Arnold Schwarzenegger enjoys a cheeky smooch with a woman and a feast of sausages at Bavarian celebration at Austrian ski resort
Arnold Schwarzenegger enjoyed a cheeky smooch with a woman during a visit to an Austrian ski resort on Friday.
The Hollywood actor, 77, proudly held up a string of traditional white sausages as he tucked in at the annual Weißwurstparty in Going in his home country.
Sporting a thick white beard, the Terminator icon cracked a joke as he chatted with representatives from the Stanglwirt hotel.
Arnold wore a grey jacket over a navy sweater, adding a pair of mid blue jeans and a silver necklace, as he displayed the set of Bavarian sausages which were hung over a long wooden spoon.
He was joined by German actor and former bodbuilder Ralf Moeller, who donned an olive-coloured traditional Bavarian jacket.
The yearly event takes place before the Austrian Ski Federation downhill skiers take to the slopes and welcomes some 2,800 guests to try a range of traditional food.

It comes after the former bodybuilder continued to film his Christmas movie, The Man With The Bag, in New York City last week despite his Brentwood mansion continuing to be threatened by the LA fires.
The action icon sported a dyed white beard, festive jumper, bobble hat and a red coat as he filmed a scene as Santa Claus in Manhattan, days after thanking firefighters and emergency personnel for fighting the fires 'around the clock'.
The superstar's Brentwood, California mansion has been under threat from the Pacific Palisades fire which caused a wave of destruction and evacuations.
The star previously took to X to thank fans for their concern amid the disaster, writing: 'I really appreciate all of the kind messages and concern. But don’t worry about me, or my animals, and certainly not my house.
'I would rather you focus all of your thoughts on these heroic firefighters and first responders who are fighting an impossible battle around the clock.'
The fires were sparked by the Santa Ana winds, which saw gusts of up to 80 to 100mph as fire fighters tried to get a handle on the blazes.
Entire neighborhoods in Pacific Palisades and Altadena were wiped off the map due to the blazes, causing thousands to evacuate and at least 28 deaths.
Arnold, who is renowned for his many roles in action movies, is back filming his first festive film in nearly three decades.

Arnold previously appeared in the 1996 Christmas family comedy Jingle All The Way as a workaholic father on a mission to get his son a sold-out action figure, which results in him learning the real meaning of Christmas.
The former governor of California, who recently became a grandfather for the third time, joins a long list of actors that have played Father Christmas, including Ben Affleck, Tim Allen, Billy Bob Thornton and Kurt Russell.
News first broke that the Hollywood legend would be starring in another Christmas comedy back in March.
Arnold was married to Maria Schriver for 35 years but the couple separated in 2011 and divorced 10 years later.
He is father to five children: daughters Katherine, 35, and Christina, 31, and sons Patrick, 31, Christopher, 27, and Joseph, 27.
He shares all his children with Maria, apart from Joseph, whose mother is Mildred Patricia Baena, his longtime housekeeper.
