Lying in the heart of Austria and centre of Europe, many paths lead to the ‘City of Mozart’ – whether by air, rail, or car, Salzburg couldn’t be easier to reach.
Salzburg Airport (SZG), the second-largest airport in Austria, welcomes direct flights from several countries and numerous airlines, including British Airways from London Gatwick Airport (LGW) in the UK.
SZG is conveniently located just four kilometres from the historic city centre, which can be reached in just 15 minutes by bus or taxi.
A mobility fee has been introduced in Salzburg, but in return, all overnight guests in Salzburg are issued with the Guest Mobility Ticket, which allows you to enjoy free, unlimited access to public transport from the moment you arrive and for the entire duration of your stay.
The Guest Mobility Ticket grants access to a modern, well-connected bus and train network, ensuring comfortable and convenient travel to the most beautiful attractions in Salzburg.
By choosing public transport, you can also enjoy an eco-friendly vacation and actively contribute to reducing carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions.
You will receive the Guest Mobility Ticket electronically as a mobile wallet pass or PDF either at check-in or pre-check-in at your accommodation.
Salzburg Hauptbahnhof is the city’s main railway station and the most important transportation hub in Western Austria, with numerous national and international connections.
Alternatively, Salzburg is highly walkable, with most major sights in the Old Town and along the Salzach River reachable on foot and various themed city walks available.
