How to Time Your Trip to Vienna
General Considerations
- 1). Late spring and fall are good times to visit Vienna. The summer has the occasional heat wave and a steady flow of tourists, but is otherwise pleasant. Come to Vienna at Christmastime and find a tastefully decorated city; with a bit of snow lying about, it becomes truly magnificent. The average January low is 27F/-3C and the average July high is 76F/24C. Nearby ski resorts boom from mid-December until late March.
- 2). Check out what festivals, expositions, and live performances are happening (see below).
- 3). Take care of your flight, transportation and accommodations.
- 4). Check the weather forecast for Vienna shortly before leaving, and pack accordingly.
