Western Austria Tours & Trips
Ever thought about the quieter corners of Austria and nearby Bavaria? Vienna’s old palaces and cafés set the tone, while the lakes and peaks of the Salzkammergut feel more rural. The Eagle’s Nest and Berchtesgaden Salt Mine reflect different parts of the region’s past. Scenic rail routes lead toward Salzburg, with mountains never far from view.

We fully enjoyed our self-guided tour with WiseYatra. The tour was well organised and supported by the tour group on WhatsApp. It saved us time organising and we had the family holiday we wanted. Thank you WiseYatra team. 🫶
Complete Eastern Europe (Prague, Salzburg, Hallstatt, Vienna and Budapest)Highly recommend this trip. The days can be long but the views are worth it. Most of the route is paved so you can probably get away with hiking shoes or trail running shoes. There is luggage transfer available but I didn't need it. The route from Unken to Waidring could be updated but I was able to find an alternate route with the map. Before you start you're given the full itinerary with a navigation system on the app as well as paper copies of everything.
