Salzburg with children
A stroller-friendly rhythm matters more than chasing every attraction
The old town is flat and compact, with cobbles here and there. Mix one outdoor hour with one warm indoor stop.
Attractions
Altstadt
Haus der Natur
Museumsplatz 5: an aquarium, a reptile zoo, dinosaurs and a fully hands-on science centre where children build bridges and make electricity.

Cheap plastic sledges are sold in sports shops; any gentle snowy slope will do.
Dress children in warm, waterproof layers and boots with grip; cobbles get icy. Hellbrunn’s trick fountains and the dwarf garden at Mirabell are closed in February.
