Hello!!! My partner and I (both in our mid 20s) are travelling to Austria this Dec for christmas. Its our first time for euro winter and we would LOVE all the tips please.

Our dates are 20th dec to around the 6th of jan. So far we were thinking:

Vienna - 3 nights

Salzburg - 3 nights over christmas (potentially day trip to Hallstatt or St. Wolfgang)

Innsbruck - 3 nights and ski here?

Finish in Munich

** Trying to work out whether to add Budapest, Prague or Zermatt/ Lucerne as one other stop.

Genuinely any tips or recs are so appreciated. Where is best to be for Xmas? Do places shut down for boxing day etc? Is Hallstatt worth a day visit? What are the must do's in each place? Also restaurant/ activity recs

We are open to all suggestions/ other countries too. THANK YOU!!!!

Our dates are 20th dec to around the 4th of jan. So far we had in mind to fly into Munich, then go Salzburg, daytrip to Hallstatt, Innsbruck, Vienna, maybe Budapest. and then maybe go all the way up to Lapland for a few nights?? Any advice is sooo welcomed please. We are keen on exploring the cities, learning the culture, food, christmas markets and a day or two or skiing. We are open to all suggestions/ other countries too. THANK YOU!!!!
