Semmering - mountain railroad

In Austria you'll find the first railroad in Europe (dating from 1854) with a normal gauge running through the mountains and the alpine Semmering Pass (955 meters above sea level)-between the villages of Gloggnitz and Mürzzuschlag. It is 41 kilometers long, on which it overcomes sharp curves and 457 meters of elevation difference, passing through various tunnels, viaducts and bridges. The combination of natural mountainous landscapes with such a pioneering feat of railroad engineering still delights and inspires appreciation today.

Hallstatt - instagram town

This small town is considered the most beautiful in Austria and appears in most lists of places to visit in the country. Although its population is only a little over 700, it is visited by hundreds of thousands of tourists every year. This is mainly due to Instagram views of the church and houses cascading down the slopes of the mountains, and the fact that the town served as the prototype for the fairy tale "Iceberg Land." Hallstatt is located on Lake Hallstatt in the Salsburg Alps.

Although Austria is landlocked, it has access to Lake Constance, which many people refer to as just the sea. It is the third largest lake in Europe, and its picturesque location in the mountains attracts many visitors to it. While there, it is worth going to Bregenz, a small city combining medieval buildings with modernist buildings, where the Bregenz Festival is held every year. This is when prominent directors stage productions of famous operas on an impressive stage located on the waters of the lake.
