Explore Live Cams in Austria

Austria (Österreich) is a landlocked country in the heart of Central Europe, covering about 32,390 square miles (83,879 km²). The Alps fill most of its west and south with snowy peaks, glaciers and deep green valleys, while the east opens out into rolling hills, vineyards and the wide valley of the Danube around Vienna.

Its most famous natural landmark is the Grossglockner, the highest mountain in the country, rising above Hohe Tauern, the largest national park in the Alps. Nearby, the Krimml Waterfalls tumble about 1,247 feet (380 m) in three great steps, and near Werfen, Eisriesenwelt is the largest ice cave in the world, winding about 26 miles (42 km) into the mountain.

Alpine ibex, chamois and marmots live high on the rocky slopes, with golden eagles circling above. In the far east, shallow Lake Neusiedl, shared with Hungary, is a stopover for huge flocks of migrating birds. The lakeside village of Hallstatt, beneath steep mountains, is one of the most photographed places in Europe.

Did You Know? Salt has been mined in the mountain above Hallstatt for about 7,000 years, making it one of the oldest salt mines in the world.
