Villach - Faaker See - Ossiacher See region
Bike pleasure between mountain & lake
Cycling between mountains, lakes and along the Drau Cycle Path:
The Villach - Faaker See - Ossiacher See region offers pure biking pleasure in a landscape to fall in love with.
Mountain and lake experience
The mountains of the region are an extraordinary hiker's paradise. The Dobratsch and the Gerlitzen Alpe are also popular destinations for racing cyclists looking for challenging mountain roads. Nine warm lakes with clean drinking water promise pure bathing fun and offer the ideal refreshment after a long tour. The lakes can also be wonderfully circumnavigated by bike, and the 29 km long route around Lake Ossiacher See is particularly family-friendly and can also be shortened by boat.

City experience Villach
The center is Villach with its charming old town, just the thing for strollers and those interested in culture! The city is located directly on the Drau, Gail and Alpe-Adria cycle paths and is an ideal starting point for your cycling holiday. One way to recover from long bike tours is a short detour to the KärntenTherme Warmbad-Villach.
Unlimited bike enjoyment
The region is right at the intersection of Austria, Italy and Slovenia. Here you have the opportunity to cycle through all three countries in just one day. Whether comfortably by bike bus or as a demanding day tour - breakfast in Austria, lunch in Slovenia and in the evening a genuine Italian pizza - this three-country experience should not be missed.
