2026 Grodig Travel Guide: must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transport & travel experiences (updated in January)

#NovemberDestinations2025 Included in the Salzburg Card, the Untersbergbahn cable car was a must-try! We loved the winter scenery! But once we got to the top, we realized the snow and wind were incredibly strong, haha! We were probably the group that stayed the longest there! 🚡 Untersberg Cable Car Highlights • Free with the Salzburg Card (one of the best value redemption options!) (The cable car itself costs more than the card!) • Approximately 20-30 minutes by bus from the city center to the cable car station. • The cable car goes directly to the summit of Untersberg, at an altitude of 1,776 m. • In winter, the summit often offers a magical experience of "no snow in the city → a snow-covered mountaintop." • On a clear day, you can see the German-Austrian border mountains – absolutely spectacular! 🌨️ Things to Note in Winter • Extremely strong winds on the mountain! It's so cold you'll question your existence! • The roads may be icy, so wearing regular sneakers is not recommended (see the last picture – it's incredibly difficult to walk, haha). • If the wind is too strong, the official route may be temporarily closed (be sure to check before you go). • Partial closures of the mountaintop walking route are possible in winter, but the platform area is still great for taking photos. ❄️ What can you do at the summit? • Take countless photos of the snowscape. • Overlook the entire city of Salzburg (it looks like a miniature model). • The winter-limited "sea of ​​clouds" is incredibly dreamy (come early to see it better). • Warm up with a hot drink at the mountaintop restaurant (thankfully they have mulled wine). #Salzburg #SalzburgCard #UntersbergCableCarriage #WinterTravel #AustriaTravel #EuropeSelfGuidedTrip #Snowscape #SalzburgAttractions #MustVisitAustria #Austria #EuropeWinter #TravelGuide #Attractions

Even though Salzburg is beautiful in the summer, nowhere feels more festive than being in the snow in the mountains of Salzburg in the winter! We wrapped up warmly in so many layers and went out to explore. Recommendations: Spend a day walking around the old town, visiting the sites such as Mozart’s Birthplace, Mirabell Palace, Salzburg Cathedral, St Peter’s Abbey and Mozartplatz Square. We found Christmas markets covering the square, an ice rink, and some free exhibitions. The next day, take the gondola to the top of the Untersberg, for snow and fantastic views!🚡 It is cold up there so dress warmly, and wear shoes with plenty of grip as you’ll need to walk on the snow! ⛄️ ❄️🌨️ ##magicalxmastrip #holidayseason #austriatrip #europetrip #winterwonderland #travel #festivefun

I wanna go back #living_europe the view was perfect

#2024wish It was winter when I was in Salzburg Austria. One of the most memorable moments from this trip was the time spent in top of Untersberg. My wife held my hand while we walked slowly in the thick snow on top of the mountain. We didn't walk too far as the visibility was low. However, we took some great photos. In 2024, I hope to visit Mount Fuji in Tokyo Japan as it has been my dream for so many years. I hope to enjoy the snow there too.

#EuropeanTravel #AustrianTravel #Salzburg #Untersberg 📍Address: St. Leonhard, Salzburg 5020 Austria🇦🇹 📍Atmosphere/Facilities: A place where you can see Austria's beautiful natural scenery. It is located on the border between Germany and Austria, and boasts a height of 1973m, so you can enjoy the beautiful, open scenery. 📍Key Points: Although it is a whopping height of 1973m, you can reach the top in 8 minutes by cable car, and when the weather is good, you can see the open natural scenery that overlooks Austria and Germany. 📍Average price per person: Salzburg Card (48H) 35 euros Untersberg Mountain is a mountain located in Salzburg, far from the city center, where you can feel the autumn mood and enjoy the Austrian panorama from a high place of 1973m. If you take the cable car up, it takes only 8 minutes, and the cable car facilities are well-equipped, and although it is difficult to get there because it is far from the city, it is so beautiful when you get to the top that you forget all about the difficulty. You can enjoy the natural scenery including the mountain from a great height, and it is so high that the town looks completely small. There is also a well-made walking path next to it, so it is good to take a walk and enjoy the beautiful scenery. If you go to Salzburg, be sure to visit Untersberg Mountain, a huge mountain with a great height :)

When we were travelling in Salzburg, we got the Salzburg card which entitled us to visit a lot of places for free. Untersberg was one of such places. Untersberg is a mountain in Salzburg. I always love to view snowy mountains. Thus, I was thrilled that Untersberg was one of the places covered by the Salzburg card. We took the cable up to the peak and took a small walk over there. The weather was not so good and thus we did not have a good view of the surroundings. However, it was fun walking around in the snow on the mountain.
