Austrian Alps
Nature is dedicated to lovers. Magnificent photos of the Austrian Alps Andrei Pavlov.
Austria occupies one of the leading places in Europe in terms of the quantity and quality of ski resorts.
The population of the Austrian Alps is very small, with a total length of 1,200 km and a width of up to 260 km.
Alps are territorially part of 8 states, divided into western and eastern.
The Western Alps are located in Switzerland, Italy and France. Austria lies in the Eastern Alps, which are lower and wider than the Western. There are fewer glaciers in the Eastern Alps, more forests and meadows than in the Western. The famous mountain Mont Blanc is the highest peak of the Western Alps, located on the border of Italy and France.
