Austria is a beautiful country to explore and a place that\u2019s so much more than its capital city, Vienna. Now, that\u2019s not saying\u00a0\u00a0is bad (it\u2019s actually amazing) but there really is a shed load of other beautiful and picturesque spots to see. That\u2019s why I wanted to show you some of my very favourite and best places in Austria to visit on your next trip.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Austria<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"A<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Perched within central Europe, Austria is a relatively small country that\u2019s pretty easy to get to Though don\u2019t let its size put you off, it has so many incredible and easily the best places in Austria to visit dotted all across the place.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That being said, with so many places to see, it can actually be hard to prioritise on your trip. This is why I wanted to share some really cool spots I hope you\u2019ll love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1.) Vienna<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Okay, so we can\u2019t mention all the best places in Austria to visit without naming its capital city. And you know what, Vienna is a stunner of a place to explore. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the years, we\u2019ve visited Vienna quite a few times and totally love how chilled-out, historic and really cool the city is. It has so much going for it. Once you arrive, make sure to visit the old centre, see Schonbrunn Palace and visit the State Opera House for a show (which are reasonably priced).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"The<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Afterwards, head over to the Museum Quarter and delve into all the treasures that the city houses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Though, if that doesn\u2019t catch your eye, head out on a hotrod tour of Vienna itself. You\u2019ll drive your very own dinky car all across the city\u2026 it\u2019s so much fun! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Oh yeah, and for a Sunday afternoon treat, head out for a where you\u2019ll be gorging on the best wines and snacks from the vineyards at\u00a0Nussberg Hill itself. It really is a treat.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For dinner, don\u2019t forget to pop to\u00a0\u00a0which is so yummy, Historically,\u00a0 people would sign the walls here, and to this day, you can still see the signatures of; Wagner, Beethoven and Mozart all across the ceilings.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"The<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re feeling extra adventurous, head to\u00a0(in the outskirts of Vienna) for a six-course meal of Viennese escargot!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"The<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Yep, a six-course meal made entirely of snails (including dessert). It certainly was an experience that I\u2019m glad I tried.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

2.) Hohenems<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"12<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Perched right in the west of the country, Hohenemes is one of the best places in Austria to visit if you\u2019re a love delving into the history of a place. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, one spot you can\u2019t miss is the 12th-century castle of Altems which is great for a stroll around. Oh, and another place to see is the Stadtpfarrkirche or parish church that dates back almost 500 years. There really are so many historic buildings that you\u2019ll be spoilt for choice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Better still, Hohenems is surrounded by those dramatic Austrian mountains. This all means that there\u2019s plenty of opportunities to ski the slopes in winter or follow the trails in the warmer months of summer.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3.) Ehrwald<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"12<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Perched within the gorgeous district of Reutte, Ehrwald is one of the best places in Austria to visit if you love the outdoors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nestled right on the border with Germany, it\u2019s towered over by the\u00a0\u00a0that\u2019s considered to be Germany\u2019s tallest mountain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"12<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Once you\u2019re here, make sure to head out on the hundreds of trails that criss-cross this region. Afterwards, pop into\u00a0Holzerstubn for the best beef dumpling stew. It\u2019s a proper heart-warming treat.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4.) Melk\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"The<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Further down the Danube, about 60-minutes drive from Wachau, is the stunning\u00a0\u00a0that is great to explore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"12<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Once you\u2019re here, spend a few hours exploring Melk Abbey and see the stunning interiors of this monastery that overlooks the whole region. Now, you can\u2019t take pictures inside but trust me when I say it\u2019s stunning. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

5.) Zell am See<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"10<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"Learn<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Nestled on the banks of Lake Zell,\u00a0is one of the best places in Austria to visit in any season.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You see, in the winter months, Zell am See turns into a winter wonderland for skiing (where I first learned), snowshoeing and lots of apres. That being said, the summer is just as good. Just make sure to head out and enjoy the countryside, it really is a special region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6.) Gmunden\u00a0<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"12<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Gmunden is the kind of town that has it all! Pretty castles, historic churches, and the banks of Traunsee Lake easily make this one of the best places in Austria to visit on your trip around the country. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apparently, Gmunden was once a place frequented only by the rich and famous with Russian Tsars and German Kaisers among the visitors over the centuries. Nowadays, you don\u2019t need to be of royal blood to visit and you can easily stop by for a day or two exploring the area. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"12<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Once you\u2019re here, make sure to visit\u00a0Schloss Ort, which is a castle that sits out in the lake itself. Afterwards, pop over to see the\u00a0Rathaus and finish off with a tour of the lake itself. It really is a beautiful area.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7.) Hallstatt<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"12<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Hallstatt often claims it\u2019s the oldest village in Austria but I\u2019m still not too sure how true that is. Now, one thing is for certain though \u2013 Hallstatt is truly stunning! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Filled to the brim with alpine lodges and little streets, Hallstatt is now a  UNESCO World Heritage Site that\u2019s been protected for generations to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, it can be a little bit of a trial to get to the town itself, especially as the train station is across the other side of the lake. That being said, you can hop on board a ferry and wander around the town for a day trip for sure \u2013 just remember not to miss the last boat back. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"12<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

After arriving, wander through the little streets, chill out in the central square and just enjoy the beauty of this one-of-a-kind place. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oh, and if you\u2019re in the area, pop over to the nearby\u00a0Dachstein Ice Caves, too. They\u2019re incredible to see. Just be warned, there are like 600 steps to climb here, so it\u2019s not for the faint-hearted.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8.) Wachau<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

is one of those areas that might not immediately spring to mind when thinking of Austria, but it certainly should. Only around 90-minutes from Vienna, it\u2019s a beautiful area that\u2019s filled to the brim with local vineyards, river trails and historic castles.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"A<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Once you arrive, head out on the Wachau World Heritage Trail and stop off at places like; Spitz, Joching and the Holzapfel Vineyards for a tasty tipple or two. After all, you\u2019ve earned it with all that walking! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"A<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"A<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"A<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Also, for a tasty bite, pop into\u00a0\u00a0Gasthof Goldenes Schiff (in Spitz) for a traditional Austrian lunch. We had to literally role ourselves out of here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9.) Wildsee Lake & Seefeld<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"12<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For me, Seefeld is easily up there as one of the best places in Austria to visit whatever the season or time of year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you\u2019re here, make sure to visit the Church of St. Oswald or the Seekirche or Lake Church on Lake Wildsee. You can actually paddle and swim on Lake Wildsee in the summer months, which is perfect on those really hot days. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you fancy a hike in summer, take the trails up to Kaltwassersee and see the incredible views over the region. It\u2019s stunning. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Ayush Tours Jaipur","og_description":"Austria is a beautiful country to explore and a place that\u2019s so much more than its capital city, Vienna. Now, that\u2019s not saying\u00a0\u00a0is bad (it\u2019s actually amazing) but there really is a shed load of other beautiful and picturesque spots to see. That\u2019s why I wanted to show you some of my very favourite and best places in Austria to visit on your next trip.\u00a0 Perched within central Europe, Austria is a relatively small country that\u2019s pretty easy to get to Though don\u2019t let its size put you off, it has so many incredible and easily the best places in Austria to visit dotted all across the place.\u00a0 That being said, with so many places to see, it can actually be hard to prioritise on your trip. This is why I wanted to share some really cool spots I hope you\u2019ll love. 1.) Vienna Okay, so we can\u2019t mention all the best places in Austria to visit without naming its capital city. And you know what, Vienna is a stunner of a place to explore.  Over the years, we\u2019ve visited Vienna quite a few times and totally love how chilled-out, historic and really cool the city is. It has so much going for it. Once you arrive, make sure to visit the old centre, see Schonbrunn Palace and visit the State Opera House for a show (which are reasonably priced). Afterwards, head over to the Museum Quarter and delve into all the treasures that the city houses. Though, if that doesn\u2019t catch your eye, head out on a hotrod tour of Vienna itself. You\u2019ll drive your very own dinky car all across the city\u2026 it\u2019s so much fun!  Oh yeah, and for a Sunday afternoon treat, head out for a where you\u2019ll be gorging on the best wines and snacks from the vineyards at\u00a0Nussberg Hill itself. It really is a treat.\u00a0 For dinner, don\u2019t forget to pop to\u00a0\u00a0which is so yummy, Historically,\u00a0 people would sign the walls here, and to this day, you can still see the signatures of; Wagner, Beethoven and Mozart all across the ceilings.\u00a0 If you\u2019re feeling extra adventurous, head to\u00a0(in the outskirts of Vienna) for a six-course meal of Viennese escargot! Yep, a six-course meal made entirely of snails (including dessert). It certainly was an experience that I\u2019m glad I tried.   2.) Hohenems Perched right in the west of the country, Hohenemes is one of the best places in Austria to visit if you\u2019re a love delving into the history of a place.  Now, one spot you can\u2019t miss is the 12th-century castle of Altems which is great for a stroll around. Oh, and another place to see is the Stadtpfarrkirche or parish church that dates back almost 500 years. There really are so many historic buildings that you\u2019ll be spoilt for choice.  Better still, Hohenems is surrounded by those dramatic Austrian mountains. This all means that there\u2019s plenty of opportunities to ski the slopes in winter or follow the trails in the warmer months of summer.\u00a0 3.) Ehrwald Perched within the gorgeous district of Reutte, Ehrwald is one of the best places in Austria to visit if you love the outdoors. Nestled right on the border with Germany, it\u2019s towered over by the\u00a0\u00a0that\u2019s considered to be Germany\u2019s tallest mountain. Once you\u2019re here, make sure to head out on the hundreds of trails that criss-cross this region. Afterwards, pop into\u00a0Holzerstubn for the best beef dumpling stew. It\u2019s a proper heart-warming treat.\u00a0 4.) Melk\u00a0 Further down the Danube, about 60-minutes drive from Wachau, is the stunning\u00a0\u00a0that is great to explore. Once you\u2019re here, spend a few hours exploring Melk Abbey and see the stunning interiors of this monastery that overlooks the whole region. Now, you can\u2019t take pictures inside but trust me when I say it\u2019s stunning.  5.) Zell am See Nestled on the banks of Lake Zell,\u00a0is one of the best places in Austria to visit in any season.\u00a0 You see, in the winter months, Zell am See turns into a winter wonderland for skiing (where I first learned), snowshoeing and lots of apres. That being said, the summer is just as good. Just make sure to head out and enjoy the countryside, it really is a special region. 6.) Gmunden\u00a0 Gmunden is the kind of town that has it all! Pretty castles, historic churches, and the banks of Traunsee Lake easily make this one of the best places in Austria to visit on your trip around the country.  Apparently, Gmunden was once a place frequented only by the rich and famous with Russian Tsars and German Kaisers among the visitors over the centuries. Nowadays, you don\u2019t need to be of royal blood to visit and you can easily stop by for a day or two exploring the area.  Once you\u2019re here, make sure to visit\u00a0Schloss Ort, which is a castle that sits out in the lake itself. Afterwards, pop over to see the\u00a0Rathaus and finish off with a tour of the lake itself. It really is a beautiful area.\u00a0 7.) Hallstatt Hallstatt often claims it\u2019s the oldest village in Austria but I\u2019m still not too sure how true that is. Now, one thing is for certain though \u2013 Hallstatt is truly stunning!  Filled to the brim with alpine lodges and little streets, Hallstatt is now a  UNESCO World Heritage Site that\u2019s been protected for generations to come. Now, it can be a little bit of a trial to get to the town itself, especially as the train station is across the other side of the lake. That being said, you can hop on board a ferry and wander around the town for a day trip for sure \u2013 just remember not to miss the last boat back.  After arriving, wander through the little streets, chill out in the central square and just enjoy the beauty of this one-of-a-kind place.  Oh, and if you\u2019re in the area, pop over to the nearby\u00a0Dachstein Ice Caves, too. They\u2019re incredible to see. Just be warned, there are like 600 steps to climb here, so […]","og_url":"https:\/\/ayushtoursjaipur.com\/index.php\/2020\/01\/28\/austria-to-visit\/","og_site_name":"Ayush Tours Jaipur","article_publisher":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Ayush-Tours-Jaipur-670592113397684\/","article_published_time":"2020-01-28T11:14:54+00:00","article_modified_time":"2021-02-02T05:47:45+00:00","og_image":[{"width":1500,"height":1000,"url":"https:\/\/ayushtoursjaipur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Austriaa.jpg","type":"image\/jpeg"}],"author":"admin","twitter_card":"summary_large_image","twitter_misc":{"Written by":"admin","Est. reading time":"6 minutes"},"schema":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Article","@id":"https:\/\/ayushtoursjaipur.com\/index.php\/2020\/01\/28\/austria-to-visit\/#article","isPartOf":{"@id":"https:\/\/ayushtoursjaipur.com\/index.php\/2020\/01\/28\/austria-to-visit\/"},"author":{"name":"admin","@id":"https:\/\/ayushtoursjaipur.com\/#\/schema\/person\/a6ab0ac12d776e4d6e5c71601e85a5b4"},"headline":"Austria To Visit","datePublished":"2020-01-28T11:14:54+00:00","dateModified":"2021-02-02T05:47:45+00:00","mainEntityOfPage":{"@id":"https:\/\/ayushtoursjaipur.com\/index.php\/2020\/01\/28\/austria-to-visit\/"},"wordCount":1276,"publisher":{"@id":"https:\/\/ayushtoursjaipur.com\/#organization"},"articleSection":["Blog"],"inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https:\/\/ayushtoursjaipur.com\/index.php\/2020\/01\/28\/austria-to-visit\/","url":"https:\/\/ayushtoursjaipur.com\/index.php\/2020\/01\/28\/austria-to-visit\/","name":"Austria To Visit -
