Natuurlijke bezienswaardigheden in Oostenrijk

Natural Wonders

Austria's landscape features diverse geological formations, from the 380-meter-high Krimml Waterfalls to the Eisriesenwelt, the world's largest ice cave system. The alpine region includes the Achensee, known as the Tyrolean Sea for its windsurfing conditions, and the Wolfsklamm gorge in Tyrol. Urban green spaces like Innsbruck's Hofgarten contrast with rugged sites like the Gasteiner Wasserfall, which drops through the center of a historic spa town.
