On Silvester (New Year’s Eve), merry neighbours spill outside, mingling with international guests as the champaigne flows on Panoramastraße (Panorama Street). Fireworks explode from street-level and mid-distances against the snowy mountains, for hours leading up to midnight. Special events and free concerts are held in this peak period.“Every year, I look forward to reuniting with the whole family at Haus Meilinger, in Obertauern. Here, surrounded by the mountains, time stands still, making room for what truly matters - closeness, quiet and the people we love. For me, there's hardly anything more beautiful than watching the sun rising over the snow-covered peaks or sinking golden behind them. And when the day draws to a close, we gather around the table together — tired from the movement in the fresh air, filled with a deep sense of connection, sharing a meal with the people closest to my heart, framed by laughter and stories — for me, that's the most beautiful moment of the day, the very heart of this special time of year.” – Janine
