Mittersill Austria

Mittersill is a small city in the south-west of Salzburg, more specifically the Pinzgau region. Mittersill has approximately 5,500 residents and is the major centre of the Oberpinzgau area, a thinly populated region that partly belongs to the National Park Hohe Tauern. Mittersill can be found in the Salzach river valley, at a traditionally important spot for trade and transportation. It lies at an altitude of 790 metres (which is pretty low by Pinzgau standards) and is well-known as a transit spot between Bavaria, Italy and Salzburg. That being said, Mittersill is still a little mountain village when it comes to general appearance: Much more harmful to that was the rise as a hiking and skiing centre rather than increased traffic. However, tourism′s side-effects were generally rather positive for Mittersill, which due to its remoteness is in a structurally rather battered area.
