The global impression of Austria is of perpetual mountain ridges, onion-domed churches, and medal-laden skiers. Those venturing to Austria for a corporate incentive event are in for a whopping surprise. Austria boasts glaciated peaks, crystal clear rivers and some of the most perfect villages on the planet.
Yet Austria is also home to award-winning vineyards, HQs from the IAEA to Red Bull, cutting-edge urban landscapes, and indescribably impressive civic infrastructure. For culture, trace Mozart’s steps in Salzburg, dine on modern Austrian cuisine or marvel at the staggering contemporary architecture.
Austria is only white part of the year, and after the ground warms, the activities switch from snow to a less frigid version of H²O - sailing on emerald lakes, whitewater rafting on pristine raging torrents, or simply floating on thermal spa waters, beneath cloud-piercing, glaciated horizons.
Away from the water, the dining is wonderful and regional. History is everywhere in the Old Towns of Innsbruck and Salzburg, whilst cities such as Graz offer marvellous architectural wonders. The transport network and public facilities are jaw-droppingly impressive, and for those heading to ski in Austria, yes, it’s possible every day of the year in Tirol.

Incentive travel options in Austrian cities offer a different experience than many other parts of Europe. On the edge of the Alps, Salzburg offers a stunning contrast between the rolling plains in the north and the towering peaks to the south. Incentive travel to Salzburg can include sailing on the sublime lakes of the Salzkammergut, just outside Salzburg.
Innsbruck is hemmed in by granite, with peaks towering up on either side of the city. The Old Town is magical, and the entertainment, culture and shopping are fantastic. Innsbruck incentive travel offers thrilling activities on the peaks and waters of the region.
Those looking for an escape could try Lech for an incentive trip. It is stunningly charming and has exceptional hotels and fine dining. Another option would be an incentive trip to Bregenzerwald, a valley close to Lech offering fantastic regional cuisine, sublime scenery, and architecture.
Kitzbühel is world-famous for its skiing, yet incentive trips to Kitzbühel are stunning once the snow melts. Fine dining, superb hotels, beautiful venues and thrilling activities are all available in Kitzbühel. Zell am See incentive events are all about contrasts, the lush valleys and frigid glaciers. There are thermal spas, golf in the valley and spring skiing on the glacier.
From April to November, many parts of the Austrian Alps have more of a non-ski than ski feel. Unlike many French ski resorts, the Austrian resorts tend to be places people live in, as well as visit. You rarely find a resort that feels desolate or out of season. Activities shift from the snow to the water and rock, and dining moves from cosy rooms to terraces.
The cities are less seasonal, yet the best time to visit Salzburg, Innsbruck or Vienna would be in a similar timeframe – March to November. Christmas Markets are a charming regional feature, and the cities offer great options.
