November

November is the preparation time for the coming advent, when many hotels are closed to re-decorate, for Christmas time.

October is the Wolfgangsee Lauf. This is a marathon run around the Lake. 42 km and 27km plus a half run at 10 km.

It take place on 14/15th October and attracts runners from all over Europe and in fact the world!!

September is the time when Austrians get out their Dirndls and lederhosen. They enjoy the last days of the warm sunny weather, before the wintertime, for the celebration of the Oktoberfest.

Austria, in general, is the perfect place for the Oktoberfest. The culture and customs of Bavaria and Austria are very similar, and love for the beer is everywhere. So, almost every town of this beautiful Alpine country has its own version of the Oktoberfest.

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.
