A winter
vacation in Austria means ice skating, curling, winter hikes, hockey on
ice, surf on ice, scuba diving and fishing under the ice. But there is also
more of course. You can visit one of the numerous Christmas fairs where
the traditional delights of the region such as chestnuts, vin brulé, children’s
punch, fish from the grill, typical cakes, “farm hamburgers” and much more
are all are on offer. Here you can enjoy the thrills and atmosphere of the
winter season and with friends or with family. |
