About AustriaNearly nine million Austrians have German as their official language. Vienna is the capital and can be called on +43. Great for all sorts of outdoor activities in summer and winter, as there are six mountains over 3,700m. In winter, head for the Austrian Alps and go skiing, snowboarding, langlaufing, mountain climbing or hiking. Eat and drink at the picturesque mountain restaurants.
Skiing in Austria
In summer, try glacier skiing, mountain biking, long walks or even sailing. Then there is always golf, para-gliding and many more activities you can do. Book your ski holiday car hire early, as they do go quickly.
Some of the top ski resorts in Austria include Kitzbuhl, Obergurghl, St Anton, Lech, Zell em Ziller, Ischgl, Oberlech and Soll. St Anton suits the younger, harder skier generation. It is a must do resort for all skiers. Go for the apres-ski at the Moosevert & Kangaroo bar, at the bottom the in infamous red 2 run. However, a 30 minute bus trip to Lech offers a gentler skiing experience.
