The Wörthersee:
Mediterranean flair in the south of Austria

On the east shore lays the State capital Klagenfurt, on the west shore the sophisticated seaside resort Velden. From the motorboat or the liner, you have a beautiful view of the landscape from the lake and the mountains surrounding it. On both, the north- and south shore you can spot countless mansions next to each other, which have already served as accommodation for one or two celebrities.

The warm bathing lake, known far beyond the borders, shimmers turquoise green in the sunlight. Relaxed holiday idyll dominates in the lidos, on the cycle path along the lake and on the water during a leisurely boat trip. What at first glance is reminiscent of the Caribbean can be found practically on the doorstep of the Thadeushof hotel. Some holiday guests may have flown many hours to get to know this unique natural and hilly landscape and enjoy it at every turn.

If you prefer, you can hike along an easily accessible forest path to the number one box seat on Lake Wörthersee, the Pyramidenkogel, or take the boat one stop further to Reifnitz and then comfortably take the bus up to the observation tower.
