The Styrian region of Austria consists partly of delightfully lush wooded areas, earning the area the moniker the 'green heart' of Austria. The remaining area is mainly used for wine and fruit growing, for which it is particularly well known. The South Styrian wine route passes the villages of Berghausen, Ratsch, Sulztal, Glanz, Langegg, Schloßberg and Eichberg -Trautenburg. It is the oldest and most famous of all Styrian wine routes and is most definitely worth investigating on your self-catering holidays in Austria. On the way, you should not forget to stop for something to eat at some of the many farms and restaurants along the way, or indeed a wine tasting!
Wine, pumpkins and apples are the three main resources for which Styria is known. The mild climate favours growth and maturity and, together with water rich in minerals and volcanic soils, offers ideal conditions for a rich supply in the kitchen and cellar. Wine varieties such as Welschriesling, Weißburgunder, Morillon, Traminer and Schilcher are in demand internationally and world-renowned for their taste and quality. Whether you want to describe Styria as the delicatessen of Austria, an orchard in Austria or even as the belly of Austria - all describe the way regional produce thrives here to create wonderful food. Pumpkins casseroles, runner bean salads and pork pot roasts respresent some of the best of Austrian cuisine found in Styria.
Not just a region for fantastic sweeping landscapes, fresh air, tranquil meadows and vineyards, Styria is also home to Graz - Austria's 'second city'. Although our apartments in Vienna are an excellent choice for a cosmopolitan getaway in Austria, Graz has so much to offer and is also a worthy choice for a city break in Styria. With a range of superb eateries, hidden galleries and impressive historical buildings from the Baroque period, the citizens of Graz have a wealth of special activities to enjoy. Framed by the hilltop Schlossberg castle contrasting with the abstract modernity of the blue 'Kunsthaus' (you won't miss it) the city's skyline speaks of the cultural diveristy to be found within. Pay a visit and you won't be disappointed.
Of course Styria is an ideal location for an outdoor adventure holiday with family or friends with excellent opportunities for a variety of typical Austrian activities. Verdant landscapes invite you to go on long walks and climbs, whilst ziplining, cycling, skiing and even white water rafting are all possibilities. The highlight of the summer event is the daffodil festival in the country and the spring festival, which really brings together local culture and celebration of the Great Outdoors. The Daffodil Festival is a flower festival and takes place every year in spring in Bad Aussee. On Sunday morning, cars carved in the autocorso, with various figures modeled by flowers, drive through the city. In the afternoons there is a boat corse at the Grundlsee or Altausseer See.
Syria is filled with exciting things to do for families whether you would like to spend you time outdoors, or visit specific attarctions for families whilst self-catering in Austria. The Styrassic Park, for example, offers over 80 life-sized dinosaurs. From the Plateosaurus to the Tyrannosaurus Rex, there are numerous giants of the primordial age to admire. The living Spinosaurus is one of the main actors of a forgotten world. People of all ages are enthusiastic about the Saurier-Rodeo, the Dino-Riesenrutsche, Dinokarussell, children's playground with the Flying Fox, Kids Volcano, Pirate Tower. You could also visit the village of Piber, which is idyllically embedded in the hilly landscape of Western Styria. Here it is possible to see the famous Lipizzaner horses!
The 'Thermenregion' of Styria is ideal for a wellness holiday. The Bad Radkersburg thermal spa is just as famous as the Loipersdorf and Bad Waltersdorf thermal baths, just to name a few. The total of thermal baths in Styria form the largest spa region in Austria, making this the perfect place to seek rest and relaxation amidst incredible surroundings.The warm spring water found locally usually penetrates the surface from a depth of several thousand metres, meaning thatthroughout the ages guests have been able to benefit from the healing power of the warm spring water.
