Salzburg Card: Frequently Asked Questions
What does it include?
The Salzburg Card gives one free admission to each participating attraction, including Hohensalzburg Fortress with a return FestungsBahn ride and the Untersbergbahn, plus unlimited travel on selected public transport.
How much does it cost in 2026?
Adult high-season rates for the Salzburg Card in 2026 are quoted at EUR 31 for 24 hours, EUR 40 for 48 hours and EUR 46 for 72 hours, with low-season prices of EUR 28, EUR 36 and EUR 41 (checked 25 September 2026).
Is it worth it for one day?
It depends on volume. One fortress visit with funicular at EUR 19.20 plus a DomQuartier ticket at EUR 13 already exceeds the 24 hour price of the Salzburg Card, so two paid sights plus transport is the break-even point.
Do children pay?
Children aged 6 to 15 pay half the adult rate for the Salzburg Card, and several attractions already admit younger children free, such as the two under-6s per adult at Hohensalzburg Fortress.
How does it differ from the SalzburgerLand Card?
The Salzburg Card is a 24 to 72 hour city product covering urban attractions and transport, whereas the SalzburgerLand Card runs 6 or 12 days across the wider province between 1 May and 1 November 2026.
