Grunau im Almtal: Kasberg

About location

Grünau im Almtal sets rural valley calm alongside developed mountain-sports facilities, a contrast shaped by its position between the Alm valley and the Northern Limestone Alps. Kasberg, the local mountain above the community, is developed as a ski area and a starting point for walks in the upland terrain. Open slopes, lift stations and conifer woodland give the area a distinctly alpine character rather than the profile of an urban resort. The Alm flows through the municipality, where scattered settlements stand among farms and forest. Grünau is also home to Cumberland Wildpark, a wildlife park with animals from the Alpine and Central European region. It is a place to combine time in the mountains with the slower rhythm of an Upper Austrian valley.

Upper Austria
Region Upper Austria

Formed around the Danube and Enns corridors, Upper Austria developed into one of Austria’s nine federal states. Linz, its capital on the Danube, combines a major industrial tradition with cultural institutions including the Ars Electronica Center. North of the river, the Mühlviertel rolls towards the Czech border; southward, the terrain rises into the Alpine foothills and the lake country of the Salzkammergut. Hallstatt, beside Hallstätter See, is among the region’s best-known historic settlements and lends its name to the Hallstatt period of early Iron Age Europe.

Country Austria

Austria stretches from the Bohemian Massif along its northern edge to the Carnic Alps on the Italian border, encompassing high Alpine ranges and the Danube lowlands. The Danube links cities including Linz and Vienna, while the Grossglockner, at 3,798 metres, is the country’s highest mountain. Vienna developed for centuries as the seat of the Habsburg court, leaving imperial architecture around the Hofburg and Schönbrunn Palace. Salzburg is closely associated with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, who was born there in 1756. Alpine Tyrol, wine-growing areas east of Vienna and the lakes of Salzkammergut add markedly different regional identities.
