Many visitors to Austria comment that it is almost like southern climes, warm and lots of blue skies!

Yes, but there are still some rain y days, otherwise Austria would not be the beautifil meadows and forests.

Many companies and managers considering a venue for group meeting and events invaribly ask the question. Is it cold and does it snow all year in Austria? The answer is NO, we have 4 seasons; Warm in Spring time, Hot in summer time, Golden in the Autumn with warm sunny days when you can still sit outside and of course lots of snow in the winter!

So as a meetings & incentives destination Austria probably has it all.

This month we celebrate the Christian festival of Easter. Particularly as the time of Lent comes to an end, and we can start again on the cakes and chocolate, we have so deprived ourselves since last month!

Easter, also called Pascha, Resurrection Sunday, or Easter Sunday of the Resurrection of the Lord, among other names, is a Christian festival and cultural holiday commemorating the resurrection of Jesus from the dead, described in the New Testament as having occurred on the third day of his burial following his crucifixion by the Romans at Calvary c. 30 AD.

For Children all over, Easter means lots of chocolate eggs, & chocolate bunny rabbits.

February 2025

 February tends to be the month that all hotels and restaurants are re-decorating and preparing for the coming Carnival week. Fasching is for families, so no need to think who will look after the children at home if we visit Austria? No problem, bring your children with you!!

This year Fasching (carnival) starts on 1st March. The daytime tends to be for the children and the evenings for the adults. Check out last year’s carnival, it is in German but it is mostly photos, so you will get the gist of the fun and silliness.

The Austrian Romantic Road enables cultural and culinary travel between Salzburg and Vienna. The track offers an overwhelming abundance of big and small attractions. UNESCO World Heritage Sites, such as the Baroque and Festival City of Salzburg, Hallstatt or the pile dwellings on Lake Mondsee, are on the way as well as the unique cities of the summer resort idyll Salzkammergut.

Tracht is a traditional garment (Dirndl & Lederhosen) or a dress code typically associated with Austria and Bavaria. It is the Sunday-best that you would have in your wardrobe. It is mostly worn on special occasions such as important festivals, Easter, Christmas, weddings, etc. They are often richly decorated, and the quality of the work represents a sign of the riches and social status of the person wearing it. In the broadest meaning, it is just synonym for everything you wear, including clothing, jewellery, hairstyle, make-up, accessories and insignia.
