The sprawling mountains of landlocked Austria make for an adventurer’s dream, with parts of the Southern Limestone Alps, Northern Alps and Central Eastern Alps all to be found, and only around a quarter of the country low lying. Whether you want to hit the slopes for world-class skiing and snow-boarding, take a hair-raising bike ride down the mountains, go rafting or explore the outstanding scenery by foot, you’ll find plenty of exhilarating adventures in this mountain playground!
Of the diverse mountain scenes, the Eastern Alps constitute the largest area of Austria at almost two thirds of the total land. The second biggest mountain area – though lower than the Alps – is the Austrian granite plateau in the north at around one-tenth of the land. Austria is almost 600km in length and stretches from Lake Constance in the Alps on the border with Switzerland and Germany, to the huge Neusiedler See on the border with Hungary in the east, offering a rich and varied landscape in between.
Austria is famous for its skiing and winters are certainly chilly, but visitors will be pleasantly surprised in summer when temperatures averagely sit between 15 and 25 C. The alpine climate of course dominates, with most of Austria in the cool or temperate climate zone with humid winds. Head eastward – along the Danube Valley and in the Pannonian Plane – and you’ll find a friendlier climate with less rain.
With a population of around 1.7 million, Austria’s capital Vienna is also its largest city. As well as outstanding surroundings, Vienna offers famous sights such as the Cathedral, the famous Hundertwasserhaus, palaces, romantic balls and “Heurigen” (wine taverns). Salzburg is another well-known destination; the city – on the banks of the Salzach River – has world-famous baroque architecture, is birthplace to Mozart and was the setting for the The Sound of Music. You should also check out pretty Innsbruck, which is located in a broad valley and surrounded by amazing Alpine scenery.Show less...
