My wife and I are taking a 2 week trip in mid-June and we are looking for some Austria travel advice. We are starting out in Munich and then plan on traveling to Venice. We would like to stop in Austria for a few nights (no more than 3) but we are not exactly sure where we want to go. Any ideas? One thought was Innsbruck as this seems to be the most direct route. Thanks!!

The city of Innsbruck and its surroundings offer a lot of worthwhile things to do. Innsbruck owns a compact and cute city centre with mighty mountains in the background. Within 30 minutes you can reach an altitude of 2.200m above sea level from where you can enjoy a breathtaking view.
You could also go via Salzburg, the birthplace of W.A. Mozart and %26quot;Sound of music%26quot;.

I would suggest buying the Bayern Karte ticket for about €28 (can be shared by 2-5 persons), from Munich to travel to Salzburg. Then in Salzburg buy the Einfach-Raus-Ticket by ÖBB for €28 (Can be shared by 2-5 persons too)and travel to Innsburg as day trip.
But with less than 3 days, I would opt for Salzburg.

Are you going by car or train. If car, head on the Salzburg - Italy autobahn south (toward Undine) and stay in Millstatt at the Millstatter See. Nice town, lake and various places for short hikes, walks or drives.
If by car, take the train ( via Rosenheim, nor Garmisch)to Jenbach. From there take the short train ride either to one of the locations in the Zillertal Aschau, Mayrhofen), or to Pertisau at the Achensee.

The mentioned %26quot;Einfach-Raus-Ticket%26quot; and %26quot;Bavaria-Ticket%26quot; (both passes for unlimited rides) are subject to certain conditions which may interfere with your intentions. Please browse the forum - in case you are interested in these tickets - in order to find more detailed information.

We are plan on taking trains for our trip. After doing a little more research I think there will be a bit more for us to do in Salzburg. A day trip into the mountains seems like a good idea and we will look into that. Thanks for the comments.

Good decision. Take the train to Hallstatt, or the bus to Berchtesgaden. The latter gives you more time to explore places - - - the Kehlsteinhaus (Eagles Nest), the Jenner lontain by gondola lift for another beautiful view of the Watzmann mountain, and the Koenigsee lake.
