Culture
For a taste of typical Austrian culture, you’ll struggle to find a better place than Seefeld. With summer concerts in abundance thanks to the local churches, you can surround yourself with the subtle sounds of brass band music as you sip schnapps and tuck in to platters of local meat and cheese at one of Seefeld’s many cafés and restaurants.
Take a wander to the Peace Bell, the largest bell in Tyrol which rings every day at 5pm and is heard for miles, or discover historical monuments and learn about local history on the cultural walk in Reith. The 90-year old Karwendel railway is a highlight and is still considered today as a masterpiece of engineering. The city of Innsbruck and fairytale castle of Neuschwanstein are just minutes away for that all important dose of history, or discover the differences between Austria, Switzerland and Liechtenstein on the 3 Country Alpine Tour. Why not try…- A taste of Tyrolean culture with an evening of thigh-slapping, yodelling and music. A stomach for alcohol will be required for the inevitable skulling that will ensue, if you let it!
- Treading the cobbled streets of Innsbruck, a visit to the ‘Sacher Café’ at the Imperial Palace is not to be missed
- Hopping over the border into Germany to discover the inspiration for Walt Disney’s Sleeping Beauty and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang castles – ‘Mad’ King Ludwig’s Neuschwanstein Castle
