Alcohol. Especially beer is slightly stronger than in the US and relatively cheap. The same goes for wine in some regions. Don't drink yourself to coma like a friend of mine did once!And it's really easy to get - I've seen kids getting beer for their parents in a supermarket.Legal drinking age is 16(much younger than, say the US...)
When doing a mountain tour be sure to prepare yourself! Choose one according to your constitution (so you won't break down). Inform yourself about the weather (you don't want to get caught in a thunderstorm). Wear appropiate clothing like hiking boots, long trousers are also a good idea. One should also pack some sunscreen(sun can be quite intense when being high up) and a pullover (it can get quite cold) and some rain protection (don't take an umbrella - it's not handy if you got to climb a bit).As cell phones work on most mountains it's a good idea to take one with you - so you can call help (the emergency number is 112) or phone home and boast a bit ;-)
don't go drinkin in madrid, then ask some morroccan kids who you think are spanish kids for directions to the box stop. they tend to rob you.
In the skiing regions you should take care of Lawines.Don't go off the beaten path.If you drive with your car take care when it is snowy ...
In Austria it's really dangerous to drive a car without mounted snow tires between October and May.It snows sometimes also in cities like Vienna or Bregenz.
OK so this stag was fenced in, but beware the fences were not that secure. When driving PLEASE be careful.
Have too much schnapps and beer and you could end up as part of the band!!
This is a safe country. Anyway be careful in the rail stations and in crowded tourist places, there are a few persons just ready to steal you
There are no real dangers as Austria is reported one of the safest countries in all of Europe! Austria has a very low crime rate, especially in regard to violent crime.
DONT MOO at the cows, they tend to moo back and rub themselves on a tree, you should have seen how far this cow went :-)
