Common questions on rental process

Driving Advices for Austria – Traffic Regulations and Road Usage Peculiarities

In winter, many mountain roads are closed, so the route must be clarified in advance. Drivers, who plan to travel on mountain roads in winter, will certainly need to equip their vehicles with snow chains (you will see special road signs that permit the use of snow chains).

Many sections of mountain roads are quite narrow and there is space for only one car. If there is a car moving in the opposite direction, and the road has enough space only for one car, motorists need to drive back until there is a suitable place where cars can pass each other. There are no specific rules that clarify what car should give way. The car that is able to move backwards conveniently must do the maneuver.

While driving, drivers are not allowed to talk on a cell phone. It is only possible to use the gadget if your phone is equipped with the «hands free» device.

Enjoying SUV and sightseeing of Graz

Graz: topics

Graz has prepared a rich program full of excursions for its guests. Travelers should definitely not forget to visit Armoury Museum. The beautiful museum, which was one of the largest armories of the city several centuries ago, now stores approximately 30 000 priceless artifacts. Huge halls of Armoury Museum have become home to numerous guns, swords, lances, pistols, as well as armor and helmets. Some exhibits were made more than three centuries ago and have been stored here since the foundation of the museum.

Schlossberg Mountain is an interesting attraction. It is sometimes referred to as Castle Mountain. Here, at an altitude of 400 meters, several centuries ago was built a beautiful castle. Today travelers can get to the top of the mountain by funicular or make a walk, which certainly leave a lot of impressions. There is an observation deck right in front of the castle, from which visitors will admire beautiful panoramic views of the city.

Burg Castle is a no less interesting architectural object. The castle is located east of the city's main square. The building was constructed in the 15th century, but the castle was repeatedly reconstructed during its long history. Today tourists have a wonderful opportunity to walk through the cozy courtyard of the castle and observe the incredible decoration of its inner premises. A few words should be said about the city's main square, Karmeliterplatz, which got its name from an ancient monastery. In the end of the 18th century the premises, which belonged to the monastery, were converted into police stations, but the square located in front of the buildings has retained its name until today.
