Experience one of the most iconic Sound of Music filming locations on a refreshing winter hike above Werfen. This easy trail leads you through a quiet, snow-covered forest and up to the meadow where Maria and the children started the famous “Do-Re-Mi” scene. The route is 1.4 km each way with around 200 meters of elevation gain—a steady but manageable climb for anyone with basic fitness. As we walk, you’ll hear the story behind the making of the film in Austria and learn more about the real von Trapp family whose life inspired Hollywood. The mix of facts, behind-the-scenes moments, and the natural beauty of the path gives the hike a genuine sense of discovery. When the forest finally opens, you step straight into the panoramic meadow used in the movie. Surrounded by the dramatic peaks of the Tennengebirge, it’s the perfect place to take a break, enjoy a small snack, and admire the views that made this location unforgettable. After our pause, we return down the same trail, relaxed and warmed up from the climb. Back in Werfen, you can explore the nearby Hohenwerfen castle on your own. This winter hike is great if you are a fan of the movie or interested on seen more of the Alps.
