But that&#8217;s not to say you shouldn&#8217;t visit the usual suspects of Vienna and Salzburg &#8211; because you shouldn&#8217;t miss them either. But if you find yourself in Austria with two or three weeks to spare, there is so much to see in this landlocked mountainous terrain, that you&#8217;ll never want to leave.

Hallstatt<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;ll start with Hallstatt because lets face it: this is handsdown our top pick for the most photogenic location in all of Austria. This small and charming town located on Lake Hallstatt&#8217;s Western shore is a popular favourite for tourists making their way around Austria. And while it is quite difficult to visit by train (including a number of changes), you could easily make your way here between visiting Vienna and Salzburg, whether by train or driving yourself. There isn&#8217;t much to do here in Hallstatt, which is entirely the point. It is a place to unwind and relax, curl up with a good book in the winter time or make your way onto the lake in summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.worldofwanderlust.com\/how-to-visit-hallstatt\/\">How to <\/a><\/em><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.worldofwanderlust.com\/how-to-visit-hallstatt\/\"><strong><em>Visit Hallstatt<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1440\" height=\"960\" src=\"https:\/\/www.worldofwanderlust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/sarah-mutter-Ci-aV-AIwGQ-unsplash-1440x960.jpg\" alt=\"Salzburg Austria\" class=\"wp-image-53214\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.worldofwanderlust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/sarah-mutter-Ci-aV-AIwGQ-unsplash-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/www.worldofwanderlust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/sarah-mutter-Ci-aV-AIwGQ-unsplash-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.worldofwanderlust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/sarah-mutter-Ci-aV-AIwGQ-unsplash-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.worldofwanderlust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/sarah-mutter-Ci-aV-AIwGQ-unsplash-scaled.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.worldofwanderlust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/sarah-mutter-Ci-aV-AIwGQ-unsplash-800x533.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><figcaption>Photo by <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/@sarahmutter?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\">Sarah Mutter<\/a> on <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/s\/photos\/salzburg?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\">Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2.
