Staying in Mülln, Salzburg
Mülln sits where the riverbank and the northern end of the Mönchsberg offer two different ways into a day out. Choose the riverside for a straightforward walk toward the center, or head uphill for paths above the rooftops. Around Müllner Hauptstraße, check whether your accommodation faces the road and how its entrance connects to the river. A short distance on the map can include a noticeable slope.

Is the walk into the center hilly?
The riverside route avoids the Mönchsberg climb. Some accommodation and local sights sit above it, so check the approach to your particular address.
Can I use Mülln-Altstadt station for every train journey?
No. It is a local rail stop, and many longer-distance services use Salzburg Hauptbahnhof. Check your train's listed stops before choosing where to board.
Should I plan the Mönchsberg walk after dinner?
Daylight makes the paths and junctions easier to follow. After an evening meal, the riverside is a simpler return route if you are unfamiliar with the hill.
