The 10 Best Mountains in Austrian Alps, Austrian Alps

November 22, 2021 Jeremy Dunfee

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.

Grossglockner

Austria's highest mountain and centrepiece of the High Tauern National Park You can approach the Grossglockner in many different ways: it is the highest mountain of the Alpine Republic, one of the most striking elevations in the Eastern Alps and the summit of passion for many a mountaineer. The mountain is also home to people, numerous animals and rare plants. The Glockner is cloaked in secrecy, is the stuff of legend and has great attractive power. It is an obstacle on the path from north to south, yet a place where it has been overcome through the millennia. Join us and get to know his majesty, the Grossglockner, in his numerous aspects!

Amazing location and amazing Innsbruck. Surrounded by the Alps. If you love being around the mountains and have fresh air and skiing sport and have the best ever experience so Innsbruck is the best option to look into and schedule it on your next trip plan!

Catch the cog railroad at the edge of the old town and climb halfway up Hafelkar. From there, a large cable car goes most of the rest of the way up. Finally there is a smaller cable car to the top. The entire way, there are views of an Alpine ridge and the city of Insbruck. We took advantage of the quaint restaurant at the top to have a bowl of hot soup and hot chocolate. Great adventure!

Is a 20 minute drive from Salzburg but it is worth it on a nice day. We got a great view overlooking Salzburg and the snow capped mountains around.

Great way to spend a few hours of a trip to Salzburg. Particularly at this time of year when there's plenty of snow at the top (but none in town). On a clear day, such as we had, the views were great and it's really nice in the sunny weather. Cable car up is pricey (EUR25 return), but it is free with a Salzburg Card (one of its many many benefits). Easy to reach from the town centre by bus. One of the bus routes (route 25) also goes via Hellbrunn and Salzburg Zoo, so it is very easy to combine all 3 into an excellent day trip (as we did).

I ended up hiking in Austria on my 35th birthday. It was challenging, but worth the experience. Beautiful place.
