Hotels in Upper Austria, Austria

Upper Austria stretches from the Danube River to the Alps, with a continental climate bringing snowy winters for skiing at Feuerkogel or Dachstein, and warm summers for swimming in Lake Traunsee or Lake Wolfgangsee. The region is famous for the Salzkammergut lake district, where you can hike between alpine pastures, and for the city of Linz, home to the Brucknerhaus classical concert hall and the interactive Ars Electronica Center. In winter, frozen lakes become natural ice skating rinks, while summer offers cycling along the Danube and exploring the medieval old town of Steyr.
