Hiking around Villach

Summits and beautiful alpine pastures in the Villach - Faaker See - Ossiacher See holiday region

Take special paths: on the Gerlitzen Alpe, the Dobratsch, the Dreiländereck as well as the Mittagskogel, the Nockberge and the Verditz. With endless far-reaching views and tangible impressions of nature. For fans of fantastic panoramas, spicy mountain air and the Carinthian joie de vivre.

Those who lace up their hiking boots will not only experience pure alpine peace in the Villach region, but also summit meetings of a special kind. And if your stomach is growling: the many alpine huts are like islands on the mountain - the perfect place for a little time out. Whether on long or short routes, on themed, family or long-distance hiking trails, or on the pilgrimage trails that are strongly rooted in the region - discover the mysterious mountain landscape with its hidden power spots and legendary wooded areas and let yourself be drawn into the spell of nature.

Walking in untouched nature gives you the time to find yourself, to open your senses, to free yourself from obligations and constraints, to consciously enjoy the moment of the moment. With every metre of ascent and descent. That is hiking in the Villach region.

Pure mountain peacefulness. On Verditz it is easy to press the stop button. Verditz is situated amidst the Carinthian Nockberge at an ideal altitude (600 - 1900 metres above sea level). Located above the lake Afritzer See, this wonderfully rolling terrain puts you in the mood to lace up your hiking boots. The declared philosophy at Verditz: always take it easy.

Slow Trails

Carinthia’s slow trails - beautiful footpaths that encourage walkers to relax and slow down - are, in the main, short but spectacular. The 14 slow trails scattered around Austria’s southernmost province are all sources of inspiration and regeneration. And four of these slow trails can be found in the holiday region of Villach - Faaker See – Ossiacher See.
