Austria

The white-capped peaks, thick snow and exhilarating pistes of the Alps make Austria a wonderful place for a winter holiday.

Visitors can ski, toboggan or snowboard to their heart’s content and finish off the day by enjoying the renowned Austrian hospitality and après-ski.

When the snow melts, though, Austria has even more to offer. In the summer, the high peaks, green valleys and charming log chalets of the Tirol make it a walker’s delight.

Austria’s cities are similarly enchanting. Visitors are drawn to Vienna’s imperial history, Salzburg’s baroque old town and Innsbruck’s spectacular setting in the heart of the Alps.
