Graz - the city with the southern flair

A nice day trip tip is the state capital Graz . It has a large medieval old town with a southern flair. But the city also offers a lot of modern architecture that is known far beyond Austria's borders.

Examples include the greenhouse in the Botanical Garden by Volker Giencke, or the blue art house in the middle of the old town by the architects Peter Cook and Fournier. A cavity was even blown up in the Schlossberg , which dominates the middle of the city, and a spectacular lift takes you and your family up the mountain.

Salzkammergut - ideal for leisure

Another excursion destination is the Salzkammergut . It is one of the most beautiful landscapes in Austria and even the emperor has vacationed here. The mountainous landscape with numerous lakes and high plateaus offers breathtaking views . A hike around Lake Altaussee, for example, is a very beautiful experience and can easily be managed with children . The landscape around the lake is lovely, the path is flat with a view of the surrounding mountains.

The architecture of the mostly old houses and villas in the Salzkammergut is picturesque. Larch wood, green colors and lovely elements are dominant. For those who like to visit a thermal spa , the small Narzissen-Therme offers optimal refreshment . It was only built a few years ago and envelops you in modern architecture and thermal water. The small size of the complex makes it an ideal place for family time .

Southern Styria - the Styrian Tuscany

A third excursion tip in the region for family and friends is Southern Styria . Wine is grown here, there are numerous wine taverns that offer their own products and are located on beautiful hills. The light already has a southern tinge and this area is a beautiful destination, especially for wine tasting and a cozy get-together . A car is recommended here , as the area is very hilly, but you can also rent electric bikes and ride around. There aren't so many specific places to recommend here, but rather individual points with wine taverns. You can then go from wine tavern to wine tavern and unwind. What more could you want? You can find accommodation in numerous farms in the area, for example.
