Experience Salzburg´s Old Town and surroundings from another perspective!

In earlier times, salt (Salz in German) was transported by boat along the river to the city, thereby giving the River Salzach its name. The last ship to cruise on the river was closed in 1891 due to shallow water and weak engines. More than a century later, and since the year 2002 it is possible to cruise along the river.
