Motorcycling in Austria

Roads interest

It's an Alpine country, so, don't worry about roads : passes, curves, hairpins...all a rider wishes.

Road surface quality

Just like in all germanic countries, road quality is perfect.

Landscapes

The Alps...whatever is the country, it's like a dream. Just riding in Grosslockner - Hochalpenstrasse natural park is worth the travel.

General atmosphere / safety

The same as in Swiss, no problems about it.

Car drivers behaviour

I had a bad experience with a kind of 'suicide' overtaking of another driver. They are maybe a bit more speed than in countries around, but they drive a very correct way.

Speed controls

Excepted around big cities, I did not notice some . Ride carefully and there won't be any problem.

Formalities

If your are from European union, passport or identity card are enough.
