1. Status of compatibility with the requirements

These websites are partially compliant with conformance level AA of the “Web Content Accessibility Guidelines - WCAG 2.2” or with the applicable European Standard EN 301 549 V3.2.1 (2021-03) according to Directive (EU) 2019/882 of the European Parliament and of the Council of April 17, 2019 on accessibility requirements for products and services due to the following incompatibilities / exceptions.

2. Non- / partially accessible content

The content listed below is not accessible for the following reasons

(a) Incompatibility with accessibility regulations / Disproportionate burden

  • PDF and Word documents (especially older documents) used on the websites are not barrier-free. If you require content from one of our PDF or Word documents, please contact us. We will endeavor to provide you with the information in a different format.
  • The videos used on our websites are currently not barrier-free. The adaptation represents a disproportionate burden in terms of accessibility regulations. We will endeavor to make new videos accessible as soon as possible.
  • The alternative texts for images are sometimes not optimally selected and we are working on making all images with alternative texts accessible for screen reader users. Editors are being sensitized and trained accordingly. 
  • We endeavor to write our texts largely without abbreviations and foreign words. We also avoid cumbersome sentence constructions. If you find a text difficult to understand and therefore only partially accessible, please contact us. We will try to provide you with a version that is easy to understand.

The listed incompatibilities with the accessibility regulations will be corrected on an ongoing basis.

b) The content does not fall within the scope of the applicable legislation

  • Recorded time-based media, such as video and audio media, published before June 28, 2025.
  • Interactive maps are currently not accessible. However, you will find the information from the map accessible on our website.
  • Third-party content: Our websites are partly based on content that is integrated from external sources such as OutdoorActive, the social wall walls.io or our partner feratel for the display and booking of experiences, accommodation, events and brochures. Our content partners are required to provide texts and media in an accessible form. However, no statement can be made regarding the compatibility of this third-party content with accessibility regulations.

 

3. Creation of the declaration on accessibility

This declaration was prepared on June 25, 2025.

The declaration was prepared on the basis of an assessment of the compatibility of the websites with the BaFG carried out by Kärnten Werbung Marketing & Innovationsmanagement GmbH in the form of a self-test in accordance with WCAG 2.2.

 

4. Feedback and contact details

The content of the websites is subject to ongoing changes and additions. In order to take this into account, they are constantly reviewed by our employees. Usability and accessibility are very important to us.
