Austria
Austria, with its storybook landscapes, rich cultural heritage and alpine valleys, offers countless quiet corners to unwind. Start with Lake Gosau, a breathtaking alpine lake tucked in the Dachstein region. The glassy waters reflect the towering peaks, and the quiet walking trails around the lake make it perfect for an early morning stroll or an afternoon of quiet reflection. For a truly spiritual experience, visit the Silent Night Chapel in Oberndorf. For a slow-paced retreat, Alpbach is a charming mountain village with traditional wooden chalets, blooming balconies, and rolling meadows. In winter, the Hochfügen Valley in Zillertal turns into a hushed wonderland, where snow-covered trails stretch endlessly, inviting you to slow down and embrace nature. And if you are looking for a natural reset, the Krimml Waterfalls—Europe’s highest—are known for their therapeutic mist, which has been proven to benefit respiratory health. Stand by the cascading water, take a deep breath, and feel the stress melt away.
