For those interested in nature, taking a stroll along the Salzach River or venturing into the nearby mountains for hiking can be quite rewarding.

Another notable site is the Cathedral of Salzburg, which features impressive baroque architecture and a stunning interior. The St. Peter's Abbey and its cemetery, one of the oldest in the city, offer a peaceful retreat and a chance to reflect on the area's history.
