Carinthian Mountains & Lakes

Panorama hiking in the sunny South of Austria

High peaks, countless sunny days a year and lakes wherever you look: the federal state of Carinthia has a lot to offer for an extensive hiking holiday. From Villach across the Alps, around the numerous lakes and back to the starting point after eight days: this is what the hike in the southernmost state has to offer. But not only the idyllic landscape is absolutely worth seeing. You should also experience the Carinthians with their relaxed philosophy of life and their sense of enjoyment.

Radiate with the sun, which is reflected in the sparkling lakes!

Details about a hiking holiday in the Carinthian mountains and lakes

Through the old town of Villach, once over the Draubrücke to the waterfront – you are already at the starting point for a leisure trip from Eurohike. Thanks to the geographical proximity to Italy, the Mediterranean influence can already be felt in Villach and Velden.

Together with the magnificent casino, the turquoise-blue Wörthersee completes the overall picture of Velden. Numerous hiking trails wind around the famous Carinthian city. On day three you can climb varied forest paths to the Teixelkreuz. From the Pyramidenkogel you have a fabulous view of the Carnic Alps and Slovenia.

It becomes spectacular when it says: from now on you go downhill! Adventurous hikers can slide down the observation tower at Pyramidenkogel via Europe’s highest closed slide then visit the famous Maria Wörth peninsula by boat.

On top of the adventurous experiences, enjoyment is clearly the focus of this hiking trip. This is how the jewel trail takes you to Radenthein in the Nockberge on day six. A cheese tasting awaits you in the Kaslab’n Nockberge dairy. Heavenly, delicious and definitely worth seeing!
