Lake Loop tour along Europe’s warming bathing lakes

The south of Carinthia invites you to enjoy unforgettable holiday moments in one of Austria’s sunniest holiday regions. Families and amateur athletes love the leisurely cycle routes around the lakes and along the famous Drau Cycle Path, and the slightly hilly themed trails and day tours are ideal for young bikers to explore. Südkärnten is known as a biker’s paradise with more than 1,250 km of bike and mountain bike trails, including one of Europe’s longest mountain bike flow country trails on the Petzen. A different kind of view, namely one of the remains of the former sea floor, can be enjoyed on a hike through Geopark Karawanken. The interactively designed park with its million-year-old rock is part of the UNESCO network and one of only three transnational Geoparks in Europe.

On this stage the Carinthian Lake Loop leads 28 km through a varied southern Carinthian landscape, circling three out of four lakes. Highlights of the tour are Eberndorf Abbey which dates back 900 years, the Gösselsdorfer See known for its healing properties and Europe’s warmest bathing lake of course, Lake Klopein. It’s worth taking a detour to Turnersee Bird Park if you are travelling with kids. The region’s second bike loop covers 22 km to the Drau river, beginning and ending in Seelach by Lake Klopein. You cycle along the Drau Cycle Path to the impressive bridge across Völkermarkt reservoir, Carinthia's third largest body of water which was created by damming the Drau, always accompanied by a view of the Karawanken.
