    Where to go Hiking in Salzburg City?
    Jul 25 2021
    In this episode of the Free Walking Tour Salzburg Podcast, I will tell you everything you need to know for a successful hike in the city center of Salzburg. There are three mountains within walking distance from the old town of Salzburg. These are your options for hiking in the city of Salzburg. By hiking in the city I mean hiking without taking public transport to the starting point. Each of the three city mountains in Salzburg has its own difficulty and purpose. Mönchsberg, Kapuzinerberg, and Gaisberg are the three mountains known as Stadtberge in the city of Salzburg and the mountains that can be climbed on foot from the old town. The Mönchsberg is more of a walk and suitable for sightseeing, while the Kapuzinerberg is the local recreation area of ​​Salzburg and the Gaisberg can be a real hike and quite a challenge.

    What is the best way to travel from Vienna to Salzburg?
    Jul 11 2021
    In this episode of the Free Walking Tour Salzburg Podcast, I will tell you what the best way to travel from Vienna to Salzburg is. The best way to travel from Vienna to Salzburg is without a doubt the train. Trains from Vienna to Salzburg or from Salzburg to Vienna run every half an hour and are affordable.

In this episode we will discuss everything from where to buy the tickets, which company to choose and how to get the discounts.

    In this episode of the Free Walking Tour Salzburg Podcast, I will introduce you to the Bell Tower of Salzburg. The Salzburger Glockenspiel Bell Tower, even though not many tourists climb the tower, is one of the landmarks of the town. It’s located right in the heart of the old town at residence square. Public tours only happen on Thursdays and Fridays in summer, but when Gemma and I decided to climb the tower in December 2019, we found an alternative.

  • The History of the Hohensalzburg Fortress

    The History of the Hohensalzburg Fortress
    Jun 20 2021
    In this episode of the Free Walking Tour Salzburg Podcast, I will tell you the history of the Landmark of Salzburg. The history of the Hohensalzburg fortress is inevitably linked with the history of the city of Salzburg. During the investiture controversy in 1077, the archbishops of Salzburg started building fortifications but continued to add new features for 600 years. It is by far my favorite sight in Salzburg, mostly because of the view, and I recommend it on each of my Salzburg Free Walking Tours. If you only pay for one sight, make it the Hohensalzburg Fortress!

    The 22 Churches in the Old Town of Salzburg
    Jun 13 2021
    In this episode of the Free Walking Tour Salzburg's Podcast, I will introduce you to the churches of Salzburg. Why are there so many churches in Salzburg? Well, Salzburg until for most of its history was ruled by archbishops and, therefore, by the Catholic Church. Churches in Salzburg are an alternative way of sightseeing. If you visit all the churches, your route takes you through all the old town and along lots of other important sights. In addition, the churches provide a unique insight into Salzburg's history.
