Additional Information
This is picture-postcard Austria: shimmering blue lakes, deep green meadows,
alpine villages and traditional dress. Our 6 day cycling holiday still packs
the punches, beginning on the shores of Lake Mondsee, where the local church
was the location of the famous wedding in The Sound of Music. Then it's on to
Bad Ischl, perhaps the jewel in the crown of all the towns you visit en
route. There is so much to do and see here, you might want to have extra
nights. From Bad Ischl you cycle to the beautiful lakeside town of Strobl
(from where you can visit fairytale Salzburg) before arriving back for your
final night on the shore of Lake Mondsee.
