Alpine traditions
Even the very first settlers in the alpine regions of Western Austria preferred to live at high altitudes. It was more difficult to get to them than in the valleys, which were often swampy, prone to mudflows and without paths. Thus, the supposedly insurmountable borders of the mountains were already conquered in the early history of the region, and the region was divided in half by trade routes stretching to the Mediterranean Sea. The best evidence of this was the discovery in 1991 of Ötz Ice, whose body was discovered at an altitude of 10,500 feet on the Ötztal Alps glacier, and which traded about 5,300 years ago in the area surrounding Lake Garda.
The way that Ötzi moved between different valleys and levels of vegetation lives on to this day in many of the “moving” traditions of alpine culture. These practices are often closely associated with cattle breeding, which from the very beginning has been a decisive economic factor for settlers. For example, mountain «epaulettes for cattle» are one of the most striking traditions that are still preserved in the alpine regions of Austria. In early summer, in the vicinity of Witsun, pastoralists and milkmen drive cows to mountain meadows, and in mid-September, animals are usually driven back to the valley. The last stage, in particular, is accompanied by festive ceremonies. If the summer has passed without any serious incidents, the herds are specially designed for this occasion. With cows with a headdress from dwarf pine, as well as with thistle and milkweed.
Geography of Austria

Austria is mainly a mountainous country due to its location in the Alps. Central Eastern Alps, Northern Alps Limestone and Southern Alps Limestone are all partially in Austria. Of the total area of Austria (84,000 km 2 or 32,433 sq. Miles), only about a quarter can be considered low-lying, and only 32% of the countrys territory is below 500 meters (1640 feet). The Alps of western Austria are somewhat giving way to the lowlands and plains in the eastern part of the country.
Austria lies between 46 ° and 49 ° north latitude and 9 ° and 18 ° east longitude.
It can be divided into five regions, the largest of which is the Eastern Alps, which make up 62% of the countrys total area. The Austrian foothills at the foot of the Alps and the Carpathians account for about 12%, and in the east, the foothills and areas adjacent to the periphery of the Pannoni lowland account for about 12% of the total land area. The second large mountainous region (much lower than the Alps) is located in the north. Known as the Austrian granite plateau, it is located in the central part of the Bohemian Mass and makes up 10% of the territory of Austria. The Austrian part of the Vienna basin is the remaining 4%.
In phytogeographic terms, Austria belongs to the central European province of the Circumboreal region within the Boreal kingdom. According to WWF, the territory of Austria can be divided into four ecoregions: mixed forests of Central Europe, mixed forests of Pannonian origin, coniferous and mixed forests of the Alps and broad-leaved forests of Western Europe.
