From the Field: Austria Family Adventure Vacation


"What a great trip! It was one of the most beautiful vacations we've ever been on. Just gorgeous. The colors, the scenery, the friendly little towns and the wonderful way the guides managed the trip. It was all perfect. My family loved it!"

Austria Family: Family Fun in the Alps

Austria - Family Fun in the Alps Family Adventure

Castles, cable cars and glacier-carved canyons in the Austrian Alps

With soaring, snow-capped peaks, thundering waterfalls, fortress-topped hills and elaborate cave systems, Austria brings out the adventurer in everyone.

Pedal your way through Mittersill and Zell to a backdrop of 14,000-year-old gorges, azure lakes and towering Alps. Take a spin on a toboggan in the hills of Hochkönig. Catch a scenic ride on a cable car, hike down into the Salzach valley and – for a true adrenaline rush – opt for a tandem paraglide or an afternoon of glacier skiing. Swoosh down the giant slide at the entrance to the Hallein salt mines and feel the thunder of rushing water at the Lichtensteinklamm gorge.

In Salzburg, bike along the Salzach River past homes decked in flowers, explore the Hellbrunn Castle and its trick fountains, and take a ride through town on a horse-drawn carriage. By night, relax over a leisurely meal and toast to another day of family fun in the Austrian Alps!
