Sleeping & Eating
Most sleeping options are situated on Hochstrasse. Many have their own restaurants,
which means there's only a short hobble between table and bed.

Getting There & Around
If you're driving, consider taking the small back road northwest of Semmering to Höl-
lental via Breitenstein; the road winds its way down the mountain, passing under the rail-
way line a number of times and taking in the spectacular scenery you see on the train trip.
