Seasons Greetings
Dear members and friends of the Austrian Rover Club,
At this time of reflection, we would like to thank you for your enthusiasm, your passion and your solidarity with our club. Together we can look back on an eventful year full of exciting activities, shared adventures and unforgettable moments.
May the Christmas season bring you peace, joy and time with your loved ones.
For the New Year, we wish you health, happiness and time for all things you would like to do.
Your ÖRC Executive Board
Preliminary information to the International Rover Meeting 2025
The ÖRC invites all friends of the Rover brand to participate in the International Rover Meeting from 22 May to 25 May 2025 in Baden near Vienna.
Baden is located 30 kilometres south of Vienna, in the middle of the sun-drenched wine-growing region of the Thermenregion in the Vienna Woods Biosphere Reserve. Once an imperial summer residence, the city of Baden offers first-class accommodation, a wide range of cultural and culinary delights, as well as modern wellness oases. Baden was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List by the World Heritage Committee in 2021 as the Great Spa Towns of Europe.
Games, excitement and culture round off the offer. Whether in the sophisticated Casino Baden, at the international trotting race, on some of the most beautiful golf courses in Austria, in the theatre or at the spa concert.
We deliberately chose this location to avoid the traffic in Vienna but at the same time to offer the opportunity to visit Vienna as part of the International Rover Meeting.

On Saturday we will go to Dörgicse to a private collection of vintage cars, then to Herend to the Porcelain Museum, then to Veszprém, the capital of culture, with a visit to the old town and back to the hotel.
On Sunday we will return home via Tihany and Hegyestű.
Tehát irány Magyarország - So head on to hungary
Invitation Seasons Closing Rally
Albert and Andreas have put together an extremely attractive end-of-season trip for us. We meet on October 29th between 9am and 10am at the Hotel Post in Kirchschlag in the Buckligen Welt. The highlights are Heiligenbrunn, home of the Schilcher, the Pinkataler wine route, Maria Weinberg with the chapel and viewing platform and end the exit in the town of Schlaining. There we end the day in conviviality. We start the next day with a delicious breakfast in the hotel and a subsequent tour of the castle, which is included in the room price.
We would be delighted if large numbers of you would take part in the event.
Let's start into the new season
As announced, we start the 2022 season with our trip to Grado. We start on Friday after a hopefully relaxed arrival in the foyer of the Hotel Laguna Palace and from there we go to the yacht club for an aperitif and then dinner. On Saturday we go to the Collio and the Goriska Brda through vineyards and idyllic country roads to a wine tasting in the Tunella winery and back to Grado to end the day with dinner together.
Update to the invitation to the international Rover Meeting in Chemnitz
Unfortunately, a problem with the hotel arose as part of the organization for the International Rover Meeting from May 26th to 28th, 2022 and therefore the venue was changed to Chemnitz. You can find the invitation as a download for this entry.
The ÖRC will sponsor all those participants who will take part in the event. How and in what form the sponsorship will look like, we will decide at the general assembly.
Invitation General Assembly
We would like to cordially invite you to our General Assembly on February 19, 2022, from 5 p.m. By general request, this year's General Assembly will again take place in the Hotel Donauhof in Emmersdorf. We have reserved a contingent of rooms and we ask you to make the reservation yourself. In case you are unable to attend the General Assembly in person for various reasons, we will hold the General Assembly in hybrid (combination with video conference).
In the sense of an active club life, we ask you to participate actively and numerously.
Invitation to the Autumn Rally, September 24 - 26th, 2021
Dear Members,
the call for tenders for the autumn rally is now online. You have already received the invitation by e-mail and we will also inform you via Whatsapp. Fritz Pichler would be pleased to welcome many members to the autumn rally. Demanding routes, historic buildings, good food and a meeting with good friends await the participants.
Invitation to the seasons closing rally
Dear members and friends of the ÖRC,
Reinhard has agreed to organize the seasons closing rally to Eastern Styria. The program is now online and will be delivered to you via the various channels. Please register quickly, as the rooms are only reserved for us at short notice.
On to an eventful autumn
Seasons opening Rally
Contrary to expectations, the year 2021 also starts with cancellations of major events in which we wanted to participate. For this reason, we have considered an alternative and Albert and Andreas have developed a program that can and will withstand all adversity.
We start this year with our Guglhupf rally in the Burgenland area and as a date we have planned the 16th of May 2021. The program can be downloaded from the homepage.

Dear Rover-Friends!
A difficult year for club activities is coming to an end. Many things could not be discussed or implemented as we would have liked.
From today's perspective, it is not yet clear what impact this pandemic will have on club life in 2021, whether events are possible and, if so, under what conditions. However, we assume a gradual approach to normality and therefore have to set and plan the next dates.
The date for the general meeting has been set, but whether a face-to-face meeting or a video conference will be chosen is currently not clear and must be legally questioned. It would also be conceivable to postpone the General Assembly to the seasons opening rally in order to gain time. The general assembly is so important to the club because a new board has to be elected.
Think positively and stay negative!
