View of the Salzach River

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Salzach is a right tributary of the Inn River and, at 225 km long, its longest and most water-rich. It flows through the province of Salzburg (Austria) and Bavaria (Germany), is one of the great Alpine rivers, and drains the eastern Hohe Tauern mountains to the north.

The ancient Latin name of the Salzach was Iuvarus or Ivarus. The name came from the Celtic river deity Iuvavo, the divine personification of the Salzach. The Romans later adopted this god's name, slightly Latinized, for the Roman city of Iuvavum.

However, only the lower reaches and the Saalach, which flows into the Salzach, were called Ivarus, since the upper reaches had their own name, Isonta.

The Salzach owes its current name to the salt shipping that operated on the river until the 19th century; the historical center of salt shipping was Laufen. Until after 1800, the river was generally called Salza (i.e., like a Lower Austrian-Styrian river).

Heinrich Kiener Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Heinrich-Kiener-Haus is located at 1,800 meters above sea level, surrounded by alpine pastures on the Hochgründeck, one of Austria's most beautiful panoramic mountains. It is widely known for its stunning panoramic views over the Salzach Valley with the Hochkönig, Tennengebirge, and Berchtesgaden Alps, the Hohe Tauern with the Großglockner, the Dachstein Mountains, and even the Carinthian peaks. Sunrise and sunset here are a truly special experience.
