A charming, quieter quarter just west of the old town — Mülln, with its famous monastery beer garden, the Augustiner brewery, riverside walks and a relaxed, local feel beneath the Mönchsberg cliff. Authentic, leafy and good value, a short stroll from the sights; the base for travellers who want a calmer, more local stay with a great beer garden and river walks, minutes from the centre. A relaxed, characterful alternative. Genuine and pleasant.

- 7.Mönchsberg walk & Museum der Moderne — Rising above the old town is the Mönchsberg, a wooded clifftop ridge with a lovely walking path and the finest views over the baroque rooftops, domes and fortress of Salzburg. Take the lift up from the old town (or walk), stroll the leafy paths to the viewpoints, and visit the striking Museum der Moderne modern-art gallery and its terrace café at the top. A peaceful, green escape with knockout panoramas, right above the bustle. A wonderful, easy way to see the city from above; go at sunset for the golden light. Beautiful and calm.
- 8.Augustiner Bräustübl beer garden — Salzburg's most beloved beer hall — the Augustiner Bräustübl in Mülln, a huge, centuries-old monastery brewery where you pour your own stein of fresh, unfiltered beer from wooden barrels and enjoy it in a vast, leafy beer garden or wood-panelled halls, with hearty food from the deli stalls. Boisterous, atmospheric and authentic, it's a wonderful, only-in-Salzburg experience and a favourite of locals. Grab a stein, a pretzel and a spot under the chestnut trees, and soak up the convivial buzz. A tasty, characterful highlight. Prost!
