Day trips

Hi there!

Can anyone recommend me some great cities in Austria where I can visit in just one day? I%26#39;ll be in Vienna and Salzburg next year, but really would love to see a few places off-the-beaten-track...

Thanks in Advance!

Many day trips are possible from Vienna.

It depends on your interests what is best.

Many like the combi trip to Melk Abbey in Melk ( a beutifuly restored Abbey with magnificent view of the Danube), then a boat trip down the Danube to Krems, a visit to the museum then a train back to Vienna- a full day but very nice.

This is possible with a single ticket about 40 euros.

From Vienna, maybe try Graz (city approx.180 km south of Vienna, capital of Styria)

From Salzburg: try Hallstatt (a village nestled between lake and mountain, with a rich history dating back almost 3000 years, salt mines); along with Bad Ischl (the fin de siecle-atmosphere of the old Austrian monarchy)
