Austria Rail Tours – Everything Arranged
Austria combines elegant cities with spectacular Alpine scenery. Cities such as Vienna, Salzburg and Graz offer a wealth of culture and attractions. Austria's Alpine railway lines are major mainline routes rather than narrow-gauge railways like many in Switzerland. They pass through beautiful valleys and mountain passes, offering stunning scenery without climbing to extreme altitudes.
Highlight: Semmering Railway
The Semmering Railway is one of Austria's most famous and scenic railway lines and is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This historic railway between Gloggnitz and Mürzzuschlag is an engineering masterpiece, featuring impressive viaducts, tunnels and spectacular views across mountains and valleys.
