Dog-friendly resorts in Austria

For example at Dorfresort Kitzbühel, Zillertal Suites Fügen or Hideaway Dachstein West, we are happy to welcome your dog. Below you will find a complete listing of all dog-friendly resorts. Your desired resort is not listed? Please contact the respective reception and ask for dog-friendly accommodations. Most ALPS RESORTS have individual apartments or houses where dogs are welcome. You will also find a brief summary for each of our resorts on our website.

Arrive and make yourself at home

To ensure that your dog feels at home with us from the very first minute, our animal guests can look forward to a doggy bag as a welcome gift. You will find more detailed information in the paragraph below. At FerienPark Kreischberg in Styria, we even offer your companions a culinary welcome package. Whilst most dogs do enjoy a good car ride, they are also happy to stretch out and rest once they have reached their final destination. After sniffing around the reception area and satisfying their curiosity, our holiday homes and holiday apartments – surrounded by plenty of green spaces – provide ample opportunity for dogs to enjoy a bit of peace & quiet and get some rest. Dog bowls and blankets are also available at the reception for you to borrow.

Exploring the region on four paws

Whether golden retriever, Yorkshire terrier, pug, dachshund or Labrador – man’s (and woman’s) best friend simply loves nature and being outdoors. Thanks to our moderate climate and glorious mountains, lakes and forests, Austria is an ideal holiday destination for dog lovers. You’ll quickly discover, there is definitely no shortage of footpaths and hiking trails for you to enjoy together. That said, nothing stands in the way of your upcoming getaway at one of our holiday homes or holiday apartments.

Anita – at the Erzberg Alpin Resort – will be happy to share her favorite tours and excursion destinations, which she loves to explore with her own dog Maci.

Doggy bag for the four-legged friends

For your holiday with your dog at ALPS RESORTS, selected resorts offer a welcome surprise for your four-legged friends. At check-in, you will receive a doggy bag worth € 18.00 per dog, consisting of the following contents:

  • A dog blanket for the sofa
  • A roll of poop bags for walking your dog
  • A packet of treats for the small appetite

Packing list: for your stay at a holiday home with your dog

Though we do provide bowls and blankets at our dog-friendly resorts. Most dogs feel more comfortable in a strange setting surrounded by utensils they are familiar with. And please don’t forget: For entry into Austria, your dog will require a microchip ID. With the following gear safely stowed away, you will be ready to set off on your well-earned holiday together:

Why Spend Your Vacation with a Dog in Austria?

Austria offers everything you might need for an unforgettable vacation with your dog. Ideal for families, couples, and singles who want to spend their holidays with their four-legged pal. The breathtaking nature and dog-friendly culture at and around our ALPS RESORTS guarantee an array of wonderful memories.

With impressive landscapes and such a rich culture, Austria is a perfect travel destination for dog owners. There are numerous activities specifically tailored to the needs of humans and dogs, making your vacation ultra-uncomplicated.

Pure Nature: Vacations with a Dog in Austria

For nature lovers as well as their dogs, Austria’s impressive landscapes and diverse leisure opportunities are perfect for relaxed outings. Together, you will be able to explore the countryside, picturesque valleys, and forests, and enjoy nature at its pristine best.

Many hiking trails, parks, and lakes in the various vacation regions are dog-friendly. Discover the sparkling mountain lakes, fragrant forests, and idyllic riverbanks. Bike tours with your dog as a companion are also possible.

Rules for a Relaxing Vacation with Your Dog – for Everyone

To ensure your vacation is as pleasant as possible for everyone involved, we have a few recommendations for your stay.

  • Leash Requirement: Dogs must be kept on a leash to ensure the safety of all guests and to avoid confrontations with other dogs.
  • Muzzle Requirement: In certain areas such as restaurants and public transportation, dogs should wear a muzzle to prevent unpredictable responses.
  • Clean Up After Your Dog: Owners must clean up after their dogs immediately and always bring waste bags with them.
  • Observe Quiet Times: Owners should respect quiet hours at night and during midday siesta.
  • Proof of Vaccination: Owners should have their dog’s vaccination records with them and ensure all required vaccinations are up-to-date.
  • Access to Specific Areas: Dogs are only permitted in designated areas of the resort or holiday complex, such as special dog zones or specific walking paths.
  • Feeding and Care: Owners are responsible for regular feeding, grooming, sufficient exercise, and hydration of their dogs.
  • Liability Insurance: Owners should have valid liability insurance for their dogs to cover potential damages.
  • Consideration: Owners should be considerate of other guests who may be afraid of dogs or suffer from allergies.
  • Hygiene: Dogs should not be allowed to lie on beds or upholstered furniture and are not allowed in bathrooms or bedrooms. Wellness facilities are not for dogs. Dirt in your accommodations should be cleaned up; any supplemental cleaning that is required will be billed.
  • Supervision: Dogs must be supervised on the property. Some guests may have a fear of dogs, so dogs should always be kept on a leash inside the resort and in communal areas (leash requirement)
  • Liability: Owners are liable for all damages and soiling caused by their dogs to the rental property, its furnishings, and the surrounding grounds.

These guidelines help ensure that vacations are pleasant and stress-free, both for dog owners as well as their fellow guests.

What Should I Be Especially Aware Of?

ALPS RESORTS makes no distinction with respect to dog breeds. All dog breeds are welcome, but we do wish to draw your attention to the following. In Austria, there are specific regulations and laws concerning the ownership and handling of certain dog breeds that are classified as dangerous. These regulations may vary by province. Here is some general information and a few examples:

General Regulations

  1. Listed Dogs: Certain dog breeds such as Pit Bull Terrier, American Staffordshire Terrier, Bull Terrier, and Rottweiler are classified as “dangerous dogs.”
  2. Muzzle and Leash Requirement: In many Austrian provinces, these dogs must always be kept on a leash in public and, in many cases, also wear a muzzle.
  3. Dog Handling License: Some provinces require owners of dangerous dog breeds to have a dog license that certifies they are able to control their dog safely.
  4. Special Permits: Keeping such dogs often requires a special permit, only granted after a behavioral assessment of the dog has been conducted.
