Dear Intervac-friends!
Salzburg is wellknown for its historical center, the castle, the classical music festival in summer, Mozart, the surroundings with all the beautiful mountains and lakes, this is ideal  for hiking, watersports and swimming.

  We, Birgit and Hans (both of us teacher) and our kids Christoph and Eva (14 and 12 years old), live very close to the historical center ( about 20 min to walk) in a small, narrow lane with little traffic. The town of Salzburg is ideal for biking, the whole city offers bikelanes. We bike often  along the river Salzach to swim (Salzachsee, 20 min by bike), to the center (10 min), to the mountains surrounding Salzburg (45min) or to Hellbrunn-castle (30 min).

 Around our house we have a nice garden with slide, swing, trampoline, wooden tree house for kids, small stable and garden for our four hens, terrace, possibility for barbecues, small soccergoal, table tennis and covered parking. We live on the first and second level ( about 150m²) with direct access to our  private garden and terrace (see above) . Nice neighbours live seperatly  on the other levels (Barbara and Birgit F.), they may use the frontyard too, but not our private part .

We have a nice, shy  cat. "Schnurrli" is entering the lower level of our rooms ( not the sleeping rooms!). Normally she stays outside or in a small room next to the door to the garden, she is able to enter or to leave by her own. If you dont like contact with our cat, keep the door beetween livingroom and gardenroom closed. We only ask you to give her sometimes some food.

In our garden there is a stable with our four hens, so you will have fresh eggs! They only need fresh water and food every second day. If you are away for a longer period, we can ask our neighbours to feed them during your absence.

The famous lakedistrict "Salzkammergut" (pictures below) is reached in  about 30 minutes by car.
