The perfect mix for a varied family holiday

Are you looking for a special holiday region? Then the holiday region with its breathtaking mountains and its beautiful lakes is the perfect destination for you. Lakes such as the Wörthersee , the Millstätter See, the Ossiacher See or the Weissensee are popular excursion tips, because they not only offer carefree bathing fun for the whole family, but also invite you to take water sports activities and boat trips . All of this is made particularly enjoyable by the beautiful Alpine backdrop.

But even away from the lakes with their crystal clear water and their beautiful "beaches" there are wonderful destinations that make it easy to enjoy family time. Whether a hike in the Tauern National Park or a cross-border hike, between flowering mountain meadows and spectacular peaks you can enjoy the peace and quiet of nature and the clear mountain air invites you to breathe deeply and relax. Numerous themed hiking trails , mysterious caves, wonderful mountain bike routes and unique flora and fauna ensure unforgettable holiday experiences in the Alpine nature. We recommend a farm holiday, which makes the holiday an experience for young and old.

Excursion tips for active and culture-loving families

With fascinating towns and charming villages, the holiday region enchants at first glance. The city of Klagenfurt on Lake Wörthersee, for example, attracts visitors with wonderful lidos and family-friendly attractions such as the Minimundus amusement park and the reptile zoo . The city also inspires with its city theater and the Carinthian Museum of Modern Art . A visit to the city of Villach, which is also on Lake Wörthersee, is no less charming. Inhabited since the Neolithic period, Villach is now known for its thermal baths and picturesque old town , which, with its interesting historical buildings and narrow streets, allows you to take a stroll through the city's past. You shouldn't miss a visit to the city museum, nor to the vehicle museum and the doll museum. Another special highlight is Ebner's house museum for mining.

The list of interesting towns and destinations for enjoying your free time is long. However, we would still like to recommend a few family-friendly destinations . A trip to the Grossglockner High Alpine Road is perfect for observing marmots up close in the wild . At the Mankei inn, a passionate marmot breeder, you can treat yourself to a snack and meet tame marmots . Falconry also has a long tradition in the Alps. Among other things, you can visit a falconry at Landskron Castle and get up close and personal with the birds of prey. We would also like to recommend a family trip to Turracher Höhe, because here you will not only find a playground, but also the Nocky Flitzer Alpine toboggan run and numerous other attractions.
