Gaisberg

In 30 to 40 minutes, this tour takes you from the city center of Salzburg to Gaisberg, the main mountain of Salzburg. Learn facts about the city as you see Schloss Neuhaus, Mirabell Palace and Gardens, the Guggenthal ruins, and more. Drive through the Schallmoos main road along the Kapuzinerberg, together with the Festungsberg and Mönchsberg Mountains. See the Schloss Neuhaus castle, which was in the possession of the archbishop since the 13th century. Continue to drive through the district of Gnigl and be directed to the 1043 m high rock of the Nockstein before you reach Guggenthal. It is located at the foot of the Gaisberg and means “look into the valley.” At 1287 m above sea level, Gaisberg is the highest point in the city of Mozart and one of the Northern Limestone Alps. After reaching the top, see the ruins of the historical brewery Guggenthal and enjoy the clear mountain panorama and city view. Choose from 24-hour or 48-hour options to hop-on or off the bus as you choose. You also have the option of selecting a 3-route ticket allowing access to two additional routes: the Salzburg city hop-on hop-off, and the bus to the Salzkammergut.
