Austria

Waltz on over to Austria for music, history, culinary delights and outdoor activities. For those touched by the music of Mozart, visit his hometown of Salzburg where baroque architecture and cobbled streets abound. In the capital, Vienna, you will find not only beautiful palaces but a thriving modern culture too. Head for the hills as Austria’s Alps boast some of the best ski runs such as the Harakiri at Mayrhofen. In the summer there are numerous hikes to enjoy including around Villach or the valleys in Tyrol. Finally, you will find your own muse at the lakes of Salzkammergut or the spas of Bad Ischi.
