Austria offers a great variety of activities all-year round, but winter is special in the Alpine Republic. Some say that Austrians are born on skis, well, that is partly true. True is also that Austrians know at least a hundred ways to enjoy the cold season. Skiing, snowboarding, ice-skating, cross-country, ice-climbing, long winter strolls, horse-drawn sledges, ski-hiking, hot wine, Christmas markets, and much more await Austria’s visitors.

Choose between internationally famous skiing resorts, where stars and millionaires spend their holidays, and small, picturesque villages almost untouched by modern life. No matter what you prefer, you certainly encounter a great mix of sports, culture, tradition, and nature. Take a look and find the perfect location for your winter vacation in the Alpine Republic!
