| Austria is among the safest countries in the world. However, you should always consult your foreign office's travel advice section to get the latest travel advice information. Prior to any trip every traveller should consult a GP and/or visit a travel clinique. Austria is a mountainous country and mountains can be dangerous. The weather can change in minutes and you may find yourself suddenly surrounded by fog with a visibility of only 2 - 3 metres. Always get appropriate advice before you set out. Appropriate outdoor clothing is also very essential, if you go trekking in Austria. | |||||||||||||
