Werfen, which is over 800 years old, is in a perfect traffic location. A beautiful market with old town houses in the heart of Salzburg Land. The town at the foot of Hohenwerfen Castle has a unique character: small enough to be cosy, old enough to exude historical flair and on top of that, top sights, alpine hospitality and culinary delights await you in the midst of the imposing mountains of the Salzach Valley. Easily accessible by motorway (A10) and train and only 40 kilometres from Salzburg Airport.<\/span><\/p>\n
