The Großer Ahornboden is an alpine valley in Austria's western Tyrol province, near the Bavarian region of southern Germany.  It is part of an Austrian conservation preserve called Hinterriss Nature Park, which is expected to help maintain the ecological health of the area for future generations.  With the Tyrolean Alps towering over, this valley makes for one of the most iconic scenes in all of Central Europe.  Contributor DJPilot captured  beautifully in this amazing drone video.  

This drone video by top AirVuz contributor Eye-Catchgraphy brings out the intense beauty of the Austrian Alps.  Technically called the Central Eastern Alps, the mountains actually also cover adjacent territory in Italy, Lichtenstein, Slovenia, and Switzerland.  The highest peak of the range (Mt. Grossglockner) sits at an elevation of about 3.8k meters above sea level (just under 12.5k ft.).  While the Austrian Alps are a bit shorter than some of their cousins to the southwest, they are as beautiful as any mountains in Europe.    

The Styria region of Austria lies in the southeastern part of the country, and is the second most populous of the country's nine federated states.  Styria is home to a single large city (Graz) and much lightly inhabited semi-mountainous country, albeit with peaks much lower than in the state of Tyrol to the west.  In this stunning drone video, top contributor and pilot ClearSkys takes us on a tour of the Mt. Ganzalm and Stuhleck areas of Styria,  which includes footage of a giant mountaintop wind farm.  

With an elevation of just under 2.1k meters above sea level (around 6.8k ft.) Austria's Mt. Schneeberg is the highest mountain in the state of Lower Austria and the easternmost mountain in the Alps to exceed 2k meters (around 6.55k ft.).   The Karst plateaux of the mountain have provided water to the city of Vienna since 1873 and is supposedly the best drinking water in the world. Contributor and drone pilot Dronographer takes us to the “snow mountain” to say a long-overdue goodbye to winter!

Austria's Verwall Mountains, part of the larger Alps system, are situated in the country's western Tyrol province.  They are home to some of the most picturesque views in all of Central Europe, with favorable comparisons to the very best sights that that Switzerland or Bavaria has to offer.  In this video, content creator and pilot M. C. Black flies his DJI Mavic Pro drone over the lakes and valleys of this stunningly beautiful area, giving us a breathtaking aerial view of the alpine district.  

Behold this spectacular drone video from contributor Dronographer of the most well known wine region of Austria.  The "Vienna Woods thermal region" stretches from the southern outskirts of Vienna along a hilly chain to the region south of Baden. The vineyards are located at the foothills of the Vienna Woods.  The region is home to about 1300 wine-growing enterprises. The area features ideal grape-growing conditions: cool and dry, with a plentiful nearby supply of high quality freshwater.  

For centuries up until World War I, Vienna was (with Paris and St. Petersburg) one of the three grandest cities of Europe.  Heavily damaged late in World War II but later restored, Vienna remains one of the continent's top cultural centers.  In this outstanding drone video by Dronographer, you'll see some highlights of the great city on the Danube, including Maria-Theresien-Platz, the Hofburg Palace, the Albertina Museum, Belvedere Castle, St.. Stephens Cathedral, St. Francis of Assisi Church, St. Charles Church, and more. 

In this video, content creator and pilot Dronesantana007 gives us an epic bird's eye view of the Austrian city Salzburg.  Salzburg is situated in the northern part of the country, on the border with Germany.  It is the fourth largest city in Austria.  One of Europe's great cultural cities, the center of Salzburg has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage site.  It is possibly most well known as the shooting location for the epic film The Sound of Music, winner of the Best Picture award at the 1965 Oscars.

Luiz.Moura created this short but beautiful aerial look at one of the most well known castles in Austria.  Hochosterwitz castle is built on a giant rock overlooking the countryside in the southern state of Carinthia.  The structure dates to as early as the 9th century.  The castle was heavily fortified in the 16th century to protect against the threat of invasion by the Ottoman Turks.  Considered one of the top tourist spots in southern Austria, and the castle is visible from many km/mi away.

Austria's Finstertal Lake (Finstertalspeicher) lies in the heart of the Tyrol province in the western part of the country, not far from Salzburg.  The magnificent alpine lake is known for its aqua blue color, on which the peaks of the surrounding Tyrolean Alps reflect.  Content creator and pilot DJPhotography flew his drone over this beautiful area in September, just as the season was starting to turn.  The aerial footage of this stunningly beautiful area in the heart of Central Europe will make your jaw drop. 

If you've watched the 1960's classic movie the Sound of Music, you may have an image of Austria as a country filled with hikers.  While this is an over-generalization, the fact remains that this Alpine country offers some of the best hiking areas in the world.  Contributor and pilot ClearSky created this spectacular drone video on a hike in the Rax Mountains, in in the eastern region of Styria.  These "little" Alps are generally accessible by hikers and do not require technical mountain climbing equipment.    

In this drone video by contributor and pilot DJphotography, you'll get a beautiful bird's eye views of one of Austria's most spectacular alpine lakes as well as of the highest mountain in Germany.  The Seebensee is located the Austria's mountainous Tyrol province, which covers much of the western part of the country.  It's not far from the town of Ehrwald.  The lake affords excellent views of Mt. Zugspitze over the border in Germany.  This is Germany's highest peak, standing almost 3k meters (about 9.7k ft.) above sea level.

4Kdrone created this beautiful drone video of Großglockner, the highest mountain in Austria.  Sometimes called Mt. Glockner, it's almost 3.8k meters (12.46k ft.) above sea level, the tallest of the Alps peaks east of the Brenner Pass.  It is situated in the southern part of the country, not far from the Italian border.  The Glockner is part of the High Tauern range, which in turn is part of the Central Eastern Alps.  It's believed that the first ascent of the mountain took place in 1799, inspired by the earlier ascent of Mt. Blanc.  

Contributor mavic pro created this beautiful drone video from the Wachau Valley in northwestern Austria.  The 32 km (roughly 20 mi.) valley, through which flows the Danube River, offers some of the most popular attractions in the state of Lower Austria.  The video features footage of the ruined Dürnstein Castle, where Richard the Lionhearted was held captive following the Third Crusade.  It also includes footage of the magnificent Göttweig Abbey, an 11th century Benedictine monastery.  

Austria's capital city Vienna may be one of the 2-3 best preserved of Europe's great cities.  The beating heart of this city (once the beating heart of the Holy Roman Empire) is Schonbrunn Palace, which was a summer residence of the Habsburg rulers, who for centuries ruled the world's most powerful empire out of Vienna.  Using a DJI Spark drone, contributor W. Obereder created this marvelous aerial look at palace, which had a cameo appearance in the 17th James Bond film, The Living Daylights (1987).

Contributor Phil Go created this stunning drone video of Ennstal, an area of eastern Austria.  The Ennstal Alps are situated in the province of Styria, in the eastern part of the country.  The centerpiece of the area is the spectacular  Gesäuse National Park.  The tallest mountain in the group is Großer Pyhrgas, which has an elevation of about 2.24k meters (7.36k ft.) above sea level.  These spectacular mountains are generally accessible by long hikes and do not require rock climbing for the most part.

Lake Wolfgang (Wolfgangsee) is one of the national treasures of Austria.  Located a bit to the east and south of Salzburg, it's the largest lake in the legendary Salzkammergut lake district.  Seen in January in this drone video by minglam, the lake covers a surface area of about 13 square km (around 5 square mi.) and is extremely deep - 114 meters at its deepest point, or just under 375 ft.  The lake is home to two of Austria's most popular resort towns: St. Wolfgang, where the lake narrows in the middle, and St. Gilchen at its northern end.

Halstatt is one of the most iconic-looking towns in Austria, a country known in part for its beautiful alpine villages.  The town lies on the shores of Halstatter See lake along the slopes of the Hoher Dachstein  mountain masif, in the heart of the Salzkammergut resort district southeast of Salzburg.  Known for its salt production going back to prehistoric times, Halstatt is now one of the top tourist destinations in the state of Upper Austria.  Check out the beautiful town from above in this excellent drone video by rpj321.

Austria's Haldensee lies in the north of the Tyrol province, near the border with Germany.  It is one of the most beautiful lakes in Austria, a country known in part for its stunningly clear lakes set amidst pristine alpine forests.  Contributor and pilot Eye-Catchography used a DJI Phantom 4 Pro drone to fly over this alpine marvel, including of the spectacular rock formations which surround the lake.  The resulting aerial video of this bit of the Austrian Alps is astoundingly beautiful.

Green Lake (Gruner See) lies near the center of Austria in its Styria province, in the southeastern part of the country near the Slovakian border.  As its name suggests, Gruner See is known for its emerald green (yet extremely clean) water emanating from the surrounding Hoschwab Mountains (part of the Alps range).  In this video, content creator and pilot ClearSkys flies over this stunningly beautiful body of water with a drone, giving us an aerial view of one of Austria's most iconic sights! 

Austria is a country defined by mountains, and not just in the western half of the country.  In this beautiful drone video by ClearSky, you'll see the stunning alpine beauty of eastern Austria.  The video features footage of (1) Wurzeralm, an area due east of Salzburg in the Upper Austria region; (2) Rax, a mountain range in the Northern Limestone Alps, which forms the border between the Lower Austria and Styria provinces; (3) Almsee, a lake in Upper Austria; and (4) Hochkar, a ski resort in Lower Austria.  

Contributor W. Obereder created this epic bird's eye view of the Wiener Riesenrad, a giant ferris wheel in the Austrian capital Vienna.  Located in the Prater amusement park, the wheel stands almost 65 meters (212 ft.) tall.  It was built in 1897 and for decades was the world's tallest ferris wheel.  One of the most recognized sights in the Austrian capital, the ferris wheel has made numerous movie appearances, most famously in the 1987 James Bond film The Living Daylights, the series' 17th installment.  

Zillergrund is a a 20 km (roughly 12.5 mi.) long valley that is part of the Zillertal Alps in Tyrol, the western state of Austria in Central EUrope. Shot in 4K with the DJI Mavic Pro, AirVūz Contributor and pilot Sennevd1 shows us how beautiful this historic valley can be. With rushing waterfalls and streams, lush forests, and hidden towns, it's a little alpine gem.  The Zillerton Alps are a sub-chain of the Alps range which lies primarily within the borders of Austria, with a small portion in northern Italy.

Austria's Tyrol (Tirol) is widely considered to be one of the most beautiful provinces in Europe.  It's one of the nine federal states that make up modern Austria, covering most of the western part of the country.  Once a princely state of the Holy Roman Emperor, much later it became a Crown land.  Covered almost entirely by the Eastern Alps, Tyrol is home to Austria's tallest mountains.  In this drone video by Robin Visser Photo, you'll get an aerial tour of this storied province in the height of summer.  

Characterized by mountain villages, baroque architecture, and its rugged, Alpine terrain, Austria is a country straight out of a fairytale.
