Optional leisure and cultural programme

Weekends are free for discovering Austrian culture and nature. Every weekend we organise excursions to popular destinations at cost price. Accompanied by an experienced teacher you can visit Salzburg, the city of Mozart, Graz, the capital of Styria, Klosterneuburg, or admire the famous Danube valley Wachau. In summer we go swimming at Lake Neusiedl and taste Austrian wine at a traditional venue called "Heuriger".
