- Description
-
The passage is largely without ascents and you pass the main towns of the Pongau: from St. Johann im Pongau via Bischofshofen and Pfarrwerfen to Werfen. You can also discover other sights, such as the Pongau Cathedral in St. Johann and the famous ski jump in Bischofshofen. And of course there are many places to stop along the way to enjoy the hospitality of the Pongau.The former archbishop's fortified castle from the 11th century invites you on a journey through time. An unforgettable highlight are the flight demonstrations of the historic Landesfalkenhof with mainly native birds of prey in free flight.
