Welcome

A tour for those who are looking for a combination of culture and entertainment. Starting from our hotel, we first cycle to the Klagenfurt Beach Spa, cross the Lendkanal and ride on the Schilfweg path, down Wörthersee Süduferstraße and Jugenddorferstraße to the nature park Maiernigg (approx. 3.8km with a slight slope at the end). Now, the same route is used on the way back up to the Lendkanal. On Lorettoweg and Tarviserstraße, past the stone bridge, Steinerne Brücke, to Christkönigskirche church and Elisabethsteg (approx. 6.8km).

From the Elisabethsteg footbridge, we ride over the Martin-Luther-Platz square with the Protestant Johannes Church, along Lerchenfelderstraße and Henselstraße to the botanic garden (approx. 1.3km). The garden is worth seeing with local flora, moor and water plants being shown. In a 500-m long gallery, the Mining Museum (entry through the botanic garden) shows about 10,000 mining exhibits and a big minerals exhibition.

From Kreuzberglkirche, a hiking trail leads up about 500m to the Volkssternwarte with an observation tower from which you can enjoy a marvellous view of Klagenfurt. We continue cycling to Kinstraße and Josefinumstraße up to St. Martin’s Church. We continue on Rankengasse and Heinzelgasse to the bike bridge over the railway line and the motorway. We return to our hotel again using Tarviserstraße and Villacherstraße (approx. 2.5km).

After these 14 kilometres, you have earned yourself some rest and relaxation on our shady terrace.

Particularly ideal for all who are looking to swim and picnic away from the crowds. Starting from our hotel, we cycle to Lendkanal passing the Klagenfurt Beach Spa. We cross the canal and make a right to ride on Schilfweg up to Süduferstraße on the southern shore of the Wörthersee (approx. 2.3 km).

When crossing Süduferstraße, we do not continue on Schilfweg but take Schleusenweg. This is where the long bike trail along Glanfurt (Sattnitz) starts. Numerous possibilities to picnic and swim invite to a restful break. We take Auenweg till we reach a level-crossing that separates us from the cars. Directly after the crossing, we take a right and cross a bridge to the Kalmusbad (approx. 5.4km).

Approx. 400m after the underpass of Völkermarkter Straße, we can see the Welzenegg Castle at Victor-Welzer-Platz (3.8km).

We continue along the shore on the right of the Glan to the premises of the State Hospital, which we reach when we take the second Glan bridge from the underpass of St. Veiter Straße.
