Salzach and Saalach

The two main traffic arteries of the province of Salzburg are the valleys of the Salzach and the Saalach, from which some of the busiest and grandest pass routes in the Austrian Alps branch off to the south - the Grossglockner Road, the Felber Tauern Road from Mittersill into East Tirol, the approach road up the Gasteiner Tal to the Tauern Tunnel, the road over the Radstädter Tauern pass and the Katschberg.
