Moenchsberg The Mönchsberg ("monks mountain") is the largest of Salzburgs three city mountains ( Kapuziner-, Mönchs- and Rainberg).

Several paths, leading up and through the mountains woods invite you for a walk with breathtaking views over the Old and New Town of Salzburg.

Besides a lot of nature, the old fortification walls and structures are of interest for hikers.

Besides modern history, the first remains of settlements of Salzburg can be found on the Mönchsberg. These trace back to the Neolithic (4.500 - 2.000 b.C.)! Also the Romans settled on the Mönchsberg and grew wine up there. This tradition has been readopted lately!
