Trend Sports in Summer

Hanggliding / Paragliding
If you’ve always dreamt of floating over mountain scenery, seemingly suspended in weightlessness, then Austria’s flying schools can make your dream come true. Glide free as a bird, the utter silence of the air broken only by the rushing of the wind.
Canyoning
There are people who wonder why anyone should want to clamber up (or down) a waterfall when there’s a perfectly good path along the river bank. If you’ve ever tried your hand at canyoning, you’ll know the answer. The appeal of canyoning has something to do with coming face to face with the elements (rock and water) – with such immediacy that you start to feel part of it all. This is a thrilling, challenging sport for everyone with a hankering for going to her/his limits.
Skating / Rollerblading
Mankind has always managed perfectly well on two feet. But rollerblades or a skateboard are a lot more fun. And if you’re less interested in getting from A to B than in having fun while you’re going there, these are the sports for you. The Austrian National Tourist Office can tell you where to go for the best boarding and rollerblading.
Polo
Polo has long since ceased to be the prerogative of the rich and famous. More and more people in Austria are discovering the pleasures of this fast-paced equestrian sport.
Balloon Rides
Which child hasn’t come under the spell of Jules Verne’s “Around the World in Eighty Days” and dreamt of riding the skies in a balloon? In southern Styria and elsewhere in Austria you can take off for an exciting balloon ride – not around the world, maybe, but far enough and high enough to be enthralled by the experience.
Bungee-Jumping
If you’re finally ready to pluck up your courage and try bungee-jumping, Austria’s the place to take the jump.
