Advent and Christmas time in Tyrol

Tyrol is worth a visit all year round, as you probably know. But in the run-up to Christmas, when the fairytale wooden chalets at the Advent markets open their doors, the scent of mulled wine and Kiachl is in the air and the contemplative sounds of brass ensembles echo through the alleyways, it is particularly beautiful here. A festive atmosphere, a lovingly designed children's and music programme and a particularly large selection of arts and crafts and regional culinary specialities guarantee an atmospheric pre-Christmas season at the Advent and Christmas markets.
