Rich with history and fantastic scenery. The crystal lakes and summer meadows attract thousands of holiday makers to Austria all year round.
A holiday in Austria is a great way to experience the scale and grandeur of mountains. With many villages sitting at their base often having cable cars that travel directly to the peaks.
Among these mountain villages are Alpbach, Lech and St Gilgen which are considered some of the prettiest mountain villages in the country. The villages are peaceful in the summer months, perched around and even on the mountainside. They are a unique place to experience the culture of Austria.
For larger towns, there’s sophisticated Kitzbuhel, traditional St Anton, scenic Kaprun and the bustling, down-to-earth resorts of Mayrhofen and St Johann to choose from.
Austria is also known for its wonderful churches and palaces and the enchanting folk tales that fill the mountains. With local events through the summer such as St Johann’s dumpling festival to the Kitzbuhel wine festival you can be sure to get the best taste of culture while you’re there.
