Central Carinthia, where paths grow!
Central Carinthia is characterised by gentle mountain landscapes, cultural treasures, historic buildings and warm, clear bathing lakes in idyllic locations. In summer, the landscape is unspoilt and the Saualpe is probably one of the most beautiful and unspoilt areas in the south of Austria.
The winter programme in Central Carinthia offers many different activities: Skiing, ski tours, snowshoe hikes, cross-country skiing, ice skating, Advent magic and top culinary delights. Conquer the glittering winter landscape and discover the uniqueness and natural wonders of Central Carinthia.
The cultural offer in Central Carinthia is enormous. Museums with unique exhibitions tell of the developments of mankind, show historical collections from the Renaissance and tell of foreign cultures and peoples. The Craigher experience manufactory spoils the palate with the finest chocolates and the Haimburger wild herb garden reveals the power of local nature.
