A delightful treat on picturesque Lake Ossiacher See

Vacation in Steindorf

The charming village of Steindorf is located on the northern shore of Lake Ossiache See, surrounded by the Gerlitzen Alpe and the Ossiacher Tauern mountains. Culture and architecture enthusiasts can follow in the footsteps of Günter Domenig in his stone house and be inspired by the many events in the nearby Ossiach Abbey .

Enjoy the breathtaking panorama of the mountains and the emerald green lake on a boat trip - or discover the untouched nature around Steindorf while hiking, cycling or on a SUP board.

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.

Culture

Carinthia is part of the Alpe-Adria region, which is characterized by a unique blend of rich history, diverse cultures and breathtaking landscapes. The area has no fixed borders, but is defined by its geographical features, which extend across parts of Austria, Italy, Slovenia and Croatia. The Villach - Faaker See - Ossiacher See region lies at the gateway to Italy and Slovenia and allows you to experience the historically evolved interplay of Germanic, Romanesque and Slavic cultures in a unique way.
