Winter holidays in Carinthia: Lots of fun off the slopes as well
And the Karglhof offers you a magical winter residence
A winter holiday in Carinthia without a snowball fight? Unthinkable! The snow doesn't just tickle the high spirits out of children. Winter hikes on glittering snow through a fairytale-like snow-covered world will keep you in a good mood, even if you're unsure about your movements. Winter hiking fans take their snowshoes and conquer the deep snow across the countryside and enjoy the most beautiful viewpoints. Romantics can hear bells ringing and horse snorting in their ears on a horse-drawn sleigh ride. Skid artists spin their pirouettes on the frozen Aichwaldsee, while curling fans try their luck at "shooting" and keep warm with mulled wine.
The most fun on a winter holiday in Carinthia: Tobogganing
The absolute hit for children and adults is tobogganing! Grab the Karglhof toboggan, which we would be happy to lend to you free of charge and you can try out a different toboggan run every day of your winter holiday, some with floodlights;- Kopein (length 1 km)
- Kanzianiberg (length 3 km)
- Baumgartnerhöhe (1,5 km)
- Pogöriach (length 1,4 km)
- Rodelwiese Oberaichwald
- Trabiner (length 1,5 km)
- Dreiländereck (length 8,4 km)
- Bad Bleiberg (length 700 m)
- Hundsmarhof Warmbad (length 4 km)
Our favorite is the Baumgartnerhöhe toboggan run - only 4 km from Karglhof - with its fantastic view of Lake Faaker See.
Hiking & Snowshoe hiking
Some find it even more beautiful to walk around Lake Faaker See in winter than in summer. The quiet romanticism, which lies above the mountain-lake landscape, has a very special magic. If you like hiking in snow-covered mountains: on the Villach ski mountains - Gerlitzen Alpe, Dreiländereck - there are numerous winter hiking trails. We especioally recommend winter hikes in the Dobratsch Nature Park. Beautiful hiking trails start at an altitude of 1,732 m - also to the summit house at 2,176 m above sea level. The nature park also offers one-of-a-kind nature experiences such as snowshoe tours with inoculars, guided by a nature park ranger, or a magical moonlight snowshoe tour up to the Zehnernock.
