Maps and trails

The community of Bad Vigaun is located in the Tennengau, south of the city of Salzburg, directly on the Schlenken.
Here, body and mind come to rest, not only in the spa, but also while hiking or biking in the beautiful nature of the Salzburg mountains. The region also offers local delicacies that make a trip also a culinary highlight. 

Summer highlight:
A cool down in the crystal clear water of the ice-cold Taugl

In winter, the region attracts with deep snow-covered slopes, on which it is wonderful to ski, winter hiking, snowshoeing or tobogganing - and those who prefer to stay in the valley can let off steam on cross-country ski trails or ice skating.

Especially relaxing:
After a long day on the slopes, take a dip in the spa in the evening and round off the evening with a glass of wine.
