Home of legendary alpine skiing, the German language, and the wiener schnitzel, the land-locked Austria is easy to reach and fun to visit by car rental. Named literally the "Eastern Empire," Austria is very closely related to bordering Germany, as well as the other bordering countries of Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Czech Republic, Slovenia, and Italy. This area of Central Europe is so interrelated in fact, that you might hardly notice a difference as you cross some borders by car rental in Austria.
Though it is probably most well known, along with it's neighbor Switzerland, for its winter sports, Austria is far more than mountains and snow. It is quite a wonderful place for summer holidays as well, with abundant hiking opportunities in the Alps and some quite famous bicycle tours. Beyond the Alps (which do cover all but one quarter of the country) lie, meadows, wooded foothills, vineyards, plains, and farmland. These are the eastern provinces of Lower Austria and the Burgenland, where an Austrian car hire can take you on wine tasting tours, summer retreats, and more.
Another great Austrian attraction is its music, and every year travelers come from all over to experience the world renowned opera, classical music and jazz of Salzburg and Vienna. Summer music festivals abound and cover all tastes. The folk music of Austria is colored by the accordion and zither, choirs and brass bands.
