can this be done in one day

I only have one day in Salzburg (late October) and would like to see as much as possible. Can I see Hellbrunn in the morning and then have time to see the fortress, st. peters church, cemetary and the salzberg cathedral in the afternoon. (and still have time for a pastry or three). Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Yes, you can

I suggest that you leave Hellbrun to the last. The other sites are virtually all within walking distance of each other.

Hellbrunn is 5km from the center of town, on the same side of the river. After seeing the sites of the town you then canr decide whether to go there by taxi. I%26#39;m not sure what the bus connections are.

Hello,

Yes, Treplow is right, you can do these in a day. If you%26#39;re arriving by train you%26#39;ll find the bus station right outside the train station. If you wanted to go to Hellbrunn first you will need bus No. 25. Make sure you get on it going the right way and ask for Hellbrunn.

There is a lovely avenue (Hellbrunner Allee) along which you could walk back to the old town but if you%26#39;re short on time it would be advisable to take the bus or a taxi back. Ask for the old town and the driver will advise you where to get off. You can then spend a leisurely afternoon seeing the sights. They are all very close together so you can see most of the tourist attractions. Several buses go back to the train station or you could walk there, through Mirabelgarten, on your way back.

YES! You can do it! I did it all in one day in July. You can go online and get a description of the Salzburg card and see if it is worthwhile for you. Watch opening and closing times. I started with the cable car since it is opened the earliest and planned on visiting Mozart%26#39;s Residence last since it is opened until 8 pm in July. Summer opening times are longer.

Bus 25 will get you withing walking distance of the major sights.

Here%26#39;s the link to my report:
