Often referred to as 'White Gold', salt has played a major role in the history of the Salzburger Land being the origin to the name and wealth of both the city of Salzburg and the region. The River Salzach, which rises in the lofty heights of the Hohe Tauern Mountain range before flowing towards Salzburg is the main transport route along the Salzach Valley, linking the provincial capital of Salzburg with much of its hinterland.
The region offers an impressive combination of mountains, lakes
and rivers, delightful villages and prosperous cities. The
Salzburger Land is a good mixture of both the urban and the alpine,
with its splendid Baroque capital being the main attraction
for many visitors. Music is an important part of the culture of
this region with Salzburg being the birthplace of Mozart.
South of Salzburg, the narrow Salzach Valley and the Hohe Tauern
mountain range provide a dramatic setting for towns like Zell am
See, Kaprun and Saalbach Hinterglemm.
