The Saalbach riverbank is very natural, like the river in its old bed. On the right is the military training area

The Siezenheimer Steg is a border crossing between Austria (Salzburg-Siezenheim) and Germany (Freilassing, Bavaria). It is particularly noteworthy because it is exclusively reserved for foot and bicycle traffic. The bridge spans the Saalach river, which forms the natural border between the two countries here. On one side, you are in the tranquil Siezenheim (known for the Red Bull Arena nearby), on the other side, you arrive directly in Bavarian Freilassing.

In midsummer, pack a swimsuit and a towel to cool off in the Saalach ;)
