The Alps cover 62% of the country, falling away into the plateau of Upper and Lower Austria and the plains of Burgenland. Austria is very mountainous, the highest point being <strong>Grossglockner <\/strong>at 3,798 m and its lowest point Neusiedler See at 115m.

The major rivers north of the watershed of the Austrian Alps (the <strong>Inn <\/strong>in Tyrol, the <strong>Salzach <\/strong>in Salzburg, and the <strong>Enns <\/strong>in Styria and Upper Austria) are direct tributaries of the Danube and flow north into the Danube valley, whereas the rivers south of the watershed in central and eastern Austria (the <strong>Gail <\/strong>and <strong>Drau <\/strong>rivers in Carinthia and the <strong>M&uuml;rz<\/strong> and <strong>Mur <\/strong>rivers in Styria) flow south into the drainage system of the Drau, which eventually empties into the Danube in Serbia. <\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">The most important pass in the Austrian Alps is the <strong>Brenner Pass<\/strong>, located on the Austrian-Italian border in Tyrol. <\/p>\n<h4>Buy your own Austria maps here: <\/h4>\n<ul>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\" language=\"javascript\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kqzyfj.com\/7166dyujlnqxumn-8EDAHAA9?sid=Travelsignposts&#038;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.maps.com%2FSearch.aspx%3Fq%3Daustria&#038;target=_blank&#038;mouseover=Y\"><\/script>\n      <\/ul>\n<h3 align=\"left\">Our other Austria pages:<\/h3>\n<p align=\"left\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.travelsignposts.com\/Austria\/destinations\/linz-danube-river-cruise\">Linz, Austria<\/a>: Linz is rich in historic buildings and the city has become an important cultural centre. <\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.travelsignposts.com\/Austria\/destinations\/melk-danube-river-cruise\">Melk, Austria<\/a>: Situated on an isolated rock with its commanding the Danube, Melk&#8217;s Benedictine monastery is the largest in Austria and at its time and day was the most important work of sacral Baroque in Europe.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><a href=\"http:\/\/travelsignposts.com\/destination\/Austria\"><strong>TRAVEL TO AUSTRIA WITH US: PHOTO HIGHLIGHTS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Map of Austria Use the interactive map of Austria below to find places, plan your trip and gather information about destinations in Austria that interest you.
