Pick a province and browse the store of holiday ideas and top offers!

Climate

Austria enjoys a moderate continental climate featuring four distinct seasons: spring, summer, autumn and winter. Summers are generally warm and pleasant with cool nights, Winters are sunny, with reliable and frequent snowfalls.
The weather is changeable throughout the year. However, in summer rainfalls are usually heavy and of short duration only. Winters are rather cold in the North-East and can be lightened up by frequent and heavy foehn winds (a warm and dry wind) in some valleys in the Alps. (aboutaustria.com)
