Felberbach

Coming from Hintersee, this approximately 6-12 m wide mountain stream flows directly into the Salzach at Mittersill, near the hotel. Fishable along its entire 12 km length, you’ll find plenty of medium to large pools. Partly difficult to wade due to high banks, but fish usually hold right along the shore at these spots.
