Even if for golf enthusiasts their game is one of the most beautiful and important things in their lives so that they also plan their holiday around golf courses, each and every round comes to an end and one longs for variety. It’s a good thing that you can draw on a veritable wealth of possibilities here in SalzburgerLand to find your balance away from golf. Indulge in cultural and culinary delights, treat your body, soul and spirit to wellness or enjoy the tranquillity away from everyday life while hiking.
Culinary delights
Culinary delights in SalzburgerLand have a name – The Via Culinaria, which invites you on a tasty journey right across the state. Regardless of whether you only visit individual places or you are on the road a little longer on this ‘road of pleasure’ – no wish remains unfulfilled here. The Via Culinaria leads across 10 culinary pathways to the most delicious regional produce. Whether you taste them at the producer or the farmer, enjoy traditional specialties at a rustic host or are served them in award-winning restaurants as the highest level of gourmet art. The decisive ingredients here are regionality, originality, quality and authenticity, which is why it is hardly surprising that Prof. Dr.h.c. Eckart Witzigmann, named as “Chef of the Century” by Gault Millau, was chosen as patron of the Via Culinaria.
Wellness for body, soul and spirit
The topic of wellness is very important in SalzburgerLand. No wonder then, that there are also plenty of offers spread across all regions for slowing down your body a bit, being pampered and recharging your batteries.
The healing effect of the Krimml Waterfalls
In the middle of the Hohe Tauern National Park you find the famous Krimml Waterfalls. The Paracelsus Medical University Salzburg has proved that the Krimml Waterfalls provide a health-promoting effect for asthmatics and allergy sufferers. The exceptionally fine spray mist, in conjunction with a health holiday in Upper Pinzgau, does not only reduce allergic asthma, but also provides freedom from symptoms for several months.

Hiking into the mountains after golf

Because where else can you get your head as free and switch off, as in the beautiful Alpine world of SalzburgerLand. Countless paths, alpine pastures and peaks are waiting to be discovered.
