Very nice bike tour from Bad Reichenhall via Freilassing and Bergheim (we have that here in the Rhineland too 😉) to Salzburg and back.
Start and finish at the festival site in Bad Reichenhall, which offers plenty of free parking.
First, the route takes you along wonderful bike paths, always along the Saalach. It's simply wonderful to cycle here, especially …

From Salzburg back along the Salzach River and from the Salzachspitz along the Saalach.
The …

Intermediate stop on the way to vacation and after a long drive made a little lap to relax. Borderline experience towards Salzburg. A great city where we have been several times. Today for the first time by bike. Great route mostly along the water
