Seeham to Salzburg 7-day Self-guided Cycling Tour 

Green hills, dramatic mountain backdrops, and beautiful lakes make Salzburg’s surroundings a dream destination. Add a visit to the Mozart city with its rich culture and diverse culinary scene—from the cathedral to the Getreidegasse—and this circular tour offers even more. Starting from Seeham on Lake Obertrum (Obertrumer See), you’ll explore a new excursion each day. Enjoy swimming breaks at lakes like Irrsee, Mondsee, and Mattsee, and look forward to visits to the Michelbeuern Abbey and Gut Aiderbichl animal sanctuary. In Hallein, follow the history of salt mining, and in Oberndorf, discover the birthplace of the world-famous Christmas carol “Silent Night.” Varied yet relaxing—this cycling holiday promises a dream getaway.

Highlights:

• Mirabell Garden in Salzburg
• The steeply towering Drachenwand at the Mondsee 
• Jause at the Mostheuriger

The bike routes along the lakeshores and the Salzach River are entirely flat. Between these stretches, the terrain is mostly gently rolling. You’ll ride mainly on dedicated bike paths, farm tracks, and quiet side roads, with only a few short sections on busier roads.
