Overview

See ‘Sound of Music’ filming locations, Obersalzberg, and the Austrian Lakes on a private day trip from Salzburg. The action-packed day includes visits to Schloss Leopoldskron, Hellbrunn Castle, Lake Wolfgangsee, and Mondsee — all sites immortalized in the ‘Sound of Music’ film. Travel to Obersalzberg, too, and learn about the mountain retreat during the days of Hitler’s Third Reich. Access to the Eagle’s Nest isn’t included, but there’s ample time for you to visit it, if you wish. From November until about May 10th (depends on the snow conditions), the Eagle's Nest direct access road is closed, alternatively we offer to visit the Rossfeld summit instead. The Sound of Music hiking scene was filmed at Rossfeld. From this vantage point, soak in panoramic views of the stunning Austrian and Bavarian Alps and the nearby Eagle's Nest. Feel free to choose this option also when Eagle's Nest is opened if you prefer a much less crowded, more local site than the Eagle's Nest.

Itinerary

  • Salzburger Altstadt (Pass By)

    Immerse yourself in the magic of The Sound of Music with this all-day tour tailored for fans of the beloved film. Your journey begins at 10 AM when your private guide picks you up from your Salzburg hotel, ready to transport you back in time to the iconic locations from the movie.

    1 hour

  • Schloss Leopoldskron

From November 1st, 2021 until about May 10th, 2022 (depends on the snow conditions of the year), the Eagle's Nest direct access road is closed, alternatively, we offer to visit the Rossfeld summit instead.

Great tour! Knowledgeable guide that took us to many of the less known spots, as well as the popular spots, where the Sound of Music was filmed. Fun day!

Our guide Manfred was amazing! He was very flexible and took us places that most tourist don't see! We did not go to Eagles nest as originally planned but we got to see it from afar but did not have to take 2-3 hours out of our day to see it He was very personable and very knowledgeable! He was by far the best guide we have ever had! Highly Reccomend. Thank you Manfred! Your friends from Kansas City !!
