Active summer
Mittelkärnten (Central Carinthia) has an extensive and varied hiking network. It combines pilgrimage trails and gentle alpine pastures with the delicious Carinthian Alpe-Adria cuisine. The Four Mountains Trail (Vierbergeweg) leads through the historic centre and takes 3 to 5 days to explore.The Adventure Water Trail (Abenteuer-Wasserweg) at Liebenfels in Glantal is a paradise for families. The Gurk Valley Herb Paradise (Gurktaler Kräuterparadies) was created in close cooperation with the local population to showcase forgotten paths and the unique herbal landscape.
A true Eldorado awaits cyclists. Well-signposted cycling routes take you past castles and palaces, through unspoiled valleys with rushing streams and all the way to lakes with crystal-clear water, such as Lake Längsee. If you require a little extra pedal power, you can rent an e-bike. Enjoy sampling local delicacies at the various restaurants and vintners along the way.
"The best way to get to know a region is through its cuisine and its culinary specialities."
No summer holiday would be complete without a splash in the water. The outdoor swimming pool in Althofen boasts one of the best water slides in Carinthia. Lake Längsee near St. Georgen nestles in a picturesque setting in the gentle hilly landscape and captivates visitors with its unspoiled beauty.
The 18-hole course of the Jacques-Lemans-Golfclub St. Veit/Längsee blends harmoniously into the natural surroundings, offering a varied game for both beginners and professionals with a magnificent view of Lake Längsee and the monastery of St. Georgen.
