Alpine holidays and cities filled with music and history.
Austria combines Alpine valleys and lakes with cities such as Vienna, Salzburg and Innsbruck. Winter holidays often focus on skiing, while warmer months open up walking trails, cycling routes and lakeside stays. A city break offers museums, concert venues and coffee houses. The right base depends on whether you want mountain activities, a cultural itinerary or a mixture of both.

View offer: Chalet Fauner A: 7 nights in St Anton, AustriaFor a ski holiday, compare the resort altitude, terrain and lift access rather than treating all Alpine villages as interchangeable. St Anton is one option in the Arlberg region; other areas suit different experience levels and holiday styles.
Summer is a popular time for hiking and lake visits. Spring and autumn can work well for cities, but mountain transport and attractions may have seasonal closures. Winter visitors should check conditions and book any essential lessons ahead.
Austria has an extensive railway network, useful for combining cities and reaching some mountain towns. Confirm the final connection to your accommodation, particularly for late flights or ski luggage.
