Tucked along the Inn, directly opposite Bavaria, Schärding is a town whose character is shaped by a river that has long marked an international border and trading corridor. The compact old centre is defined by the Stadtplatz and the Silberzeile, a row of brightly coloured town houses whose Baroque façades are among the town’s best-known features. Schärding belongs to the Innviertel, Upper Austria’s western region, where Austrian and Bavarian influences meet in local speech, food and building traditions. Walk beneath the arcades, follow the riverside, and make the town a calm stop on an Inn valley itinerary.
