When you travel to Austria, it's important to have an idea about the weather and Austria's seasons. Austria has four distinct seasons: spring, summer, autumn and winter. Summers are generally warm and pleasant with cool nights. Rain does occur during the summer season but the showers are normally short. Austria's winters are sunny, with reliable and frequent snowfalls. Winters are ... cold and accompanied by warm and dry winds in some parts.

Food in Austria is NOT a problem unless you are watching your waistline. You can eat anytime, anywhere: it is amazing. Small cafes are found along seemingly deserted mountain paths and warming huts serving an assortment of hot mulled wine, cider, crepes, sausages, soups, and sandwiches are strategically positioned to tempt skiers in from their mountain descent. Even the smallest town is liberally sprinkled with restaurants. In summer, sidewalk terraces magically blossom with tables set with jaunty umbrellas. When you visit Austria be prepared to eat, and eat well.

Austria, in particular Vienna and Salzburg get packed in the summer. Be sure to make a reservation at your hostel or hotel as soon as possible. Some of the hostels that are located a little outside the center of Vienna may have more rooms available.
