Natural paradise holiday region Villach: The mountains and the lakeshore tempt you to relax

Wonderful alpine air, bathing lakes with drinking water quality, in between extensive hiking trails and bike trails. The Villach region in southern Austria is a true natural paradise. Up on the alp you can enjoy the view of the Alps-Adriatic mountains, below the water of the lakes, which are up to 26 degrees warm, glisten in the sun. Nature and sport, culture and enjoyment: the region at the border triangle with Italy and Slovenia makes every day of your vacation special.

The Kanzelbahn cable car leads from the shores of Lake Ossiach to the Gerlitzen Alpe, a family adventure mountain with a high ropes course. Starting in May, the lake will tempt you to take a refreshing swim - and to cycle around the cycle path in every season. The turquoise Faaker See with its idyllic island in the middle of the lake is almost heavenly. And if the sun ever takes a break: The KärntenTherme in Villach-Warmbad also offers bathing fun and a large fitness and wellness area. The heart of the region beats in the Drau town of Villach with its picturesque pedestrian zones and cafes. Here you can feel the joy of life in Carinthia and celebrating is very important. Enjoy the unique Carinthian cuisine in the many restaurants and inns as well as the wonderful regional products on the local markets.
