10 Points of Interest & Landmarks in Austrian Alps That You Shouldn't Miss
The majestic Austrian Alps stretch across the country, an awe-striking area of Ice Age valleys, verdant heaths and alluvial cones within Europe's largest national park, 700-square-mile Hohe Tauern. Taking in the dramatic cities of Salzburg and Innsbruck and the beautiful province of Tirol, home to spectacular skiing and hiking, as well as Gross Glockner, Austria's highest peak, and some of the world's best winter and summer sports playgrounds, the Austrian Alps are an outdoor lover's paradise.

Sriegl is the #1 brand of beer in Salzburg, we visited Salzburg many time, while failing to visit the brewery, this time it was at the top of the list. Easy walk from the bus, we just did a tasting in the beer hall, beautiful spaces, decorated for Christmas this time of year! Helpful waitstaff, god beer, lots of fun! Highly recommended!

Winter closure - re-opening May 2021! Liechtenstein Gorge is certainly one of the longest, deepest, and most impressive gorges in the Alps. The mighty thunder of the waterfall, the moss-grown rocks in rich green, a legendary atmosphere, and sun rays that create a rainbow in the fine water mist. The unique natural spectacle in the Salzburger Land is known for an unforgettable trip of a special kind - an experience for the whole family. Over thousands of years, the thundering water falls and the rushing masses of water have cut more and more deeply into the mountain and have created a gorge. The rocks stand so narrow and high in places that only a small strip of the sky remains visible.

During our Salzburg vacation we came across this gorge as a highly recommended place to visit and it's definitely worth your time. The way through the gorge is newly renovated and really nicely made, you get plenty of awesome views. The only minus is the amount of people. We came there early, shortly after opening. But when we reached the end and had to return the same way back, we had to pass a lot of people; of course many of them didn't wear masks though they are mandatory. I also didn't enjoy wearing them but try to stick to the rules. But either way, if you can, it's a great place to see.

Salzburg has so many great features. This includes a mountain the is directly in the middle of the city on the North and East side of the Salzach River. We climbed the mountain for the incredible views it had of the city and fortress. There are so many things to do in Salzburg, but do not miss the views from this mountain top.

Whether you are an opera fan or not this is a must-do! We have gone 4 times now and each time has been so impressive. The stage is just incredible and the setting couldn't be better. The opera starts when the sun is still out and you can enjoy the background of the Lake of Constance and the Alps. As the opera progresses the sun sets and with each stage of the sun setting brings upon a completely different feel to the setting and atmosphere. The opera gets repeated so I would recommend going every other year.
