In Salzburg's Saalach Valley, fun is guaranteed for the whole family. With the trailer on the bike for the little ones and e-bikes for the older ones to hire, the whole family can explore the mountains together with ease.

They lead you and your children on either asphalt bike paths or adventurous gravel roads through the impressive scenery of the Saalach Valley. In addition to the biking fun, there are also great highlights perfect for children. Deep gorges, exciting adventure playgrounds and amazing caves are just some of the things you can discover whilst riding in this beautiful area.
