Austria Uncovered

Discovering Lebensgefühl in Austria

‘Lebensgefühl’ is the conscious feeling of being the centre of life, feeling life, and taking part in life.


It’s about enjoying your moment in the mountains, encountering the locals, and living life to the very full. This unique sense of Lebensgefühl is what sets a visit to Austria apart from anywhere else in the world. The Austrian people have this sense of Lebensgefühl in abundance, and now they want to share it with you so you can find your own.

Paznaun-Ischgl – including the villages of Ischgl, Galtür, Kappl, and See – is a haven for outdoor lovers in summer, with easy access to the impressive Tirolean mountains. The hiking, biking, and bouldering are world class.
St. Anton am Arlberg is where Alpine peaks meet blue skies, where turquoise mountain lakes meet green Alpine meadows, and traditional mountain culture meets cutting-edge facilities.
Summer in St. Johann in Tirol is the time when you can experience the Tirolean mountains with all your senses and relax in the fresh Alpine air.


Climbing the summits, hiking the trails, mountain, road and gravel biking, trail running – I know this is something we all hear a lot, but Kitzbühel genuinely has it all

Innsbruck is known as the Heart of the Alps: a vibrant, culturally rich city circled by mountains. We’d describe a summer holiday with Innsbruck as a base as ‘Alpine-urban’, a perfect blend of nature and culture, relaxation and challenge, city and countryside.
To visit Zillertal is to step out of everyday life and to immerse yourself in the wonders of nature. With its four regions and the High Mountain Nature Park Zillertal Alps, the Zillertal promises countless experiences for the senses.


Discover summer in Schladming-Dachstein, where mountains and valleys provide an impressive backdrop to outdoor adventures, hikes, and relaxing moments in nature.
