The film “The Sound of Music”, directed by Robert Wise, was a world-wide success. This cycle tour takes in filming locations in Mondsee and St. Gilgen and immerses you in the world of the von Trapp family, whose lives were inseparably intertwined with this region.

Starting in St. Gilgen, take the cycle path via the Scharfling and continue to the town of Mondsee. A very special point of interest will be the Erlachmühle (www.erlachmuehle.at). From Mondsee, the “Salzkammergut Cycle Path” leads past the hamlet of Keuschen to Thalgau. From here, follow the Fuschl road (Fuschler Straße) towards the village of Fuschl via Egg and Ellmau. From Fuschl, continue on the “Salzkammergut Cycle Path” back to St.Gilgen.
