VICHIKINGCLUB

Description: Hike date is changed due to weather forecast. This is not a cultural trip but a hike up the two mountains on either side of the city of Salzburg. There are a lot of steep, stone stairs involved but the views to the surrounding snowcapped mountains and the views down to the city of Salzburg can be breathtaking with the right weather. A picnic lunch is planned in the Franz Josef Park. Time permitting we will stop for a Salzburg nockerl at the end of the hike.
