Salzkammergut
The famous Salzkammergut extends to three Austrian provinces: Salzburg, Upper Austria and Styria. And you won’t believe there are around 80 beautiful lakes located in this stunning area. No wonder then, that even the Austrian Emperor spent his holidays here every year.

Wachau
You will be able to collect many magical memories during a trip to the Wachau. The mighty Danube winds its way through this beautiful patch of earth, which appeals to cyclists, hikers and above all, wine lovers. The sparkling whites from the Wachau are among the best wines in Austria and can compete with their international rivals. Come on! What are you waiting for?

Danube
The second longest river in Europe offers perfect conditions for a successful hiking trip in the great outdoors.

Useful information about your hike tour in Austria
Austria's climate
The climate in Austria has proven to be ideal hiking weather. Despite some rain showers, the climate in the Alpine republic is very pleasant. You can look forward to sunny hiking days with pleasant temperatures. Summers in Austria can sometimes be very warm. What luck that there is almost always a lake nearby to cool you down. And autumn days also promise pleasantly warm temperatures where you can really enjoy hiking.
Austria's cuisine
Admittedly, not all the famous recipes of the delicious Austrian cuisine really come from Austria. Influences from Bohemia, Bavaria, Italy and of course Hungary have made Austria the great culinary nation it is today. Of course you know all the delicacies such as Wiener Schnitzel, a savoury beef goulash, a delicious roast pork with Stöcklkraut and potatoes and the famous Sacher Torte. But have you ever tasted a Tafelspitz, heard of Topfennockerln or tried Innviertler Bratknödel?
Austria's culture and traditions
Have you ever heard of the magic word Alles Walzer? Within seconds, these two little words can make a whole crowd of people in Austria sway their bodies in three-four time. The name waltz comes from the expression "to waltz", i.e. to be on the move. At 60 beats per minute, the Viennese waltz is the fastest dance in the world dance programme. The popular dance developed in the 18th century and finally became a worldwide success in the 19th century thanks to pieces of music such as An der schönen blauen Donau by Johann Strauss Sohn.
