Cycling tours in Austria

The Austrian climate has proven to be ideal for us cyclists. Yes, that’s right. It does rain here, but in general Austria has a very pleasant climate. The spring is usually very sunny with comfortably warm temperatures. The summer can be, especially in the east, very hot with occasional storms. Autumn can often be quite warm until October.

A little bit of this, a little bit of that and, of course, a little bit of this....This is a very good way to describe Austrian cuisine. Viennese cuisine in particular is composed of influences from various countries. Italy, Bohemia, Bavaria and of course Hungary have shaped Austrian cuisine and made it what it is today. A fiery beef goulash with bread dumplings, a delicious ‘Paprikahendl with spaetzle’, real ‘Tiroler Kasspatzn’, ‘Schlutzkrapfen’, boiled beef with horseradish dumplings and spinach, apple strudel, pancakes, Sacher Torte or 'Kaiserschmarrn'…the list of Austrian specialities goes on.

Legend has it that the Wiener Schnitzel did not come to Austria until the 19th Century. Field Marshal Radetzky is said to have enjoyed great flavours at the Costoletta Milanese during the Italian Revolution. Whether the most famous Austrian dish really comes from Italy and was just refined in Austria is truth or fairy tales? Who knows! We only know that a really well made Wiener Schnitzel is worth it. With potato salad, parsley potatoes, French fries, with cranberries or without – give it a try!
