurant on the Neustadt side, offering refined Austrian and regional cuisine. A reliable choice for a serious dinner during Festival season.
Pauli Stubm
A Stubm (small parlour restaurant) in a 17th-century stone house at Herrengasse 16, tucked behind Kapitelplatz. Three indoor rooms, a gravel beer garden for 120. Austrian food and Stiegl beer at honest prices. Closed Sundays and Mondays.
Pfefferschiff
The most serious restaurant in the greater Salzburg region. Long-standing Michelin-starred address in Hallwang. Cooking rooted in Austrian and regional produce. The benchmark for Salzburg's dining scene.
Raymond Grill Imbiss
A Salzburg street food institution with a loyal local following. Grilled meat at fair prices. The kind of place that never appears in glossy travel guides but residents queue for.
Republic Café
Contemporary café and bar at Salzburg's Republic cultural venue. Coffee by day, drinks by evening. Younger, more evening-oriented. Connected to Salzburg's contemporary cultural life.
Restaurant Ikarus
The flagship restaurant inside Hangar-7 at Salzburg Airport. Each month a different world-class guest chef cooks their signature menu. Conceived by Dietrich Mateschitz. One of the most distinctive dining experiences in Austria.
S'Herzl
The restaurant of the Hotel Goldener Hirsch on Getreidegasse. Michelin-noted. Refined Austrian cuisine in an intimate, historically rich setting.
Salzburger Grill Imbiss
Most Salzburg Würstelstände boil their sausages. This one grills them, which is the whole reason locals rate it the best stand in the old town.
Seehotel Grüner Baum
One of the most photographed hotel positions in Austria: directly on Hallstatt's famous waterfront. UNESCO village rising behind, Hallstatter See in front. Staying overnight gives the village at its most magical: quiet mornings when the coach crowds have gone.
Spicy Spices
One of Salzburg's pioneering vegetarian and vegan restaurants. Serious, flavour-forward plant-based cooking in a city traditionally centred on meat and dairy. Friendly and welcoming.
Steinterrasse
The celebrated rooftop terrace bar atop Hotel Stein. One of the most coveted outdoor drinking spots in Salzburg. Panoramic view over rooftops, Salzach, fortress, and Mönchsberg. Particularly at sunset.
Stiegl Brauwelt
Established 1492
The visitor centre and museum of Stiegl, Austria's largest private brewery, established in 1492. The Brauwelt opened in 1995 as a 5,000 m² interactive beer experience: a 270-degree brew cinema, guided production tours through the working brewhouse, included tastings, and a Bräugasthof restaurant. Located in the Maxglan district, near Salzburg Airport.
Stieglkeller
A large traditional beer garden on the Festungsberg slope between the funicular station and Hohensalzburg Fortress. One of the most dramatically positioned outdoor drinking venues in Salzburg. Connected to Stiegl Brewery (since 1492). Seasonal.
Stiftsbäckerei St. Peter
Operating since 803 AD
The bakery of St. Peter's Abbey, operating since at least 803 AD. One of the oldest continuously operating businesses of any kind in the world. The wood-fired stone oven has been baking bread for over 1,200 years.
Stiftskeller St. Peter
Documented since 803 AD
Claimed to be the oldest restaurant in Europe, documented since 803 AD. Located at Stift St. Peter, tucked into the Mönchsberg cliff. Mozart is believed to have dined here. Still run in association with the Benedictine monks.
Strobl Stüberl
A traditional neighbourhood Stüberl in Salzburg. Classic Austrian home cooking. The kind of restaurant regulars return to weekly.
The Glass Garden
Michelin-starred restaurant inside a glass-and-steel vault built against the medieval walls of Schloss Mönchstein, above the Altstadt. One of the most architecturally distinctive dining environments in Salzburg.
Triangel
A restaurant and wine bar on Wiener-Philharmoniker-Gasse, steps from the Festival Halls. One of the most reliably excellent and genuinely loved restaurants in Salzburg. Informal enough for neighbourhood feel, good enough for the Festival crowd.
Urbankeller
A Kulturwirtshaus in a historic cellar dating to 1636, operating as Salzburg's first organically certified restaurant. Five vaulted rooms, a garden for 150, and an in-house organic Steinbier. Schallmooser Hauptstraße 50.

The most famous inn in the Salzkammergut, on the Wolfgangsee at St. Wolfgang. Documented since the 14th century. World fame through Benatzky's 1930 operetta Im weißen Rößl. Still operating as hotel and restaurant.
Wirtshaus Elefant
A traditional Wirtshaus in the Altstadt on Sigmund-Haffner-Gasse, in the same building as Hotel Elefant. Austrian home cooking in a warm, informal inn atmosphere.

Altausseer See
The lake above Alt-Aussee in the Styrian Salzkammergut. Fed by glacial meltwater from the surrounding Totes Gebirge, it is considered one of the most visually intact lakes in the region, with exceptional water clarity and a distinctive turquoise-blue tone. The 7.5 km lakeside loop (Seerundweg) is one of the better flat walking circuits in the area.
Alter Markt
The Alter Markt is Salzburg's oldest square, a compact rectangle in the heart of the Altstadt flanked by Baroque facades that replaced medieval buildings. Cafe Tomaselli, which has operated here since 1705, and the Hofapotheke (court pharmacy, established 1591) still occupy their original locations on the square.
Altes Rathaus Salzburg
Rococo (1772 facade; rebuilt 1616-1618, medieval core)
Most visitors walk straight past Salzburg's old town hall without realising the slender corner building on the Kranzlmarkt hides the oldest clock and the oldest bell in the city, both housed in its tower behind a black-and-gold dial. The city bought the site, an existing burgher house built around a 12th-century tower, in 1407.

Salzburg in Fifteen Stops
The fifteen sights we mark on the map we hand every guest, in the order I would walk them. It starts on the right bank, crosses into the old town, climbs to the fortress, and comes back over the Mozartsteg. Half a day at a stroll, or a full one if you go inside things.
