Flying to Salzburg: tips and information for your trip
Salzburg, in the northwest of Austria, blends history, charm, and alpine beauty. Just across the border from Bavaria and nestled in the scenic Salzburg Basin, it’s one of the largest cities in the Alps and home to around 160,000 people. The Salzach River winds through its heart, but the city owes its name not to the river, but to the rich salt deposits that brought it wealth centuries ago.
Overlooking the rooftops is Hohensalzburg Fortress—Europe’s largest fully preserved castle complex and a must-see for visitors. As you explore the city, you’ll find striking medieval, Gothic, and Baroque buildings. Dozens of church towers rise into the sky, earning Salzburg the nickname “Rome of the North.” For over a thousand years, the city was a major religious center—second only to the Vatican. Today, Salzburg welcomes you with history, culture, and breathtaking mountain views.

A taxi to the Old Town takes about 15 minutes, while buses offer a slightly longer but budget-friendly alternative.
Most of Salzburg’s main attractions are within walking distance, making the city easy to explore on foot. For longer routes, the public transport system is a reliable choice.
