Holidays in Austria. Some of us spend half<br />

our lives working at a desk. Our minds revolve<br />

around our job and day-to-day routine. But on<br />

holiday we can really come to life. So, treat your body<br />

to fresh air, unspoilt Nature, an invigorating climate,<br />

pure water. As your body strives for balance and<br />

adapts to exercise, your heart and mind find their<br />

rhythm. With every stride in the mountains, the<br />

cares of everyday life become less significant until<br />

they vanish altogether. What does Austria actually<br />

look like from the air? Paragliders and hanggliders<br />

have the answer. And brave souls who take the<br />

contents.<br />

challenge of white-water rafting in the mountains<br />

will feel the thrill of teamwork and adventure long<br />

after the event. Water attracts us: Austria has 300<br />

bathing lakes of enviable purity and some of the<br />

world’s finest golf courses. Riding stables, childfriendly<br />

farms, hiking villages, climbing camps,<br />

tennis hotels, schools for surfing, kiting and<br />

wakeboarding – Austria will get you moving.<br />

A very warm welcome to you all. I wish you<br />

an eventful activity holiday in Austria.<br />

Yours, Petra Stolba<br />
