Linz, once primarily known as a steel city, today presents itself as a dynamic and creative metropolis. Innovative institutions such as the Ars Electronica Center, as well as bold architecture and urban development projects, define the city’s modern cityscape. Between its baroque old town, contemporary architecture and the vibrant Danube promenade, the capital of Upper Austria presents itself as a versatile centre for culture, art and urban experiences.
The fast RJX takes you from Salzburg to Linz once per hour without changing trains. With ÖBB, you can enjoy comfortable and eco-friendly travel in the shortest possible time.
Reach your destination for less with the Sparschiene ticket
ÖBB Sparschiene tickets offer journeys from Salzburg to Linz at even lower prices. Simply choose a Sparschiene offer when purchasing your ticket and you will be one step closer to a comfortable journey. It pays to be quick - each train has a limited allocation of Sparschiene tickets. So if you want to travel with ÖBB at super low fares, you can book your ticket up to 6 months in advance. This not only ensures you get a better price, but also makes planning your trip much more relaxed.
Discover Linz by public transport
The end of your train journey does not mean the end of flexible travel - with Linz public transport tickets, you can use trams, buses and the S-Bahn Oberösterreich to get straight to your destination without the hassle of looking for parking.
The Upper Austria Leisure Ticket (Freizeit-Ticket Oberösterreich) is particularly practical for excursions, allowing you to use local transport throughout the entire state for a whole day. Ideal if you’re in the mood for varied discovery tours around the region.
