The concept of Après-Ski originally comes from Austria. There are traditional ski huts, snow bars and and party venues in all ski areas.

Almost every ski area has a large swimming pool, often with a sauna and spa area. Austria is renowned for its varied choice of traditional dishes and drinks. The most well-known dishes include Wiener Schnitzel, Tafelspitz (boiled fillet of beef), Kärntner Kasnudeln (cheese pasta) and various types of dumplings. the most popular sweets include Mozartkugeln (praline-filled chocolates), Sachertorte, Salzburger Nockerln (soufflé) and several types of strudel.
