Even though recreational alpine sports only started to develop in the 19th century, the connection to the mountains has become deeply rooted in the people of Austria. On the one hand, this enthusiasm derives from a longing for peace and relaxation - when you are in the mountains, you leave your everyday life behind. On the other hand, it is the fascination, the feeling of freedom when standing on a summit. All of this is made possible by the unspoiled nature of Austria's mountains, water and forests.
63% of Austria's landscape consists of high alpine mountains. People have always lived their lives here in close connection with the mountains. For centuries, the cultivation of alpine pastures and farming on steep slopes in Austria ensured that the population kept moving and spent time in alpine nature - albeit with particularly hard work and without romantic intentions. The love of the alpine lifestyle has remained.

Holidays in Austria - for Generations to come
In Austria, nature sets the tone: protected landscapes, clean bathing lakes and intact natural regions. As a pioneer of organic farming, Austria also leads the European ranking of organic farmland, and the protection of biodiversity plays an important role. In many places, people live in awareness of their ecological treasures, and there is a correspondingly high level of commitment: Forests and alpine pastures are carefully tended, bodies of water are kept clean, natural areas are protected, and biodiversity is promoted. The preservation of these habitats for people, animals, plants and the climate is trend-setting in Austria.
Austria shows that building a bridge between your own well-being and responsibility towards others - and nature - can be so effortless: When you are a guest in Austria, you are embarking on a sustainable holiday.
