Despite the magical atmosphere and overall beauty of the place  due to the increasing popularity the problem with accessibility arose. As more and more people visited the Market, the transport and parking had to be managed accordingly. As from the local people point of view the market  located  outside Salzburg city center it is quite easy accessible by  bus. Although, if you are international tourist who visit Salzburg for a first time it is recommended to use other kinds of transportation  ( car, or couch ) since the information given about the city buses is often written only in German which can be a problematic issue for those who do not speak the language. However if you choose use the public transport the best choice would be to take bus number 25 from Salzburg Seniorenheim Nonntal to Salzburg Schloss Hellbrunn.
