Austria
Austria lies in the middle of Europe and is also known as the Alpine Republic. The name comes from the fact that about 63% of the country is covered by the Eastern Alps. That makes Austria a perfect holiday destination for all those who love to be outside in the mountains. Whether hiking, mountain biking, climbing, snowshoeing or skiing, there is a place to be found in Austria for all activities. With over 780 3000m peaks in Austria, you won’t run out of mountains to climb anytime soon. In addition, there are countless of kilometers of hiking trails that do not lead you directly to a summit, but instead into beautiful valleys, over mountain ridges with breathtaking views or past raging mountain streams. In winter, the more than 400 ski areas provide pure variety. Over the past few years, winter fun apart from alpine skiing has also been expanded. In many places there are opportunities for cross-country skiing, snowshoeing or tobogganing. Austria also has a lot to offer away from the mountains. Water enthusiasts can let off steam in the various lakes or get their money’s worth with canyoning.
But Austria is also perfect as a holiday destination for people who prefer things a little quieter. The countless wellness hotels invite you to relax and unwind. And the mountain railways now enable everyone to experience the view from a summit.
