Overview of your Salzburg tour:

Join in a tour of adventure, visit the largest ice caves of the world and the 11th century fortress of Hohenwerfen. This particular fortress, perched on a hill nearby the little mountain village of Werfen, is one of the most impressive one's in Europe. As an experienced licensed guide I can tell you a lot about the history of the fortress and the area and additionally you have the option to enjoy a real awesome falconry show and to see the fortress from inside on a guided tour done by an own fortress guide. High up in the surrounding mountains the world's largest ice caves are situated. A special cave guide takes you on a journey through the fascinating world of ice and you can listen to many interesting stories about this natural wonder. A truly unforgettable experience! PLEASE NOTE: This tour is only available in the summer season (from May to Oct. ) As there is also some uphill hiking involved a little bit of fitness is required. Furthermore good shoes and warm clothes are recommended for the ice cave.

Your Salzburg tour itinerary

From the city of Salzburg this tour follows the Salzach river valley southwards past the old salt town Hallein to the romantic village of Werfen, which is surrounded by steep mountains of the Salzburg Alps. Closeby is the funicular station of the fortress of Hohenwerfen. This funicular leads uphill to the fortress, where the falconry show will be presented, followed by a one-hour guided tour through the fortress. The next highlight are the world's largest ice caves high up in the Tennen mountain range. By a scenic drive on a mountain road uphill, a pleasant hike and a breathtaking cable car ride this trip finally arrives at the giant ice caves. After a one-hour excursion through the ice caves by a special guide the route leads the same way back to Werfen and finally to Salzburg.
