Lueg Pass is located approximately south of Golling an der Salzach in Hallein District, Salzburg. Lueg Pass is crossed by Highway B159 (Salzachtal Straße) as it follows the Salzach. The highway rises to an elevation of and enters a -long tunnel parallel to the narrowest point of the Salzachöfen Gorge. A hotel is presently located at the height of the pass, above the tunnel. Both the A10 motorway and Salzburg-Tyrol Railway, though largely following the Salzach valley, bypass the narrow Lueg Pass through parallel tunnels under the Hagen Mountains on the opposite side of the Salzach.
