Watford will again return to the mountains of Austria for a pre-season tour ahead of the 2017/18 season, sources close to the club have confirmed.
The Hornets took on Union Berlin and Anzhi Makhachkala last summer as part of a week-long training camp on the continent, in two local stadia on either side of the country.
As revealed earlier, head coach Walter Mazzarri has been involved in organising arrangements for the trip, which is likely to be held around the end of July.
It is believed the spell away will again be regarded as a "private" tour, as it was last season.
