Visitor Tips: Travel & Accommodation in Obertauern on New Year's Eve

• Obertauern sits on the Radstädter Tauern pass road; winter tyres or snow chains are required in winter, and heavy traffic should be expected on New Year's Eve
• Most huts and bars are within walking distance in the village centre or right on the slopes, so you will not need a car after the party
• At around 1,700 metres it is very cold around New Year, so warm winter clothing, a hat and gloves are essential even for the evening on the terrace
• Book accommodation for New Year's Eve as early as possible; many hotels offer New Year packages that include a gala dinner
• Table reservations for festive dinners and hut parties are strongly recommended on this night, as seats fill up quickly
