## For summit seekers

                            
                                                            
                                    

The town of Villach is surrounded by a wonderfully beautiful mountain world that is just waiting to be explored by you. Whether on leisurely walks, on easy to demanding hiking routes, on mountain tours or even climbing via ferratas – the unspoilt surroundings are a fascination in themselves and will certainly make you forget the stress of everyday life.

Close by rise the Gerlitzen Alpe, the Dobratsch, the Dreiländereck, the Mittagskogel and the Verditz, from which you can enjoy a magnificent far-reaching view and admire the landscape. Fresh air, glorious hiking trails and wonderful weather – that promises relaxation for the whole family!

For a short stop along the way, one of the many mountain huts is a good choice, where you can recharge your reserves of energy and treat yourself to local delicacies. You will be delighted by Carinthian hospitality and cuisine.

You can reach both borders in less than half an hour by car. Tarvisio in Italy is around 40 kilometres away.

That depends on your plans. Swimming works from June to September, hiking from May to October, and in December the Villacher Advent is worth a visit.

The Terra Mystica show mine, the Kärnten Therme, the ATRIO and the Villach museums do not depend on the weather.
