Holidays with your Four-Legged Friend
In Austria, holidays with dogs become an unforgettable experience. Many hotels warmly welcome their four-legged guests and ensure they have everything they need. As people and their pets explore the stunning, often untouched nature together, they breathe in the fresh mountain air and listen to the soothing sounds of the forests. The expansive hiking trails lead through picturesque landscapes, past sparkling lakes and lush alpine meadows, where dogs can run and play to their heart’s content. After an active day, cosy dog beds, tasty treats, and food bowls await in the hotel – everything to make the holiday truly memorable.
